os.py revision 81af68ee6123f87c368c95d384a934b7e501ebf0
1r"""OS routines for Mac, NT, or Posix depending on what system we're on.
2
3This exports:
4  - all functions from posix, nt, os2, or ce, e.g. unlink, stat, etc.
5  - os.path is one of the modules posixpath, or ntpath
6  - os.name is 'posix', 'nt', 'os2', 'ce' or 'riscos'
7  - os.curdir is a string representing the current directory ('.' or ':')
8  - os.pardir is a string representing the parent directory ('..' or '::')
9  - os.sep is the (or a most common) pathname separator ('/' or ':' or '\\')
10  - os.extsep is the extension separator ('.' or '/')
11  - os.altsep is the alternate pathname separator (None or '/')
12  - os.pathsep is the component separator used in $PATH etc
13  - os.linesep is the line separator in text files ('\r' or '\n' or '\r\n')
14  - os.defpath is the default search path for executables
15  - os.devnull is the file path of the null device ('/dev/null', etc.)
16
17Programs that import and use 'os' stand a better chance of being
18portable between different platforms.  Of course, they must then
19only use functions that are defined by all platforms (e.g., unlink
20and opendir), and leave all pathname manipulation to os.path
21(e.g., split and join).

210    """Directory tree generator.
211
212    For each directory in the directory tree rooted at top (including top
213    itself, but excluding '.' and '..'), yields a 3-tuple
214
215        dirpath, dirnames, filenames
216
217    dirpath is a string, the path to the directory.  dirnames is a list of
218    the names of the subdirectories in dirpath (excluding '.' and '..').
219    filenames is a list of the names of the non-directory files in dirpath.
220    Note that the names in the lists are just names, with no path components.
221    To get a full path (which begins with top) to a file or directory in
222    dirpath, do os.path.join(dirpath, name).
223
224    If optional arg 'topdown' is true or not specified, the triple for a
225    directory is generated before the triples for any of its subdirectories
226    (directories are generated top down).  If topdown is false, the triple
227    for a directory is generated after the triples for all of its
228    subdirectories (directories are generated bottom up).
229
230    When topdown is true, the caller can modify the dirnames list in-place
231    (e.g., via del or slice assignment), and walk will only recurse into the
232    subdirectories whose names remain in dirnames; this can be used to prune
233    the search, or to impose a specific order of visiting.  Modifying
234    dirnames when topdown is false is ineffective, since the directories in
235    dirnames have already been generated by the time dirnames itself is
236    generated.
237
238    By default errors from the os.listdir() call are ignored.  If
239    optional arg 'onerror' is specified, it should be a function; it
240    will be called with one argument, an os.error instance.  It can
241    report the error to continue with the walk, or raise the exception
242    to abort the walk.  Note that the filename is available as the
243    filename attribute of the exception object.
244
245    By default, os.walk does not follow symbolic links to subdirectories on
246    systems that support them.  In order to get this functionality, set the
247    optional argument 'followlinks' to true.
248
249    Caution:  if you pass a relative pathname for top, don't change the
250    current working directory between resumptions of walk.  walk never
251    changes the current directory, and assumes that the client doesn't
252    either.
253
254    Example:
255
256    import os
257    from os.path import join, getsize
258    for root, dirs, files in os.walk('python/Lib/email'):
259        print root, "consumes",
260        print sum([getsize(join(root, name)) for name in files]),
261        print "bytes in", len(files), "non-directory files"
262        if 'CVS' in dirs:
