下面是这个线程启发的一个版本，它更接近地模仿distutils.file_util.copy_file。

updateonly是bool值，如果为True，将只复制修改日期比dst中现有文件更新的文件，除非在forceupdate中列出，否则无论如何都会复制。

ignore和forceupdate expect相对于src的文件名或文件夹/文件名列表，并接受类似于glob或fnmatch的unix风格通配符。

该函数返回复制的文件列表(或者如果dryrun为True，将被复制)。

import os
import shutil
import fnmatch
import stat

def copyToDir(src, dst, updateonly=True, symlinks=True, ignore=None, forceupdate=None, dryrun=False):

    def copySymLink(srclink, destlink):

                if symlinks and dryrun is False:
                    copySymLink(fullsrcdir, fulldstdir)
            else:
                if not os.path.exists(directory) and dryrun is False:
                    os.makedirs(os.path.join(dst, dir))
                    shutil.copystat(src, dst)

                    if os.path.isfile(d):
                        srcdate = os.stat(s).st_mtime
                        dstdate = os.stat(d).st_mtime
                        if srcdate > dstdate:
                            go = True
                    else:
                        go = True
                    if s in forceupdatefiles:
                        go = True
                    if go is True:
                        fc.append(d)
                        if not dryrun:
                            if os.path.islink(s) and symlinks is True:
                                copySymLink(s, d)
                            else:
                                shutil.copy2(s, d)
                else:
                    fc.append(d)
                    if not dryrun:
                        if os.path.islink(s) and symlinks is True:
                            copySymLink(s, d)
                        else:
                            shutil.copy2(s, d)
    return fc

下面是我对相同任务的版本:

import os, glob, shutil

def make_dir(path):
    if not os.path.isdir(path):
        os.mkdir(path)


def copy_dir(source_item, destination_item):
    if os.path.isdir(source_item):
        make_dir(destination_item)
        sub_items = glob.glob(source_item + '/*')
        for sub_item in sub_items:
            copy_dir(sub_item, destination_item + '/' + sub_item.split('/')[-1])
    else:
        shutil.copy(source_item, destination_item)

Docs明确指出目标目录不应该存在:

以dst命名的目标目录必须不存在;它将被创建，同时还将创建缺失的父目录。

我觉得你最好的选择是。遍历第二个和所有后续目录、copy2目录和文件，并对目录执行额外的copyystat。毕竟，这正是copytree在文档中所做的解释。或者你可以复制和复制每个目录/文件和操作系统。而不是os.walk。

受atzz和Mital Vora启发的合并:

#!/usr/bin/python
import os
import shutil
import stat
def copytree(src, dst, symlinks = False, ignore = None):
  if not os.path.exists(dst):
    os.makedirs(dst)
    shutil.copystat(src, dst)
  lst = os.listdir(src)
  if ignore:
    excl = ignore(src, lst)
    lst = [x for x in lst if x not in excl]
  for item in lst:
    s = os.path.join(src, item)
    d = os.path.join(dst, item)
    if symlinks and os.path.islink(s):
      if os.path.lexists(d):
        os.remove(d)
      os.symlink(os.readlink(s), d)
      try:
        st = os.lstat(s)
        mode = stat.S_IMODE(st.st_mode)
        os.lchmod(d, mode)
      except:
        pass # lchmod not available
    elif os.path.isdir(s):
      copytree(s, d, symlinks, ignore)
    else:
      shutil.copy2(s, d)

与shutil的行为相同。复制树，具有符号链接和忽略参数 如果不存在，创建目录目标结构 如果dst已经存在，将不会失败

这是受到atzz提供的原始最佳答案的启发，我只是添加了替换文件/文件夹逻辑。所以它实际上并没有合并，而是删除现有的文件/文件夹并复制新的文件/文件夹:

import shutil
import os
def copytree(src, dst, symlinks=False, ignore=None):
    for item in os.listdir(src):
        s = os.path.join(src, item)
        d = os.path.join(dst, item)
        if os.path.exists(d):
            try:
                shutil.rmtree(d)
            except Exception as e:
                print e
                os.unlink(d)
        if os.path.isdir(s):
            shutil.copytree(s, d, symlinks, ignore)
        else:
            shutil.copy2(s, d)
    #shutil.rmtree(src)

取消注释rmtree，使其成为一个move函数。

我无法编辑上面的“Boris Dalstein”答案，所以这里是这段代码的改进版本:

编辑所做的改进:

输入参数可以是str path或pathlib。路径对象。输入提示会有帮助。 如果源是一个目录，它也会创建该目录 类型是为局部变量定义的，因此IDE不会发出警告

# Recusively copies the content of the directory src to the directory dst.
# If dst doesn't exist, it is created, together with all missing parent directories.
# If a file from src already exists in dst, the file in dst is overwritten.
# Files already existing in dst which don't exist in src are preserved.
# Symlinks inside src are copied as symlinks, they are not resolved before copying.
#

def copy_dir(source: Union[str, pathlib.Path], destination: Union[str, pathlib.Path]):
    destination_path: pathlib.Path

    if isinstance(source, str):
        source_path = pathlib.Path(source)
    elif isinstance(source, pathlib.Path):
        source_path = source

    if isinstance(destination, str):
        destination_path = pathlib.Path(destination)
    elif isinstance(destination, pathlib.Path):
        destination_path = destination

    destination_path.mkdir(parents=True, exist_ok=True)
    if source_path.is_dir():
        destination_path = destination_path.joinpath(source_path.name)
        destination_path.mkdir(parents=True, exist_ok=True)

    for item in os.listdir(source_path):
        s: pathlib.Path = source_path / item
        d: pathlib.Path = destination_path / item
        if s.is_dir():
            copy_dir(s, d)
        else:
            shutil.copy2(str(s), str(d))
