New submission from Leonid Vasilev <vsleo...@gmail.com>: Hello,
This patch adds new function to shutil. I think it's quite generic, and it fits shutil purpose. Sample usage: shutil.cleartree(path='/home/chin/Dev/python-hg-dev', ignore=shutil.ignore_pattterns('*.py')) removes all files from path, except *.py files. and shutil.cleartree(path='/home/chin/Dev/python-hg-dev', ignore=shutil.ignore_pattterns('*.pyc'), invert=True) is equivalent to `find /home/chin/Dev/python-hg-dev -name "*.pyc" -delete` ---------- components: Library (Lib) files: shutil.cleartree.patch keywords: patch messages: 141450 nosy: chin priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: [new function] shutil.cleartree type: feature request versions: Python 2.7, Python 3.3, Python 3.4 Added file: http://bugs.python.org/file22804/shutil.cleartree.patch _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue12661> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
