My package looks somewhat like this. 

Package
   tokenizer,py
   corpus.py
   __init__.py
   resources
     data.txt

I want to access data.txt from corpus.py. How should I do it with pkg_resources? Also do I need to create setup.py for package resources to work?

  • If you don't have `setup.py` you don't have a package. And if you don't have a package you don't need `pkg_resources`. See the accepted answer at the link above. – phd Apr 11 '18 at 13:41
