How to glob two patterns with pathlib?
If you're ok with installing a package, check out wcmatch
. It can patch the Python PathLib so that you can run multiple matches in one go:
from wcmatch.pathlib import Path
paths = Path('path/to/dir').glob(['*.jl', '*.jsonlines'])
Inspired by @aditi's answer, I came up with this:
from pathlib import Path
from itertools import chain
exts = ["*.jl", "*.jsonlines"]
mainpath = "/path/to/dir"
P = []
for i in exts:
p = Path(mainpath).joinpath().glob(i)
P = chain(P, p)
print(list(P))
from pathlib import Path
exts = [".jl", ".jsonlines"]
mainpath = "/path/to/dir"
# Same directory
files = [p for p in Path(mainpath).iterdir() if p.suffix in exts]
# Recursive
files = [p for p in Path(mainpath).rglob('*') if p.suffix in exts]
# 'files' will be a generator of Path objects, to unpack into strings:
list(files)
