Getting a list of filenames in a directory - DavidHT - Feb-02-2020 Hi all, Python is very new to me, and I'm still finding my feet, so I apologise in advance if this is a daft question. I think this is my first post! I use an app that downloads podcasts for me. I'm in the middle of writing a Python script to 'work on' the filenames, so that they are formatted the way I want them to be. What I haven't been able to work out is how I can get a list of all the files in a particular directory, so that I can manipulate the name to the format I want, and then rename the file accordingly. Any help you can give me would be very much appreciated! Many thanks. RE: Getting a list of filenames in a directory - metulburr - Feb-03-2020 import os for dirpath, dirnames, filenames in os.walk('.'): for f in filenames: print(f) '.' is currently directory. Or you can put a path in to a specific directory
