Just Use Pathlib

Waylon Walker

Import #






        
from pathlib import Path

Current Directory






        
cwd = Path('.').absolute()

Users Home Directory






        
home = Path.home()

module directory






        
module_path = Path(__file__)

Others Let's create a path relative to our current module.






        
data_path = Path(__file__) / 'data'






        
data_path.mkdir(parents=True, exists_ok=True)






        
Path(data_path /'example.csv').rename('real.csv')






        
data_path.glob('*.csv')

recursively






        
data_path.rglob('*.csv')






        
Path(data_path / 'meta.txt').write_text(f'created on {datetime.datetime.today()})
