我很惊讶没有一个答案建议使用pathlib库。

当然，它的使用是视情况而定的，但当涉及到文件处理或统计pathlib是黄金。

下面是一个片段:

import pathlib


def get_parts(p: str or pathlib.Path) -> None:
    p_ = pathlib.Path(p).expanduser().resolve()
    print(p_)
    print(f"file name: {p_.name}")
    print(f"file extension: {p_.suffix}")
    print(f"file extensions: {p_.suffixes}\n")


if __name__ == '__main__':
    file_path = 'conf/conf.yml'
    arch_file_path = 'export/lib.tar.gz'

    get_parts(p=file_path)
    get_parts(p=arch_file_path)

输出:

/Users/hamster/temp/src/pro1/conf/conf.yml
file name: conf.yml
file extension: .yml
file extensions: ['.yml']

/Users/hamster/temp/src/pro1/conf/lib.tar.gz
file name: lib.tar.gz
file extension: .gz
file extensions: ['.tar', '.gz']

#!/usr/bin/python

import shutil, os

source = ['test_sound.flac','ts.mp3']

for files in source:
  fileName,fileExtension = os.path.splitext(files)

  if fileExtension==".flac" :
    print 'This file is flac file %s' %files
  elif  fileExtension==".mp3":
    print 'This file is mp3 file %s' %files
  else:
    print 'Format is not valid'

import os
source = ['test_sound.flac','ts.mp3']

for files in source:
   fileName,fileExtension = os.path.splitext(files)
   print fileExtension   # Print File Extensions
   print fileName   # It print file name

如果你的文件上传了

import os


file= request.FILES['your_file_name']          #Your input file_name for your_file_name
ext = os.path.splitext(file.name)[-1].lower()


if ext=='.mp3':
    #do something

elif ext=='.xls' or '.xlsx' or '.csv':
    #do something

else:
    #The uploaded file is not the required format

假设m是一个字符串，你可以使用endswith:

if m.endswith('.mp3'):
...
elif m.endswith('.flac'):
...

不区分大小写，并消除可能较大的else-if链:

m.lower().endswith(('.png', '.jpg', '.jpeg'))

从Python3.4开始使用。

from pathlib import Path
Path('my_file.mp3').suffix == '.mp3'

如果您正在处理包含句点的文件夹，则可以使用

Path('your_folder.mp3').is_file() and Path('your_folder.mp3').suffix == '.mp3'

确保后缀为.mp3的文件夹不会被解释为mp3文件。
