os.walk analogue in PyQt

问题

Before I can continue to implement recursive dir/file search with some filtering for some tasks I want to know if Qt/PyQt has analogue of os.walk.

Main app is a GUI app in PyQt4 and all text fields in a QStrings and path objects (files, directories) uses QFile, QDir, QFileinfo for manipulations.

As analogue I mean fast and convenient recursive fs-tree traversal tool.

Should I use os.walk or something much faster and more informative?

PS. Maybe this can help me but I'm not sure if this more efficient than os.walk.

There is none, and I would recommend using os.walk in python if you can. It is just as good as it gets.

It is not only because Qt does not have such a convenience method, but even if you write your own mechanism based on QDir, you will have access to all the three variables without hand-crafting like with os.walk.

If you are desperate about using Qt, then you could have the following traverse function below I used myself a while ago.

main.cpp

#include <QDir>
#include <QFileInfoList>
#include <QDebug>

void traverse( const QString& dirname )
{
    QDir dir(dirname);
    dir.setFilter(QDir::Dirs | QDir::Files | QDir::NoSymLinks | QDir::NoDot | QDir::NoDotDot);

    foreach (QFileInfo fileInfo, dir.entryInfoList()) {
      if (fileInfo.isDir() && fileInfo.isReadable())
          traverse(fileInfo.absoluteFilePath());
      else
          qDebug() << fileInfo.absoluteFilePath();
    }
}

int main()
{
    traverse("/usr/lib");
    return 0;
}

or simply the following forfor large directories and in general since it scales better and more convenient:

#include <QDirIterator>
#include <QDebug>

int main()
{
    QDirIterator it("/etc", QDirIterator::Subdirectories);
    while (it.hasNext())
        qDebug() << it.next();
    return 0;
}

main.pro

TEMPLATE = app
TARGET = qdir-traverse
QT = core
SOURCES += main.cpp

Build and Run

qmake && make && ./qdir-traverse

Then, you will get all the traversed files printed. You can start customizing it then further to your needs.
