Python - Search for and create directory

[ironfistchamp]

Hey all


Can Python search along a path (given to it via a string) and see if a directory is there. If it can, can I then create a directory?

Any answers would be really helpful

Thanks

ironfistchamp,

Try os.walk() or os.path.walk(), one of those is bound to be what you are looking for.

Thank you I shall look them up.

In my Autokernel code, we check to see if /tmp/autokernel is there and if not, we create it. Here is the code for that:

# Create '/tmp/autokernel' if it does not exist.
if not os.access('/tmp/autokernel', os.F_OK):
os.mkdir('/tmp/autokernel')

Hopefully this helps some also.

Similiar to above:
import os
def Check_Create_Dir( full_path_name ) :
if not os.path.isdir(full_path_name)
os.mkdir( full_path_name )
