to_str_from_str_like(obj, obj_name)

Convert string-like input object to an instance of the class str.

If the input object is not string-like, then a TypeError exception is raised with the message:

The object ``<obj_name>`` must be an instance of the class `str` or
`bytes`.

If the input object is an instance of the class bytes, then said object is decoded to an instance of the class str via obj.decode("utf-8").

Parameters:

objany type

Input object.

obj_namestr

Name of the input object.
