Travel any path and find some files

path-traveler is a simple package to walk and travel from any root path directory into all of its children directories and files coming in the journey and perform search operation to list down all available path(s) of the file(s).

Use in python code

Following are some of the sample examples to show the use of the path-traveler package. This package has a function named travelling which takes optional input 2 arguments. root_path is the first argument used to set the root directory path and find is the second argument used to search any file in the root directory and all of its children directories. The default is None which searches all files from root_path. Let's take a look.

>>> from path_traveler import travelling

>>> root_path = './sample'
    
>>> find = 'spec.json'

>>> journey = travelling(root_path=root_path, find=find)

>>> journey._fields
('root_path', 'cwd', 'absolute_paths', 'relative_paths', 'travel')

>>> root_path = journey.root_path

>>> current_working_directory = journey.cwd

>>> absolute_paths = journey.absolute_paths

>>> relative_paths = journey.relative_paths

>>> traveller = journey.travel
