My first python script
My first python script! Woohoo to me! I’m working with a file and using a for-loop. It is crazy.
The python script
I needed a list of all my movies in a txt file and I needed an excuse to do some python. Hold on to you hats, here it comes:
import os
import glob
path = 'N:\Film\Film'
with open("movies.txt", "a") as myfile:
for infile in glob.glob(os.path.join(path, '*.*')):
if ".srt" not in infile:
myfile.write(infile + "\n")
As you can see it is pretty straight forward.
- Open a file with the append parameter
- Iterate over the files and foldes in the path. You have the oppotunity to do a whitelistning
- I’ve chosen a blacklistning. I do not want my .srt files poluting the end result.
- If everything adds up, add it to the file as a new line That was pretty easy and short to. Soon I will unleash the power of python other projects. Happy python’ing
