a simple package to get all files with given file extension in a directory

Project description

READ ME

tests PyPI version codecov

This is a very simple package which is basically a wrapper around glob; it simply gets all the files with extension matching a list of extensions in a given directory. I found that I was including functionality like this in so many other projects I might as well just make it a package. Plus I wanted to play with poetry.

install

pip install get_all_files

Examples

get all jpg files in home directory

from get_all_files import get_all_files
from pathlib import Path

home_dir = Path('~').expanduser()
jpg_files = get_all_files(home_dir, 'jpg')

get all jpg AND png files in home directory

from get_all_files import get_all_files
from pathlib import Path

home_dir = Path('~').expanduser()
jpg_files = get_all_files(home_dir, ['jpg', 'png'])

get all jpg files starting with 'a' in home directory

from get_all_files import get_all_files
from pathlib import Path

home_dir = Path('~').expanduser()
jpg_files = get_all_files(home_dir, 'jpg', file_name='a*')

get absolute file paths instead of file names

from get_all_files import get_all_files
from pathlib import Path

home_dir = Path('~').expanduser()
jpg_files = get_all_files(home_dir, ['jpg', 'png'], return_absolute_filepath=True)

Loop over multiple directories

This package is not recursive - if you want to process multiple directories you have to do it yourself:

from get_all_files import get_all_files
from pathlib import Path
import os

home_dir = Path('~').expanduser()
subfolders = [f.path for f in os.scandir(home_dir) if f.is_dir()]
extension = 'txt'  # why not
all_files = []
for folder in subfolders:
    files = get_all_files(folder, extension, return_absolute_filepath=True)
    all_files.extend(files)
