Python Pathlib cheat sheet demo

pathlib.py

from pathlib import Path

print(p.name)   #demo.jpg 
print(p.parent) # /home/user/projects
print(p.suffix) # .jpg
print(p.stem)  # demo
print(list(p.parents))  #[PosixPath('/home/user/projects'), PosixPath('/home/user'), PosixPath('/home'), PosixPath('/')]
print(p.is_file())   # True if file exists
print(p.is_dir())   # false in this case
print(p.with_suffix('.png')) # /home/user/projects/demo.png

for sp in p.iterdir():   #iterate over all subdirectories and files
  print(sp)              #test with is_file or is_dir to get the type
  
[x for x in p.iterdir() if x.is_dir()]  # list of subdirectories

for sp in Path.cwd().glob('*.py')   # find all *.py files in current working directory
  print(sp)
  
#glob('**/*.py') makes this recursive, same as rglob()
