For r"\\host\share\test.py", the two slash conversion "file://host/share/test.py" is correct according to RFC80889 "E.3.1. <file> URI with Authority" [1]. In this case, req.host is "host", and req.selector is "/share/test.py". The four slash version "file:////host/share/test.py" is a known variant for a converted UNC path, as noted in RFC8089 "E.3.2. <file> URI with UNC Path". In this case, req.host is an empty string, and req.selector is "//host/share/test.py". There's another variant that uses 5 slashes for a UNC path, but urllib (or url2pathname) doesn't support it. --- [1] https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/rfc8089 ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue46654> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
