Search a filesystem using zero or more file and directory filters.
Project description
FSS will recursively scan the given directory for matching files and yield results as a generator. You may provide a list of include/exclude rules for files and/or directories.
The searching is done asynchronously from another process. This way, the searching and whatever you’re doing with the results may potentially run in parallel.
Usage
As Library
Example:
import fss.constants
import fss.config.log
import fss.orchestrator
root_path = '/etc'
filter_rules = [
(fss.constants.FT_DIR, fss.constants.FILTER_INCLUDE, 'init'),
(fss.constants.FT_FILE, fss.constants.FILTER_INCLUDE, 'net*'),
(fss.constants.FT_FILE, fss.constants.FILTER_EXCLUDE, 'networking.conf'),
]
o = fss.orchestrator.Orchestrator(root_path, filter_rules)
for (entry_type, entry_filepath) in o.recurse():
if entry_type == fss.constants.FT_DIR:
print("Directory: [%s]" % (entry_filepath,))
else: # entry_type == fss.constants.FT_FILE:
print("File: [%s]" % (entry_filepath,))
Output:
Directory: [/etc/init] File: [/etc/networks] File: [/etc/netconfig] File: [/etc/init/network-interface-container.conf] File: [/etc/init/networking.conf] File: [/etc/init/network-interface-security.conf] File: [/etc/init/network-interface.conf]
Notice that even though we only include directories named “init” we’ll still see matching files from the root-path.
As Script
You can also use FSS from the command-line. You’ll get a printout of the results that you can consume and parse.
Example:
$ pathscan -i "i*.h" -id php /usr/include F /usr/include/iconv.h F /usr/include/ifaddrs.h F /usr/include/inttypes.h F /usr/include/iso646.h D /usr/include/php
Requirements
