I am trying to compare a list of items to the list of files generated
by os.listdir. I am having trouble getting this to work and think I
may be going down the wrong path. Please let me know if hter is a
better way to do this. THis is what I have for my class so far:
import os, sys
class MatchList:
def __init__(self, dir, file):
self.dir = os.listdir(dir)
self.flist = open(file, 'r').readlines()
self.matches = []
def matcher(self):
#~ matches = []
for fname in self.dir:
#~ print fname
if fname[-4] == '.':
for item in self.flist:
if item == fname[:-4]:
pass
else:
self.matches.append(fname)
#~ else:
#~ break
#~ if self.matches == '':
#~ print "Sorry, there was no match."
#~ else:
#~ for item in matches:
#~ print item
def matchedFiles(self):
for item in self.matches: print item
if __name__ == '__main__':
dir = sys.argv[1]
file = sys.argv[2]
list = open(file, 'r').readlines()
test = MatchList(dir, file)
test.matcher()
test.matchedFiles()
Thanks in advance for your help.
