Follow up to #2247.
@CompRhys informed me that due to #2247, Pymatgen is no longer installable in Google Colab which is locked to Python 3.7 while
typing.Literal
was only added in Python 3.8.There's a relatively recent but quiet issue tracking the ability to select different Python versions in Colab: googlecolab/colabtools#2165
In the meantime though, I assume Pymatgen wants to keep supporting Google Colab. I think the best solution for that would be to protect
Literal
imports withand then use the string form
"Literal"
in type hints. Happy to add those changes to this PR if that's acceptable.
