Hello,
I am trying to get the code to list all the directories in a folder, change directory into that folder and get the name of the current folder. The code I have so far is below and isn't working at the minute. I seem to be getting the parent folder name.
import os
for directories in os.listdir(os.getcwd()):
dir = os.path.join('/home/user/workspace', directories)
os.chdir(dir)
current = os.path.dirname(dir)
new = str(current).split("-")[0]
print new
I also have other files in the folder but I do not want to list them. I have tried the below code but I haven't got it working yet either.
for directories in os.path.isdir(os.listdir(os.getcwd())):
Can anyone see where I am going wrong?
Thanks
