EPFImporter invalid literal

I'm trying to import the application full feed from EPF. I only downloaded the application.tbz from the link provided by apple. This is the command I use to import the application file:

./EPFImporter.py -f /mnt/c/Users/vic4ever/Downloads/application/itunes20170913

This is what I get when I ran the above command

I don't know where the literal '2074265\x02' comes from. Is it from the application file? Do I need to specify the record and field delimiters? Or is it the case that the default values are sufficient?

Solution

  • I don't know why but removing -f solves the problem. The correct command should be:

    ./EPFImporter.py /mnt/c/Users/vic4ever/Downloads/application/itunes20170913
