How to prevent pathlibs Path.glob from returning files when glob ends with a slash?

The new Path.glob

one pathlib

seems to be different from the old glob.glob

one when the glob pattern ends with a slash.

In [1]: from pathlib import Path

In [2]: from glob import glob

In [3]: glob('webroot/*/')
Out[3]: ['webroot/2017-06-07/']

In [4]: list(Path().glob('webroot/*/'))
Out[4]: 
[PosixPath('webroot/.keep'),
 PosixPath('webroot/2017-06-07'),
 PosixPath('webroot/matches.2017-06-07.json')]

Is this by design some kind of compatibility issue that I am facing? And is there a way to stop it from doing this?

At the moment Ill is working with him:

[path for path in Path().glob('webroot/*/') if path.is_dir()]

In this case, there is an open error:

No permission yet.



Your workaround looks great, although if you don't mind including the "webroot" directory itself, you can use **

glob:

>>> list(Path('webroot').glob('**'))
[PosixPath('webroot'), PosixPath('webroot/2017-06-07')]
