I am running simple code to convert dxf to gpkg and I get the error below.  -am an trying to figure out how to add a bunch of options ( -f GPKG -append -update --config DXF_ENCODING CP1252 --config DXF_INCLUDE_RAW_CODE_VALUES TRUE --config DXF_TRANSLATE_ESCAPE_SEQUENCES FALSE --config DXF_MERGE_BLOCK_GEOMETRIES FALSE --config DXF_INLINE_BLOCKS TRUE -nlt LINESTRING -nln 32111_F)

But can't even figure out how to add the recommended skipfailures flag.  I tried adding

gdal_tools.config_options("-skipfailures")

but I get pylint tells me it is not callable.

Anyone use pygdaltools?  There is some documentation, but nothing showing you how to set these command line parameters.


import gdaltools

gdal_tools = gdaltools.ogr2ogr()
gdal_tools.BASEPATH = r"C:\Program Files\QGIS 3.16.16\bin"

gdal_tools.set_encoding("UTF-8")
gdal_tools.set_input(self.dxf_out_path)
gdal_tools.set_output(self.gpkg_out)
gdal_tools.execute()

And I get the ERROR:root:b"Warning 1: Layer creation options ignored since an existing layer is\r\n         being appended to.\r\nWarning 6: Normalized/laundered field name: 'EntityHandle' to 'EntityHa_2'\r\nERROR 1: Attempt to write non-linestring (GEOMETRYCOLLECTION) geometry to ARC type shapefile.\r\nERROR 1: Unable to write feature 0 from layer entities.\r\nERROR 1: Terminating translation prematurely after failed\r\ntranslation of layer entities (use -skipfailures to skip errors)\r\n"
