I want to open a csv-file with python from a path that is specified in sys.argv. The name of the file is 'file.out' and I want to open it from the scriptlocation as specified in sys.argv[2]. However, I do not know how to specify the scriptlocation in the pd.read_csv command. I tried it as follows, but that does not work. What is the problem?
My code is as follows
outputfolder = sys.argv[1]
scriptlocation = sys.argv[2]
df = pd.read_csv(open(scriptlocation('file.out', 'r')), header=None, delim_whitespace=True)
Try this:
import os
fn = os.path.join(os.path.dirname(sys.argv[2]), 'file.out')
df = pd.read_csv(fn, header=None, delim_whitespace=True)
If you use Python v3.4+ and Pandas v0.18.1+ you can use pathlib :
Demo:
In [93]: from pathlib import Path
In [94]: p = Path(sys.argv[0])
In [95]: p
Out[95]: WindowsPath('C:/Users/Max/Anaconda3_5.0/envs/py36/Scripts/ipython3')
In [96]: fn = p.joinpath('file.out')
In [97]: fn
Out[97]: WindowsPath('C:/Users/Max/Anaconda3_5.0/envs/py36/Scripts/ipython3/file.out')
This is not a pandas
issue. What you need is to make a filepath based on a root folder ( scriptlocation
if I understand correctly) and a filename. You will then pass that constructed filepath to pd.read_csv()
. So you are looking for os.path.join()
:
output_fn = os.path.join(scriptlocation , 'file.out')
df = pd.read_csv(output_fn, header=None, delim_whitespace=True)
