Writing files - mrmike1989 - 2016-01-12
How do you write a file?
I'm getting:
Quote:IOError: (22, "invalid mode ('w') or filename", 'special://profile/addon_data/my.addon/test.txt')
I'm using:
Code:
text_file = open('special://profile/addon/addon_data/my.addon/test.txt', "w+")
text_file.write("hello")
text_file.close()RE: Writing files - ironic_monkey - 2016-01-12
you cannot use python fileio on vfs paths. pass the path through xbmc.translatePath() first.

Thanks, it's working now.
