I've done this two different ways. The simple way is very similar
to what you are now doing. It sucks because I have to manually
maintain the list of subdirectories to traverse every time I
create a new subdir.
Here's the other way, using glob and isdir from os.path, adapted
from actual production code.
class Miner:
def __init__(self, archive):
# setup goes here; prepare to acquire the data
self.descend(os.path.join(archive, '*'))
def descend(self, path):
for fname in glob.glob(os.path.join(path, '*')):
if os.path.isdir(fname):
self.descend(fname)
else:
self.process(fname)
def process(self, path):
# Do what I want done with an actual file path.
# This is where I add to the data.
In your case you might not want to process unless the path also
looks like an xml file.
mine = Miner('myxmldir')
Hmmm... I might be doing too much in __init__. ;)
