How to check dimensions of all images in a directory using python?

One common way is to use PIL, the python imaging library to get the dimensions:

from PIL import Image
import os.path

filename = os.path.join('path', 'to', 'image', 'file')
img = Image.open(filename)
print img.size

Then you need to loop over the files in your directory, check the dimensions against your required dimensions, and move those files that do not match.

If you don't need the rest of PIL and just want image dimensions of PNG, JPEG and GIF then this small function (BSD license) does the job nicely:

def getImageInfo(data):
    data = str(data)
    size = len(data)
    height = -1
    width = -1
    content_type = ''

    # handle GIFs
    if (size >= 10) and data[:6] in ('GIF87a', 'GIF89a'):
        # Check to see if content_type is correct
        content_type = 'image/gif'
        w, h = struct.unpack("<HH", data[6:10])
        width = int(w)
        height = int(h)

    # See PNG 2. Edition spec (http://www.w3.org/TR/PNG/)
    # Bytes 0-7 are below, 4-byte chunk length, then 'IHDR'
    # and finally the 4-byte width, height
    elif ((size >= 24) and data.startswith('\211PNG\r\n\032\n')
          and (data[12:16] == 'IHDR')):
        content_type = 'image/png'
        w, h = struct.unpack(">LL", data[16:24])
        width = int(w)
        height = int(h)

    # Maybe this is for an older PNG version.
    elif (size >= 16) and data.startswith('\211PNG\r\n\032\n'):
        # Check to see if we have the right content type
        content_type = 'image/png'
        w, h = struct.unpack(">LL", data[8:16])
        width = int(w)
        height = int(h)

    # handle JPEGs
    elif (size >= 2) and data.startswith('\377\330'):
        content_type = 'image/jpeg'
        jpeg = StringIO.StringIO(data)
        jpeg.read(2)
        b = jpeg.read(1)
        try:
            while (b and ord(b) != 0xDA):
                while (ord(b) != 0xFF): b = jpeg.read(1)
                while (ord(b) == 0xFF): b = jpeg.read(1)
                if (ord(b) >= 0xC0 and ord(b) <= 0xC3):
                    jpeg.read(3)
                    h, w = struct.unpack(">HH", jpeg.read(4))
                    break
                else:
                    jpeg.read(int(struct.unpack(">H", jpeg.read(2))[0])-2)
                b = jpeg.read(1)
            width = int(w)
            height = int(h)
        except struct.error:
            pass
        except ValueError:
            pass

    return content_type, width, height
