monty.os.path module¶
Path based methods, e.g., which, zpath, etc.
- find_exts(top, exts, exclude_dirs=None, include_dirs=None, match_mode='basename')[source]¶
Find all files with the extension listed in exts that are located within the directory tree rooted at top (including top itself, but excluding ‘.’ and ‘..’)
- Parameters:
top (str) – Root directory
exts (str or list of strings) – List of extensions.
exclude_dirs (str) – Wildcards used to exclude particular directories. Can be concatenated via |
include_dirs (str) – Wildcards used to select particular directories. include_dirs and exclude_dirs are mutually exclusive
match_mode (str) – “basename” if match should be done on the basename. “abspath” for absolute path.
- Returns:
Absolute paths of the files.
- Return type:
(list of str)
Examples:
# Find all pdf and ps files starting from the current directory. find_exts(".", ("pdf", "ps")) # Find all pdf files, exclude hidden directories and dirs whose name # starts with `_` find_exts(".", "pdf", exclude_dirs="_*|.*") # Find all ps files, in the directories whose basename starts with # output. find_exts(".", "ps", include_dirs="output*"))
- zpath(filename)[source]¶
Returns an existing (zipped or unzipped) file path given the unzipped version. If no path exists, returns the filename unmodified.
- Parameters:
filename – filename without zip extension
- Returns:
filename with a zip extension (unless an unzipped version exists). If filename is not found, the same filename is returned unchanged.
