Ran into an issue while trying to build a plugin to render GeoJSON. I'm using pytest's tmp_path fixture, which is a pathlib.Path, to get a temporary database path. I was getting a weird error involving writes, but I was doing reads. Turns out it's the internal database trying to insert a Path where it wants a string.

My test looked like this:

```python @pytest.mark.asyncio async def test_render_feature_collection(tmp_path): database = tmp_path / "test.db" datasette = Datasette([database])

# this will break with a path
await datasette.refresh_schemas()

# build a url
url = datasette.urls.table(database.stem, TABLE_NAME, format="geojson")

response = await datasette.client.get(url)
fc = response.json()

assert 200 == response.status_code

```

I only ran into this while running tests, because passing in database paths from the CLI uses strings, but it's a weird error and probably something other people have run into.

The fix is easy enough: Convert the path to a string and everything works. So this:

```python @pytest.mark.asyncio async def test_render_feature_collection(tmp_path): database = tmp_path / "test.db" datasette = Datasette([str(database)])

# this is fine now
await datasette.refresh_schemas()

```

This could (probably, haven't tested) be fixed here by calling str(db.path) or by doing that conversion earlier.
