Hi All,
I have a list of scripts which are present in various folders and this may be present in one of their sub-folder too.
There are 1000s of folders and hence parsing through each folder/sub-folder is not an option.
So I was trying to dir /s /b using python.
Now since the file's path name is computed using other part of the code, I am feeding in a variable here and somehow it does not seem to work.. :(
Intent is to run following command from python
dir /s /b "c:/abc/def/ghjmain\features\XYZ\*<filename>"
My present code.
import subprocess
for row in range(1,max_row):
tempID_cell = "C" + str(row);
tempID = ws[tempID_cell].value;
print (tempID);
Command = "c:\\abc\\def\\ghj\\main\\features\\XYZ\\*" + str(tempID) + ".cli";
print (Command);
IsPresent = subprocess.check_output("dir /s /b Command", shell=True);
Any help would really be appreciated.
Regards,
Siddharth
