Welcome to getfilepath's documentation!

We can use the fileaccess module to find out where the files are located in memory and return a file path for a given filename. We will also return a count of the given filename in memory.

This function will count how many given external files are in your memory and return it. You must enter a drive name, which drive you want to search. The API is designed to be simple. GetFilePath works on Windows, macOS, and Linux, and runs on Python 2 and 3.

To install with pip, run pip install GetFilePath. See the :doc:install page for more details.

The source code is available on: https://github.com/SriBalaji2112/GetFilePath

• ExtensionsCounter counts the number of files in a specific extension.
• This service will return the full file path of a given file name.
• This function will count how many given external files are in your memory and return it.
