how to fix - error: bad escape \u at position 0

问题

Hello I'm trying to export a gmap html using ipywidgets in jupyter notebook but am encountering the following error: - error: bad escape \u at position 0.

I'm new to programing and could use help fixing whatever is causing this error to occur. If there is any easier way to go about exporting the html file I'm happy to change approaches.

Thanks

Here is a snippet of the code: I can add the entire thing if its helpful.

import pandas as pd
import gmaps
from ipywidgets.embed import embed_minimal_html
from ipywidgets import IntSlider
gmaps.configure(api_key='XXXX')
pd.options.mode.chained_assignment = None  # default='warn'


file2 = '005 lat:long.csv'
state2 = pd.read_csv(file2)
state2 = state2.rename(columns={'Address1': 'address', 'City':'city', 
                                'State':'state', 'Zip': 'zip'})

storenumbs = state2['Store'].str.split('#', expand=True)
state2 = state2.join(storenumbs)
state2 = state2.drop(['Store', 0], axis=1)
state2 = state2.rename(columns={1: 'store_#'})
state2['store_#'] = state2['store_#'].astype(int)

fig = gmaps.figure(center=(42.5, -71.4), map_type='TERRAIN', zoom_level=9.8)
scale = 4
one_layer = (gmaps.symbol_layer(low_points_lat_long, fill_color='red', stroke_color='red', scale= scale))
two_layer = (gmaps.symbol_layer(low_med_points_lat_long, fill_color='red', stroke_color='yellow', scale= scale))
three_layer = (gmaps.symbol_layer(med_high_points_lat_long, fill_color='yellow', stroke_color='green', scale= scale))
four_layer = (gmaps.symbol_layer(high_points_lat_long, fill_color='green', stroke_color='green', scale= scale))


fig.add_layer(one_layer)
fig.add_layer(two_layer)
fig.add_layer(three_layer)
fig.add_layer(four_layer)

fig
embed_minimal_html('export.html', views=[fig]

error: bad escape \u at position 0

回答1:

This is an error in Python 3.7, and an issue with Python 3.6 (but it is OK with Python 2.7).

If you use a raw string (prefixed by "r") for the replacement in re.sub function, then the \u is escaped. For instance, r'\u003c\1' is like '\\u003c\\1': this is a string '\u', followed by '003c' and \1.

The solution is to write:

return script_escape_re.sub('\u003c\\1', s)

Quoting the documentation:

Changed in version 3.7: Unknown escapes in repl consisting of '\' and an ASCII letter now are errors.
