glob (PTH207)

Derived from the flake8-use-pathlib linter.

What it does

Checks for the use of glob and iglob.

pathlib offers a high-level API for path manipulation, as compared to the lower-level API offered by os and glob.

When possible, using Path object methods such as Path.glob() can improve readability over their low-level counterparts (e.g., glob.glob()).

Note that glob.glob and Path.glob are not exact equivalents:

	`glob`	`Path.glob`
Hidden files	Excludes hidden files by default. From Python 3.11 onwards, the `include_hidden` keyword can be used to include hidden directories.	Includes hidden files by default.
Iterator	`iglob` returns an iterator. Under the hood, `glob` simply converts the iterator to a list.	`Path.glob` returns an iterator.
Working directory	`glob` takes a `root_dir` keyword to set the current working directory.	`Path.rglob` can be used to return the relative path.
Globstar (`**`)	`glob` requires the `recursive` flag to be set to `True` for the `**` pattern to match any files and zero or more directories, subdirectories, and symbolic links.	The `**` pattern in `Path.glob` means "this directory and all subdirectories, recursively". In other words, it enables recursive globbing.

import glob
import os

glob.glob(os.path.join(path, "requirements*.txt"))

Use instead:

from pathlib import Path

Path(path).glob("requirements*.txt")
