string - TypeError: Type str doesn't support the buffer API -
there's python script (found here) i'm using show laptop's battery percentage part of $prompt. works charm python (aka version 2). doesn't work python3. problem because using pyenv , pyenv-virtualenv work on projects , python command points 3+ version. produces these errors in terminal when battery script evaluated:
traceback (most recent call last): file "/usr/local/bin/batcharge.py", line 9, in <module> o_max = [l l in output.splitlines() if 'maxcapacity' in l][0] file "/usr/local/bin/batcharge.py", line 9, in <listcomp> o_max = [l l in output.splitlines() if 'maxcapacity' in l][0] typeerror: type str doesn't support buffer api here file, it's pretty short if can identify going on.

according shell, returned output.splitlines() before program crashes:

namely, bytes(l, 'utf-8') , l.encode('utf-8') not work. please advise.
quite simply, prepend strings in optional predicate of list comprehension b encode them bytes instead of strings. such, lines 9 , 10 become:
o_max = [l l in output.splitlines() if b'maxcapacity' in l][0] o_cur = [l l in output.splitlines() if b'currentcapacity' in l][0] although correctly realized there issue list comprehension, wasn't able figure out what; answer shamefully hiding in plain sight. kept trying convert being stored in l instead of paying attention string in code. leaving here in hopes of helping others.
