How do I list all files of a directory?
How can I list all files of a directory in Python and add them to a list?
Answer
os.listdir() will get you everything that's in a directory - files and directories.
If you want just files, you could either filter this down using os.path:
from os import listdir
from os.path import isfile, join
onlyfiles = [f for f in listdir(mypath) if isfile(join(mypath, f))]
or you could use os.walk() which will yield two lists for each directory it visits - splitting into files and dirs for you. If you only want the top directory you can break the first time it yields
from os import walk
f = []
for (dirpath, dirnames, filenames) in walk(mypath):
f.extend(filenames)
break
