Sometimes, we want to get the full path of the current file’s directory with Python.
In this article, we’ll look at how to get the full path of the current file’s directory with Python.
How to get the full path of the current file’s directory with Python?
To get the full path of the current file’s directory with Python, we can use the pathlib module.
To get the directory of the script being run, we write:
import pathlib
p = pathlib.Path(__file__).parent.resolve()
print(p)
Then p is something like '/home/runner/ShockingRosyGui'.
To get the current working directory, we write:
import pathlib
p = pathlib.Path().resolve()
print(p)
We call resolve on the Path instance to return the current working directory.
Conclusion
To get the full path of the current file’s directory with Python, we can use the pathlib module.
