When running the script, I get the following error. It seems that it isn't able to open the .kap files. I have tried with several files, all with the same result.

Hi Aun! I just checked with some of my own KAP files. Surprisingly for me the code still works fine.

As a matter of fact I decided to relocate this project to https://github.com/vadp/tilers-tools .

If you're still interesed then give it a try.
