fileutils-dir 0.1.3

Small utilities for listing files in directories

fileutils

Small utilities for working with files and directories.

Currently provides a helper to list files in one or more directories, optionally filtered by file extension or file type.

Installation (local development)

pip install -e .

Usage

from fileutils import in_dir

# All files in current directory
files = in_dir()

# All Python files
files = in_dir(extensions=[".py"])

# Files by type
files = in_dir(types=["code"])

# Multiple directories
files = in_dir(directories=["src", "tests"], types=["code"])

Behavior

• Defaults to the current directory (.)
• If no extensions or types are provided, all files are returned
• If both are provided, the result is the union of both filters
• Only files are returned (directories are ignored)

Supported types

Common file groups such as:

• code
• text
• image
• pdf
• audio
• video
• archive
