python walk a directory code example

Example 1: traverse files in directory python

for dirpath, dirnames, filenames in os.walk(dir_path):
    print(dirpath)
    print(dirnames)
    print(filenames)
    
# python 2
import os.path

def print_it(x, dir_name, files):
    print(dir_name)
    print(files)

os.path.walk(your_dir, print_it, 0)

for root, dirs, files in os.walk('/tmp'):
    if os.path.basename(root) != 'modules':
