Gtk.CssProvider.load_from_data TypeError: Item 0: Must be number, not str

问题

I was getting this error when running my gtk project from a terminal with python3 myapp.py, but not when launching my app via Sublime-Text-3's python build system! How weird.

TypeError: Item 0: Must be number, not str

The code at fault was essentially:

color_scheme = {'fg_color':'#ffffff', 'bg_color': '#000000',}
css = """
    GtkLabel {
        color: %(fg_color)s;
        background: %(bg_color)s;
    }
"""

# ...

cssprovider = Gtk.CssProvider()
css_data = css % color_scheme
cssprovider.load_from_data(css_data)

回答1:

As mentioned in other answers (including yours), style_provider.load_from_data() is expecting bytes, not a string.

Instead of encoding your unicode string, you can define you CSS as a byte stream directly:

css = b"""
        #MyWindow {
            background-color: red;
        ...
    """

(Notice the b)

Just in case somebody wants a complete example which works and where you can see something.

TypeError: Item 0: Must be number or single byte string, not str

Well, if Python wants a byte string, send it a byte string, not a unicode one. That is, b"""blah blah blah""".

Indeed, closing. Alternatively, if you have an (unicode) string you can also call .encode() on it to turn it into a byte array.

First attempt to use bytes(css_data) did not work, but

css_data.encode()

worked!
