I'm looking for a way to do a non-recursive os.walk() walk, just like os.listdir() works. But I need to return in the same way the os.walk() returns. Any idea?
Thank you in advance.

Use os. walk() to recursively traverse a directory For each subdirectory in the directory tree, os.
OS. walk() generate the file names in a directory tree by walking the tree either top-down or bottom-up. For each directory in the tree rooted at directory top (including top itself), it yields a 3-tuple (dirpath, dirnames, filenames).
listdir() method returns a list of every file and folder in a directory. os. walk() function returns a list of every file in an entire file tree.
os. walk() returns a list of three items. It contains the name of the root directory, a list of the names of the subdirectories, and a list of the filenames in the current directory.
Add a break after the filenames for loop:
for root, dirs, filenames in os.walk(workdir): for fileName in filenames: print (fileName) break #prevent descending into subfolders This works because (by default) os.walk first lists the files in the requested folder and then goes into subfolders.
