- abspath(path)
- Return an absolute path.
- basename(s)
- commonprefix(m)
- Given a list of pathnames, returns the longest common leading component
- dirname(s)
- exists(path)
- Test whether a path exists. Returns False for broken symbolic links
- expanduser(path)
- Dummy to retain interface-compatibility with other operating systems.
- expandvars(path)
- Dummy to retain interface-compatibility with other operating systems.
- getatime(filename)
- Return the last access time of a file, reported by os.stat().
- getctime(filename)
- Return the metadata change time of a file, reported by os.stat().
- getmtime(filename)
- Return the last modification time of a file, reported by os.stat().
- getsize(filename)
- Return the size of a file, reported by os.stat().
- isabs(s)
- Return true if a path is absolute.
On the Mac, relative paths begin with a colon,
but as a special case, paths with no colons at all are also relative.
Anything else is absolute (the string up to the first colon is the
volume name).
- isdir(s)
- Return true if the pathname refers to an existing directory.
- isfile(path)
- Test whether a path is a regular file
- islink(s)
- Return true if the pathname refers to a symbolic link.
- join(s, *p)
- lexists(path)
- Test whether a path exists. Returns True for broken symbolic links
- normcase(path)
- normpath(s)
- Normalize a pathname. Will return the same result for
equivalent paths.
- realpath(path)
- # realpath is a no-op on systems without islink support
- split(s)
- Split a pathname into two parts: the directory leading up to the final
bit, and the basename (the filename, without colons, in that directory).
The result (s, t) is such that join(s, t) yields the original argument.
- splitdrive(p)
- Split a pathname into a drive specification and the rest of the
path. Useful on DOS/Windows/NT; on the Mac, the drive is always
empty (don't use the volume name -- it doesn't have the same
syntactic and semantic oddities as DOS drive letters, such as there
being a separate current directory per drive).
- splitext(p)
- Split the extension from a pathname.
Extension is everything from the last dot to the end, ignoring
leading dots. Returns "(root, ext)"; ext may be empty.
- walk(top, func, arg)
- Directory tree walk with callback function.
For each directory in the directory tree rooted at top (including top
itself, but excluding '.' and '..'), call func(arg, dirname, fnames).
dirname is the name of the directory, and fnames a list of the names of
the files and subdirectories in dirname (excluding '.' and '..'). func
may modify the fnames list in-place (e.g. via del or slice assignment),
and walk will only recurse into the subdirectories whose names remain in
fnames; this can be used to implement a filter, or to impose a specific
order of visiting. No semantics are defined for, or required of, arg,
beyond that arg is always passed to func. It can be used, e.g., to pass
a filename pattern, or a mutable object designed to accumulate
statistics. Passing None for arg is common.
