path.py implements a path objects as first-class entities, allowing common operations on files to be invoked on those path objects directly. For example:
from path import path
d = path('/home/guido/bin')
for f in d.files('*.py'):
f.chmod(0755)
path.py is hosted at Github.
Path.py may be installed using setuptools or distribute or pip:
easy_install path.py
The latest release is always updated to the Python Package Index.
You may also always download the source distribution (zip/tarball), extract it, and run python setup.py to install it.
To install an in-development version, use the Github links to clone or download a snapshot of the latest code. Alternatively, if you have git installed, you may be able to use pip or easy_install to install directly from the repository:
easy_install git+https://github.com/jaraco/path.py.git
