Shutil.copy () Usage

Shutil.copyfile (SRC, DST): Copies the contents of a file (not including metadata) from SRC to DST.

DST must be the full target file name;

If SRC and DST are the same file, an error shutil will be thrown. Error.

DST must be writable, otherwise an exception IOError will be thrown. If DST already exists, it will be replaced.

Special files, such as characters or block devices and pipelines, cannot use this feature because CopyFile opens and reads the file.

SRC and DST are path names in the form of strings.

Shutil.ignore_patterns (*patterns) is an auxiliary function for Copytree, providing GLOB functionality, example:

From shutil import copytree, ignore_patterns

Copytree(source, Destination, ignore=ignore_patterns(' *.pyc ', ' tmp* ') )
