file_list_dataset {tfdatasets}

A dataset of all files matching a pattern

Description

A dataset of all files matching a pattern

Usage

file_list_dataset(file_pattern, shuffle = NULL, seed = NULL)

Arguments

file_pattern

A string, representing the filename pattern that will be matched.

shuffle

(Optional) If TRUE, the file names will be shuffled randomly. Defaults to TRUE

seed

(Optional) An integer, representing the random seed that will be used to create the distribution.

Details

For example, if we had the following files on our filesystem:

• /path/to/dir/a.txt

• /path/to/dir/b.csv

• /path/to/dir/c.csv

If we pass "/path/to/dir/*.csv" as the file_pattern, the dataset would produce:

• /path/to/dir/b.csv

• /path/to/dir/c.csv

Value

A dataset of string corresponding to file names

Note

The shuffle and seed arguments only apply for TensorFlow >= v1.8
