You can use glob:
import glob, os
os.chdir("/mydir")
for file in glob.glob("*.txt"):
print(file)
or simply os.listdir:
import os
for file in os.listdir("/mydir"):
if file.endswith(".txt"):
print(file)
or if you want to traverse directory, use os.walk:
import os
for root, dirs, files in os.walk("/mydir"):
for file in files:
if file.endswith(".txt"):
print(os.path.join(root, file))
