Description
Describe the bug
I quite think this is a bug, though I am surprised no one stumbled upon it before.
What I observe is, if I fake a file that's in a directory that does exist on the real filesystem, then sqlite3 can open it. No problem, or almost, because the database file is then really created on the real filesystem (unexpected).
But if I fake a file in a directory that does not exist on the real filesystem, then sqlite3 cannot open it (raises: sqlite3.OperationalError: unable to open database file).
Is this a bug, or maybe a compatibility problem with sqlite3?
I have used pathlib.Path and os.makedirs(), I thought they're both supported in pyfakefs. I have replaced the call to os.makedirs() by Path.mkdir(), I had to add the parents=True in order for this second option to work, but the results are the same.
How To Reproduce
Here's the complete test file (note: the only difference between the passing and the failing tests is the directory's name: in the passing test, /home/nico/tests/db/ is an existing directory on my real filesystem; whereas in the failing test, /home/nico/tests/db2/ does not exist):
import os
import sys
import sqlite3
from pathlib import Path
class DBCM:
"""
Simple Context Manager for sqlite3 databases.
"""
def __init__(self, path):
self.path = path
self.conn = None
self.cursor = None
def __enter__(self):
self.conn = sqlite3.connect(str(self.path))
self.cursor = self.conn.cursor()
return self.cursor
def __exit__(self, exc_class, exc, traceback):
self.conn.close()
def test_passing(fs):
testdb_path = Path('/home/nico/tests/db/blank.sqlite3')
assert not testdb_path.exists()
os.makedirs(testdb_path.parent, mode=0o770)
# testdb_path.parent.mkdir(mode=0o770, parents=True)
testdb_path.touch(mode=0o777)
assert testdb_path.exists()
sys.stderr.write(f'type(testdb_path)={type(testdb_path)}\n')
with DBCM(testdb_path) as cursor:
print(f"alright, cursor is {cursor}")
def test_failing(fs):
testdb_path = Path('/home/nico/tests/db2/blank.sqlite3')
assert not testdb_path.exists()
os.makedirs(testdb_path.parent, mode=0o770)
# testdb_path.parent.mkdir(mode=0o770, parents=True)
testdb_path.touch(mode=0o777)
assert testdb_path.exists()
sys.stderr.write(f'type(testdb_path)={type(testdb_path)}\n')
with DBCM(testdb_path) as cursor:
print(f"alright, cursor is {cursor}")
