Presentation Transcript

  1. Python: Get Filename from Path Master essential techniques for extracting filenames from python get filename from path. Learn multiple methods and best practices for handling file operations efficiently.

  2. Why Extract Filenames? Common Use Cases Benefits • File processing automation • Cleaner code organization • Log file analysis • Cross-platform compatibility • Batch file operations • Simplified file handling • Data pipeline management • Enhanced error handling

  3. Method 1: Using os.path.basename() 01 02 03 Import the Module Call basename() Get the Result Import the os module to access path manipulation functions Pass your file path to os.path.basename() function Receive the filename with extension as a string import osfile_path = "/home/user/documents/report.pdf"filename = os.path.basename(file_path)print(filename) # Output: report.pdf This method works seamlessly across Windows, Linux, and macOS systems, automatically handling different path separators.

  4. Method 2: Using pathlib.Path Modern and Object Modern and Object- -Oriented Approach Oriented Approach from pathlib import Pathfile_path = Path("/home/user/documents/report.pdf")filename = file_path.nameprint(filename) # Output: report.pdf# Get filename without extensionstem = file_path.stemprint(stem) # Output: report Advantages Flexibility Python 3.4+ More intuitive syntax with object-oriented approach and built-in methods Easy access to parent directories, suffixes, and stem (filename without extension) Standard library component for modern Python versions with no external dependencies

  5. Advanced Techniques 1 2 3 Splitting Name and Extension Handling Multiple Extensions Working with URLs import osfilename = "document.backup.tar.gz"name, ext = os.path.splitext(filename)# name: document.backup.tar# ext: .gz from pathlib import Pathfile = Path("data.tar.gz")all_suffixes = file.suffixes# ['.tar', '.gz'] from urllib.parse import urlparsefrom pathlib import Pathurl = "https://example.com/files/doc.pdf"pat h = urlparse(url).pathfilename = Path(path).name# filename: doc.pdf These techniques handle edge cases like multiple file extensions and extracting filenames from URLs or complex path structures.
