How to get files in a directory, including all subdirectories

Question

I\'m trying to get a list of all log files (.log) in directory, including all subdirectories.

You can also use the glob module along with os.walk.

import os
from glob import glob

files = []
start_dir = os.getcwd()
pattern   = "*.log"

for dir,_,_ in os.walk(start_dir):
    files.extend(glob(os.path.join(dir,pattern)))
