listFiles: List Only Files in a Directory

In FastUtils: Fast, Readable Utility Functions

List Only Files in a Directory

Description

This function lists only the files in a specified directory, excluding directories. It is useful when you need to process or analyze only the files within a directory without including subdirectories. The base::list.files() function lists both files and directories, so this function provides a more convenient way to obtain just the files.

Usage

listFiles(dirPath, ...)

Arguments

dirPath	Character. The path to the directory from which to list files.
...	Additional arguments passed to base::list.files() (e.g., pattern, recursive). Note that full.names will be ignored.

Value

A character vector of file paths.

Examples

listFiles(getwd())
listFiles(getwd(), pattern = "\\.R$", recursive = TRUE)
