python - Non-recursive os.walk()

Question

I'm looking for a way to do a non-recursive os.walk() walk, just like os.listdir() works. But I need to return in the same way the os.walk() returns. Any idea?

Thank you in advance.

Answer 1

Add a break after the filenames for loop:

for root, dirs, filenames in os.walk(workdir):
    for fileName in filenames:
        print (fileName)
    break   #prevent descending into subfolders

This works because (by default) os.walk first lists the files in the requested folder and then goes into subfolders.
