glob.glob output

[Hitesh]

import string
import os

f = open ("c:\\servername.txt", 'r')
linelist = f.read()

lineLog = string.split(linelist, '\n')
lineLog = lineLog [:-1]
#print lineLog
for l in lineLog:
path1 = "\\\\" + l + "\\server*\\*\\xtRec*"
glob.glob(path1)

When I run above from command line python, It prints the output of
glob.glob but when I run it as a script, it does not print
anything.... I know that there are files like xtRec* inside those
folders.. and glob.glob does spits the path if run from python command
line.

I tried something like this but did not work:
for l in lineLog:
path1 = "\\\\" + l + "\\server*\\*\\xtRec*"
xtRec = glob.glob(path1)
print xtRec

No results...

xtRec = []
for l in lineLog:
path1 = "\\\\" + l + "\\server*\\*\\xtRec*"
xtrec = glob.glob(path1)
print xtRec

No luck here either.

Seems like I am doing here something reallt silly mistake..

Thank you,
hj

I am using pythonWin and command line means Interactive Shell.

I am using pythonWin and command line means Interactive Shell.- Hide quoted text -

all right seems like I got it.. it's the looping part. I need to
append the list.

And ? What are you doing then with return value of glob.glob ?
BTW, seems like an arbitrarily overcomplicated way to do:

from glob import glob
source = open(r"c:\\servername.txt", 'r')
try:
for line in source:
if line.strip():
found = glob(r"\\%s\server*\*\xtRec*" % line)
print "\n".join(found)
finally:
source.close()

When I run above from command line python, It prints the output of
glob.glob
but when I run it as a script, it does not print
anything....

Not without an explicit print statement. This behaviour is useful in the
interactive python shell, but would be really annoying in normal use.

I tried something like this but did not work:
for l in lineLog:
path1 = "\\\\" + l + "\\server*\\*\\xtRec*"
xtRec = glob.glob(path1)
print xtRec

No results...

With the same source file, on the same filesystem ? Unless your xtRec*
files have been deleted between both tests you should have something here.

xtRec = []
for l in lineLog:
path1 = "\\\\" + l + "\\server*\\*\\xtRec*"
xtrec = glob.glob(path1)

You're rebinding xtRec each turn. This is probably not what you want.

Thank you for your reply.

>From the return value I am trying to figure out whether the file

I am newbie so exuse my ignorance... still learning.
Somehow when I tried your solution, it takes 10mins to scan 200 plus
servers but when I tried my code, it takes less then 2 mins.
This is a puzzle for me, I gotta figure it out.

Thank you for your reply.
From the return value I am trying to figure out whether the file
xtRec* exist or not.

Yes, I had understood this !-)

What I wanted to point out was the fact you were discarding this value.

I am newbie so exuse my ignorance... still learning.

Been here, done that... Don't worry. We're all still learning.

Somehow when I tried your solution, it takes 10mins to scan 200 plus
servers but when I tried my code,

Which one ? The original one, or the one where you first store glob
results in a list ?

it takes less then 2 mins.
This is a puzzle for me, I gotta figure it out.

i/o are usually expansive, so the difference may comes from the repeated
print. Also, I'm doing a bit of formatting, which is not your case.

FWIW, my own snippet was just an example of the idiomatic way to read a
text file line by line. Doing TheRightThing(tm) for your actual problem
is your responsability !-)
