Python tutorial on how to get all files in folders

Preface

Use Python to get all files in a folder, you can useosModule orpathlibModule.

1. Use the os module

1. Introduce modules:

#Introduce os moduleimport os

2. Method to obtain the specified folder (excluding subfolders):

# Subfolder not includeddef list_files_in_directory(directory):
    for filename in (directory):
        filepath = (directory, filename)
        # Check if it is a file (exclude directory)        if (filepath):
            print(filepath)

list_files_in_directory(r'C:\Users\admin\Desktop\Folder 1')

3. Method to obtain all files in a folder (subfolder):

# Subfolderdef list_files(path):
    for root, dirs, files in (path):
        level = (path, '').count()
        indent = ' ' * 4 * level
        print('{}{}/'.format(indent, (root)))
        redundant = ' ' * 4 * (level + 1)
        for f in files:
            print('{}{}'.format(redundant, f))

list_files(r'C:\Users\admin\Desktop\Folder 1')

2. Use the pathlib module

1. Introduce modules:

#Introduce pathlib modulefrom pathlib import Path

2. Method to obtain the specified folder (excluding subfolders):

# Subfolder not includeddef list_files_in_directory(directory):
    directory_path = Path(directory)
    for file in directory_path.iterdir():
        # Check if it is a file (exclude directory)        if file.is_file():
            print(file)


list_files_in_directory(r'C:\Users\admin\Desktop\Folder 1')

3. Method to obtain all files in a folder (subfolder):

# Subfolderdef list_files(path):
    p = Path(path)
    for file in ('*'):  # Use rglob('*') to recursively find all files        print(file)
        
# Calllist_files(r'C:\Users\admin\Desktop\Folder 1')
