pytest fixture to make pytest-datafiles return a pathlib.Path

pytest-datafiles · PyPI is nice but returns a py.path instead of pathlib.Path.

Tried to write something to make it convert automatically.

ASSETS_DIR = Path(__file__).parent / "assets"

@pytest.fixture
def pfiles(datafiles):
    # Fixture that converts pytest-datafiles' py.path into a pathlib.Path
    return Path(str(datafiles))

@pytest.mark.datafiles(PROJ_DIR)
def test_read_meta_json(pfiles):
	assert do_sth_with_file(pfiles)

First nontrivial fixture I write, maybe a really bad idea to do it like that. This feels like a general use case and someone had to have had this problem
