Python OS File/directory method

Python OS File/directory method

The OS module provides a very rich method for working with files and directories. Common methods are shown in the following table:

Serial Number	Method and Description
1	Os.access (path, mode) Verify permission Mode
2	Os.chdir (PATH) Change the current working directory
3	Os.chflags (path, flags) Sets the marker for the path to a numeric marker.
4	Os.chmod (path, mode) Change permissions
5	Os.chown (path, UID, GID) Change file Owner
6	Os.chroot (PATH) Change the root directory of the current process
7	Os.close (FD) Close File Descriptor FD
8	Os.closerange (Fd_low, Fd_high) Closes all file descriptors, from Fd_low (inclusive) to Fd_high (not included), and errors are ignored
9	Os.dup (FD) Copy file Descriptor FD
10	Os.dup2 (FD, FD2) Copy one file descriptor fd to another FD2
11	Os.fchdir (FD) Changing the current working directory with file descriptors
12	Os.fchmod (FD, mode) Change the access permissions for a file, specified by the parameter fd, and the parameter mode is the file access permission under UNIX.
13	Os.fchown (FD, UID, GID) Modify the ownership of a file, which modifies the user ID and user group ID of a file that is specified by the file descriptor FD.
14	Os.fdatasync (FD) Forces the file to be written to disk, specified by the file descriptor FD, but does not force the update of the file's state information.
15	Os.fdopen (fd[, mode[, BufSize]) Create a file object with file descriptor FD and return this file object
16	Os.fpathconf (FD, name) Returns the system configuration information for an open file. Name is the value of the system configuration retrieved, which may be a string that defines system values, which are specified in many criteria (posix.1, UNIX, UNIX 98, and others).
17	Os.fstat (FD) Returns the state of the file descriptor FD, like stat ().
18	OS.FSTATVFS (FD) Returns information about the file system that contains file descriptor FD files, such as STATVFS ()
19	Os.fsync (FD) Forces files with file descriptor FD to be written to the hard disk.
20	Os.ftruncate (fd, length) Clip file descriptor fd corresponding file, so it cannot exceed the file size maximum.
21st	OS.GETCWD () Return to current working directory
22	Os.getcwdu () Returns a Unicode object for the current working directory
23	Os.isatty (FD) Returns true if the file descriptor FD is open while connected to the TTY (-like) device, otherwise false.
24	Os.lchflags (path, flags) Set the path to a number tag, similar to Chflags (), but no soft link
25	Os.lchmod (path, mode) Modify Connection File permissions
26	Os.lchown (path, UID, GID) Changes the file owner, like Chown, but does not track the link.
27	Os.link (SRC, DST) Create a hard link named DST, point to parameter src
28	Os.listdir (PATH) Returns a list of the names of files or folders contained in the folder specified by path.
29	Os.lseek (FD, POS, how) Set file descriptor fd Current position is POS, how mode modified: Seek_set or 0 sets the computed POS starting from the file; Seek_cur or 1 is calculated from the current position; Os. Seek_end or 2 starts at the end of the file. Effective in Unix,windows
30	Os.lstat (PATH) Like stat (), but no soft links
31	Os.major (device) Extract the device major number from the original device number (using St_dev in stat or St_rdev field).
32	Os.makedev (major, minor) Make an original device number with the major and minor device numbers
33	Os.makedirs (path[, mode]) Recursive folder creation functions. Like MkDir (), but all Intermediate-level folders that are created need to contain subfolders.
34	Os.minor (device) Extract the device minor number from the original device number (using St_dev in stat or St_rdev field).
35	Os.mkdir (path[, mode]) Create a folder named path in the digital mode mode. The default mode is 0777 (octal).
36	Os.mkfifo (path[, mode]) Create a named pipe, mode is a number, default is 0666 (octal)
37	Os.mknod (filename[, mode=0600, device]) Create a system node named filename file (file, device special file, or named pipe).
38	Os.open (file, flags[, mode]) Open a file and set the required open options, the mode parameter is optional
39	Os.openpty () Open a new pseudo-terminal pair. Returns the file descriptor for the Pty and TTY.
40	os.pathconf (path, name) Returns system configuration information for the related file.
41	Os.pipe () Create a pipeline. Returns a pair of file descriptors (R, W), respectively, for read and write
42	Os.popen (command[, mode[, BufSize]) Open a pipe from a command
43	Os.read (FD, N) Reads up to n bytes from the file descriptor fd, returns a string containing the read bytes, and the file descriptor fd corresponding file has reached the end, returning an empty string.
44	Os.readlink (PATH) Returns the file that the soft link points to
45	Os.remove (PATH) Deletes a file with path. If path is a folder, it will throw oserror; View the following rmdir () to remove a directory.
46	Os.removedirs (PATH) recursively deletes the directory.
47	Os.rename (SRC, DST) Rename a file or directory, from SRC to DST
48	Os.renames (old, new) Rename the directory recursively, or rename the file accordingly.
49	Os.rmdir (PATH) Deletes the empty directory specified by path and throws a OSError exception if the directory is not empty.
50	Os.stat (PATH) Gets the information for the path specified by path, which is equivalent to the stat () system call in the C API.
51	Os.stat_float_times ([newvalue]) Determines whether Stat_result displays timestamps as float objects
52	OS.STATVFS (PATH) Gets file system statistics for the specified path
53	Os.symlink (SRC, DST) Create a soft link
54	OS.TCGETPGRP (FD) Returns the process group associated with Terminal FD (an open file descriptor returned by Os.open ())
55	OS.TCSETPGRP (FD, PG) Sets the process group associated with Terminal FD (an open file descriptor returned by Os.open ()) to pg.
56	Os.tempnam ([dir[, prefix]]) Returns a unique path name used to create a temporary file.
57	Os.tmpfile () Returns a file object with an open mode of (W+B). This file object has no folder entry, no file descriptor, and will be automatically deleted.
58	Os.tmpnam () Returns a unique path for creating a temporary file
59	Os.ttyname (FD) Returns a String that represents the terminal device associated with the file descriptor FD. If the FD is not associated with the end device, an exception is thrown.
60	Os.unlink (PATH) Delete file path
61	Os.utime (path, times) Returns the time that the specified path file was accessed and modified.
62	Os.walk (top[, topdown=true[, onerror=none[, Followlinks=false]]) Output the file name in the folder by walking in the tree, up or down.
63	Os.write (FD, str) Writes a string to the file descriptor FD. Returns the string length actually written
