Loaders can support resources by implementing the :class:`ResourceReader` .. note::
abstract base class.
This module provides functionality similar to `pkg_resources
<https://setuptools.readthedocs.io/en/latest/pkg_resources.html>`_ `Basic
Resource Access
<http://setuptools.readthedocs.io/en/latest/pkg_resources.html#basic-resource-access>`_
without the performance overhead of that package. This makes reading
resources included in packages easier, with more stable and consistent
semantics.
The standalone backport of this module provides more information
on `using importlib.resources
<http://importlib-resources.readthedocs.io/en/latest/using.html>`_ and
`migrating from pkg_resources to importlib.resources
