Directory listing in python?

How about this: def list_files(dirpath): files = for dirname, dirnames, filenames in os. Walk(dirpath): files += os.path. Join(dirname, filename) for filename in filenames return files You could also do this as a generator, so the list isn't stored in its entirety: def list_files(dirpath): for dirname, dirnames, filenames in os.

Walk(dirpath): for filename in filenames: yield os.path. Join(dirname, filename) Finally, you might want to enforce absolute paths: def list_files(dirpath): dirpath = os.path. Abspath(dirpath) for dirname, dirnames, filenames in os.

Walk(dirpath): for filename in filenames: yield os.path. Join(dirname, filename) All of these can be called with a line like: for filePath in list_files(dirpath): # Check that the file is an XML file. # Then handle the file.

Thanks a lot!....... – Liza Jul 15 at 16:05.

If your subdirectories are softlinks, make sure you specify followlinks=True as an argument to os. Walk(..). From the documentation: By default, os.

Walk does not follow symbolic links to subdirectories on systems that support them. In order to get this functionality, set the optional argument 'followlinks' to true.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
