Python glob multiple filetypes
Maybe there is a better way, but how about:
import globtypes = ('*.pdf', '*.cpp') # the tuple of file typesfiles_grabbed = []for files in types: files_grabbed.extend(glob.glob(files))# files_grabbed is the list of pdf and cpp filesPerhaps there is another way, so wait in case someone else comes up with a better answer.
from glob import globfiles = glob('*.gif')files.extend(glob('*.png'))files.extend(glob('*.jpg'))print(files)If you need to specify a path, loop over match patterns and keep the join inside the loop for simplicity:
from os.path import joinfrom glob import globfiles = []for ext in ('*.gif', '*.png', '*.jpg'): files.extend(glob(join("path/to/dir", ext)))print(files)
