non-ascii-import-name (PLC2403)

Derived from the Pylint linter.

This rule is unstable and in preview. The --preview flag is required for use.

What it does

Checks for the use of non-ASCII characters in import statements.

Why is this bad?

The use of non-ASCII characters in import statements can cause confusion and compatibility issues (see: PEP 672).

Example

import bár

Use instead:

import bar

If the module is third-party, use an ASCII-only alias:

import bár as bar
