您可以在pathlib模块（python3.x中提供）中找到一些很棒的东西。

import pathlib
x = pathlib.PurePosixPath("C:\\Path\\To\\File\\myfile.txt").suffix
print(x)

# Output 
'.txt'

最简单的获取方法是使用mimtypes，下面是示例：

import mimetypes

mt = mimetypes.guess_type("file name")
file_extension =  mt[0]
print(file_extension)

只需加入所有pathlib后缀。

>>> x = 'file/path/archive.tar.gz'
>>> y = 'file/path/text.txt'
>>> ''.join(pathlib.Path(x).suffixes)
'.tar.gz'
>>> ''.join(pathlib.Path(y).suffixes)
'.txt'

虽然这是一个古老的话题，但我想知道为什么在本例中没有提到一个非常简单的python api rpartition：

要获取给定文件绝对路径的扩展名，只需键入：

filepath.rpartition('.')[-1]

例子：

path = '/home/jersey/remote/data/test.csv'
print path.rpartition('.')[-1]

将给您：“csv”

另一种右拆分解决方案：

# to get extension only

s = 'test.ext'

if '.' in s: ext = s.rsplit('.', 1)[1]

# or, to get file name and extension

def split_filepath(s):
    """
    get filename and extension from filepath 
    filepath -> (filename, extension)
    """
    if not '.' in s: return (s, '')
    r = s.rsplit('.', 1)
    return (r[0], r[1])

# try this, it works for anything, any length of extension
# e.g www.google.com/downloads/file1.gz.rs -> .gz.rs

import os.path

class LinkChecker:

    @staticmethod
    def get_link_extension(link: str)->str:
        if link is None or link == "":
            return ""
        else:
            paths = os.path.splitext(link)
            ext = paths[1]
            new_link = paths[0]
            if ext != "":
                return LinkChecker.get_link_extension(new_link) + ext
            else:
                return ""
