Simplest way to get the equivalent of "find ." in python?

Question

What is the simplest way to get the full recursive list of files inside a folder with python? I know about os.walk(), but it seems overkill for just getting the unfiltered list of all files. Is it really the only option?

Answer 1

pathlib.Path.rglob is pretty simple. It lists the entire directory tree

(The argument is a filepath search pattern. "*" means list everything)

import pathlib


for path in pathlib.Path("directory_to_list/").rglob("*"):
    print(path)
