In Python, I could use:
from os import listdir
os.listdir()
In Julia, how can I list everything inside a given directory?

The ls command is used to list files or directories in Linux and other Unix-based operating systems. Just like you navigate in your File explorer or Finder with a GUI, the ls command allows you to list all files or directories in the current directory by default, and further interact with them via the command line.
os. listdir() method gets the list of all files and directories in a specified directory. By default, it is the current directory.
In Julia, how can I list everything inside a given directory? This lists all files and in a current directory folder as Vector {String} This walks through whole directory tree and returns a Vector of 3-element tuples where first element is directory, second list of it subdirectories and the third the list of files in a directory.
Dir(): Using the Dir() function you can get the list of files and folders in a specific path. The Dir() function takes 2 input parameters, the directory path and the type of file we are looking for: strPath is the path of the directory which the files and folder are in.
There is no built-in directory search that I know of, but it is a one-liner: UPDATE: Since at least Julia v0.7, contains () has been deprecated for occursin (substring, string). So the above filter would now be: Show activity on this post. An alternative solution is to use the Glob.jl package.
The Dir () function takes 2 input parameters, the directory path and the type of file we are looking for: strPath is the path of the directory which the files and folder are in. The FileAttribute specifies what type of file or folder we are after.
readdir()
This lists all files and in a current directory folder as Vector{String}
Of course you can provide directory name:
readdir("dir/name")
On Windows a useful practice is raw String macro:
readdir(raw"c:\temp")
If you want to see what is in subdirectories use walkdir:
items = [item for item in walkdir("some/path")]
This walks through whole directory tree and returns a Vector of 3-element tuples where first element is directory, second list of it subdirectories and the third the list of files in a directory.
