I writing a script that creates a GUI in which a user
types in a base path and a glob pattern. The script
tranverses the directories of the base path and
returns the files that match glob. Here is what I
have so far:
import glob, os, os.path, sys
try:
import pygtk
pygtk.require("2.0")
except:
pass
try:
import gtk
import gtk.glade
except:
sys.exit(1)
class findFileGUI:
"""A GUI used to find files with glob"""
def on_mainWindow_delete(self, widget, event):
gtk.main_quit()
def get_path(self, widget, entry, path):
base_path = entry.get_text()
return base_path
def create_dict(path, globbed_dict):
cwd = os.getcwd()
os.chdir(path)
matched_files = glob.glob(pattern)
if matched_files != []:
globbed_dict[path] = matched_files
#Make sure the script returns to the user's original
directory
os.chdir(cwd)
return globbed_dict
def glob_files(pattern, base_path = '.'):
abs_base = os.path.abspath(base_path)
globbed_dict = {}
#Check the root directory first
globbed_dict = create_dict(abs_base, globbed_dict)
#Check other directories
for root,dirs,files in os.walk(abs_base):
for name in dirs:
path = os.path.join(root, name)
globbed_dict = create_dict(path, globbed_dict)
os.chdir(abs_base)
return globbed_dict
def print_dict(globbed_dict):
paths = globbed_dict.keys()
paths.sort()
for p in paths:
print p,": "
file_list = globbed_dict[p]
for f in file_list:
print "\t",f
def __init__(self):
self.gladefile = "find_files.glade"
self.wTree = gtk.glade.XML(self.gladefile)
path_entry = self.wTree.get_widget("path_entry")
dic = { "on_mainWindow_delete_event" :
self.on_mainWindow_delete,
"on_path_entry_activate" : (self.get_path,
path_entry) }
self.wTree.signal_autoconnect(dic)
if __name__ == "__main__":
fFG = findFileGUI()
main = gtk.main()
My main problem seems to be between
dic = { "on_mainWindow_delete_event" :
self.on_mainWindow_delete,
"on_path_entry_activate" : (self.get_path,
path_entry) }
self.wTree.signal_autoconnect(dic)
and
def get_path(self, widget, entry, path):
base_path = entry.get_text()
return base_path
Right now, I just want the get_path function to print
to the screen, so I can see if it is working
correctly. However, if I run the script and type a
path, I just get this:
TypeError: get_path() takes exactly 4 arguments (3
given)
I've looked over some older scripts and examined some
tutorials, but I still can't find what the problem is.
