Cannot load files

[dusk gale]

Hello everyone, I have the following code:

for folder in os.listdir('./cogs'):
    for module in os.listdir(f'./cogs/{folder}'):
        for category in os.listdir(f'./cogs/{folder}/{module}'):
            for filename in os.listdir(f'./cogs/{folder}/{module}/{category}'):
                try:
                    if filename.endswith('.py'):
                        bot.load_extension(f'cogs.{folder}.{module}.{category}.{filename[:-3]}')
                except Exception as e:
                    print(f'Error: {e}')

I wrote this code on my own since I didn´t want to always have multiple functions to run different modules e.g.
events.client.ready, events.guild.memberJoin etc.
In my cogs folder I have 2 folders (and more to come), events & cmds, inside those there are more folders which then lead to a .py file.

The problem is that windows gives me an error that this directory name is not correct. Why is that so?

Have you tried printing all the paths its trying to access? Should give you a clue to whats happening.
also, is it the load_extention that fails? or whats the error specifically?

[dusk gale]

it does not reach the extension load, specific error is at

for filename in os.listdir(f'./cogs/{folder}/{module}/{category}'):

ohh

For some reason the printed output is
cogs.cmds.general.ping.py.__pycach

[steep thunder]

If you're planing to load all .py files you could just do
bot.load_extentions('./cogs')

os.listdir("cogs/") try this tho

[dusk gale]

this does not load the files

the path is correct it is really weird to me

it´s a NotADirectoryError

and displays the correct path xD

[steep thunder]

Well duh,, haha

listdir gives you files

os.walk is what you're after

[x[0] for x in os.walk(directory)] should give you all of the subdirectories, recursively.

if you want to use listdir, you need to pair it with os.path.isdir

[dusk gale]

I went back to coding as soon as you said I need os.walk xD

def load_cogs():
    for folder, subfolder, file in os.walk("cogs/"):
        for filename in file:
            if filename.endswith(".py"):
                filenamepath = os.path.join(folder, filename)
                filenamepath = filenamepath.replace("\\", ".")
                filenamepath = filenamepath.replace("/", ".")
                filenamepath = filenamepath.replace(".py", "")
                bot.load_extension(filenamepath)

load_cogs()

Does this make sense to you?

It does load everything I want now

[steep thunder]

makes sense to me

You can string them all after each other tho if you preffer replace().replace().replace() etc

[dusk gale]

yeah that would be good clean up

thanks once again strix

[steep thunder]

More of a style preference, im sure some would loose their mind over it

[dusk gale]

definetly xD
