Refactor pkg_resources usage to importlib.resources #119

Open tkilias opened 2 years ago

tkilias commented 2 years ago

Background

At the moment, we use pkg_resources to access package resources. https://github.com/exasol/integration-test-docker-environment/blob/0e240365cf81e112d47291aa0acdc5ac5d2105aa/exasol_integration_test_docker_environment/lib/test_environment/spawn_test_database.py#L211
With python 3.7 a better alternative is available https://docs.python.org/3/library/importlib.html#module-importlib.resources
For older python version there is a backport available https://importlib-resources.readthedocs.io/en/latest/index.html

Acceptance Criteria

When transitioning to python 3.7 usepkg_resources importlib.resources instead of pkg_resources
