public static List<File> files(String dirname) {
    if (dirname == null) {
        return Collections.emptyList();
    }

    File dir = new File(dirname);

    }

    return Arrays.stream(Objects.requireNonNull(dir.listFiles()))
        .collect(Collectors.toList());

防止listFiles()函数的nullpointerexception，并递归地从子目录中获取所有文件。

 public void listFilesForFolder(final File folder,List<File> fileList) {
    File[] filesInFolder = folder.listFiles();
    if (filesInFolder != null) {
        for (final File fileEntry : filesInFolder) {
            if (fileEntry.isDirectory()) {
            listFilesForFolder(fileEntry,fileList);
        } else {
            fileList.add(fileEntry);
        }
     }
    }
 }

 List<File> fileList = new List<File>();
 final File folder = new File("/home/you/Desktop");
 listFilesForFolder(folder);

void getFiles(){
        String dirPath = "E:/folder_name";
        File dir = new File(dirPath);
        String[] files = dir.list();
        if (files.length == 0) {
            System.out.println("The directory is empty");
        } else {
            for (String aFile : files) {
                System.out.println(aFile);
            }
        }
    }

给定一个baseDir，列出它下面的所有文件和目录，迭代编写。

    public static List<File> listLocalFilesAndDirsAllLevels(File baseDir) {

    List<File>  collectedFilesAndDirs   = new ArrayList<>();
    Deque<File> remainingDirs           = new ArrayDeque<>();

    if(baseDir.exists()) {
        remainingDirs.add(baseDir);

        while(!remainingDirs.isEmpty()) {
            File dir = remainingDirs.removeLast();
            List<File> filesInDir = Arrays.asList(dir.listFiles());
            for(File fileOrDir : filesInDir)  {
                collectedFilesAndDirs.add(fileOrDir);
                if(fileOrDir.isDirectory()) {
                    remainingDirs.add(fileOrDir);
                }
            }
        }
    }

    return collectedFilesAndDirs;
}

private static final String ROOT_FILE_PATH="/";
File f=new File(ROOT_FILE_PATH);
File[] allSubFiles=f.listFiles();
for (File file : allSubFiles) {
    if(file.isDirectory())
    {
        System.out.println(file.getAbsolutePath()+" is directory");
        //Steps for directory
    }
    else
    {
        System.out.println(file.getAbsolutePath()+" is file");
        //steps for files
    }
}
