Summary
pathvalidate is a Python library to sanitize/validate a string such as filenames/file-paths/etc.
Features
- Sanitize/Validate a string as a:
file name

Sanitize a filename
- Sample Code:
from pathvalidate import sanitize_filename fname = "fi:l*e/p\"a?t>h|.t<xt" print("{} -> {}".format(fname, sanitize_filename(fname))) fname = "\0_a*b:c<d>e%f/(g)h+i_0.txt" print("{} -> {}".format(fname, sanitize_filename(fname)))
- Output:
fi:l*e/p"a?t>h|.t<xt -> filepath.txt _a*b:c<d>e%f/(g)h+i_0.txt -> _abcde%f(g)h+i_0.txt
Sanitize a filepath
- Sample Code:
from pathvalidate import sanitize_filepath fpath = "fi:l*e/p\"a?t>h|.t<xt" print("{} -> {}".format(fpath, sanitize_filepath(fpath))) fpath = "\0_a*b:c<d>e%f/(g)h+i_0.txt" print("{} -> {}".format(fpath, sanitize_filepath(fpath)))
- Output:
fi:l*e/p"a?t>h|.t<xt -> file/path.txt _a*b:c<d>e%f/(g)h+i_0.txt -> _abcde%f/(g)h+i_0.txt
Validate a filename
- Sample Code:
from pathvalidate import validate_filename try: validate_filename("\0_a*b:c<d>e%f/(g)h+i_0.txt") except ValueError: print("invalid filename!")
