Suppress SyntaxWarning from invalid escape sequence

[JoakimJoensuu]

Bug description

"""Module docstring"""

from fastcore import script

print(script)

Configuration

No response

Command used

python3.12 -m venv .venv --clear
.venv/bin/python -m pip install pylint fastcore
.venv/bin/pylint file.py

Pylint output

<unknown>:32: SyntaxWarning: invalid escape sequence '\.'
<unknown>:33: SyntaxWarning: invalid escape sequence '\ '

--------------------------------------------------------------------
Your code has been rated at 10.00/10 (previous run: 10.00/10, +0.00)

Expected behavior

No following warnings:

<unknown>:32: SyntaxWarning: invalid escape sequence '\.'
<unknown>:33: SyntaxWarning: invalid escape sequence '\ '

If using Python 3.11, those errors are not raised.

If this is expected behavior, output needs some explanation.

Extra info

Warning seems to be raised because of these two lines: https://github.com/fastai/fastcore/blob/c9b4c088d3706569c076e7c197c724730be190ab/fastcore/script.py#L32-L33

But it's imported module, so pylint shouldn't raise this warning, right?

pylint uses Python to inspect the code.

As seen in the release notes, this is invalid code and can no longer be executed. Thus, pylint crashes on it as well.

Okay, thanks for explanation!

I don't know if this is wanted behavior, but luckily pylint exits with code 0 and still rates my code with grade 10/10.

But for now it's only a SyntaxWarning. It might be 5+ years before it ever becomes a SyntaxError. I'd be in favor of just catching the warning for now in pylint.
