Os.listdir()将比使用glob.glob更有效。要测试文件名是否为普通文件(而不是目录或其他实体)，请使用os.path.isfile():

import os, os.path

# simple version for working with CWD
print len([name for name in os.listdir('.') if os.path.isfile(name)])

# path joining version for other paths
DIR = '/tmp'
print len([name for name in os.listdir(DIR) if os.path.isfile(os.path.join(DIR, name))])

def directory(path,extension):
  list_dir = []
  list_dir = os.listdir(path)
  count = 0
  for file in list_dir:
    if file.endswith(extension): # eg: '.txt'
      count += 1
  return count

一个答案与pathlib和没有加载到内存的整个列表:

from pathlib import Path

path = Path('.')

print(sum(1 for _ in path.glob('*')))  # Files and folders, not recursive
print(sum(1 for _ in path.glob('**/*')))  # Files and folders, recursive

print(sum(1 for x in path.glob('*') if x.is_file()))  # Only files, not recursive
print(sum(1 for x in path.glob('**/*') if x.is_file()))  # Only files, recursive

转换为列表后，您可以Len

len（list（glob.glob（'*'）））

这就是fnmatch非常方便的地方:

import fnmatch

print len(fnmatch.filter(os.listdir(dirpath), '*.txt'))

import os
print len(os.listdir(os.getcwd()))
