10. A URL, standardized in RFC 1738, always uses forward slashes, regardless of platform. A file path and a URI are different. \ is correct in a Windows file path and / is correct in a URI. Several browsers (namely, Firefox & Opera) fail catastrophically when encountering URIs with backslashes.
124. \**\ This pattern is often used in Copy Task for recursive folder tree traversal. Basically it means that all files with extension config would be processed from the all subdirectories of $(Services_Jobs_Drop_Path) path. MSDN, Using Wildcards to Specify Items: You can use the **, *, and ? wildcard characters to specify a group of files as ...
That second part of my comment (non-wildcarded globbing doesn't actually iterate the folder, and never has) does mean it's a perfectly efficient solution to the problem (slower than directly calling os.path.isdir or os.path.lexist since it's a bunch of Python level function calls and string operations before it decides the efficient path is viable, but no additional system call or I/O work ...
However, the best practice is to use the os.path module functions that always joins with the correct path separator (os.path.sep) for your OS: os.path.join(mydir, myfile) From python 3.4 you can also use the pathlib module. This is equivalent to the above: pathlib.Path(mydir, myfile) or: pathlib.Path(mydir) / myfile.
Also identical results on python 3.8.9. Starting with 3.8.10 and later, the spec_from_file_location starts saving the root path of the file (if a relative path given) in the loader object, but otherwise the data returned is identical. Also tested with python 3.10 -- exact same behavior as 3.8.10.
Just path is a file or directory named path in the current directory../path is a file or directory named path in the current directory, with the directory spelled out. The dot directory . represents the current directory, and path is the name of the file or directory within this directory.
"tildes in file paths have no special meaning and will be treated as any other non-special character" most Unix/Linux users would consider this behaviour as a bug. – mikemaccana Commented Apr 23 at 19:34
2. this "file:// is the prefix for the file protocol" is plainly wrong. This "file:" is protocol and schema designator. After it, sign // designates two things: 1) hierarchical, path alike, addressing is used and 2) the path after it is root relative. Additional / in file:/// is redundant. – c-smile.
Windows ignores double backslashes. So while the second syntax with \ is correct and you should use that one, the first with \\ works too. The only exception is double-backslash at the very beginning of a path that indicates a UNC path. See Universal Naming Convention. Though note that in many programming languages like C, C++, Java, C#, Python ...
path_list = script_path.split(os.sep) Remove the last item in the list (the actual script file): script_directory = path_list[0:len(path_list)-1] Add the relative file's path: rel_path = "main/2091/data.txt. Join the list items, and addition the relative path's file: path = "/".join(script_directory) + "/" + rel_path.
