Hi all, I don't need zip_safe=False for open functions if the file is already included in the pex, right?

The

open

builtin does not understand zipfile entries; so to access a file included in a PEX zipfile you'll need to use a resource API like

pkg_resources

from setuptools (https://setuptools.readthedocs.io/en/latest/pkg_resources.html#basic-resource-access). If you want to use

open

then you do need

zip_safe=False

.

ok, thanks ^_^
