Python Pathlib Module

Object-oriented filesystem paths — Path operations, glob, file I/O. This category documents 25 Python pathlib module entries, and each page gives you the full syntax, the parameter list, the return value, and a runnable example. The entries include: pathlib.Path(), Path.exists(), Path.is_file(), Path.is_dir(), Path.mkdir(), Path.read_text(), Path.write_text(), Path.read_bytes(), Path.write_bytes(), Path.glob(), Path.rglob(), Path.rename(), Path.unlink(), Path.rmdir(), Path.stat(), Path.home(), Path.cwd(), Path.absolute(), Path.resolve(), Path.iterdir(), Path.suffix, Path.stem, Path.name, Path.parent, Path.parts. pathlib.Path() creates a Path object for filesystem path operations. Path.exists() returns True if the path points to an existing file or directory. Path.is_file() returns True if the path points to a regular file. Path.is_dir() returns True if the path points to a directory. Path.mkdir() creates the directory; with parents=True creates intermediate dirs like mkdir -p.
