cloudpathlib.AzureBlobPath

Bases: CloudPath

Class for representing and operating on Azure Blob Storage URIs, in the style of the Python standard library's pathlib module. Instances represent a path in Blob Storage with filesystem path semantics, and convenient methods allow for basic operations like joining, reading, writing, iterating over contents, etc. This class almost entirely mimics the pathlib.Path interface, so most familiar properties and methods should be available and behave in the expected way.

The AzureBlobClient class handles authentication with Azure. If a client instance is not explicitly specified on AzureBlobPath instantiation, a default client is used. See AzureBlobClient's documentation for more details.

walk(top_down: bool = True, on_error: Optional[Callable] = None, follow_symlinks: bool = False, lazy: bool = False) -> Generator[Tuple[Self, List[str], List[str]], None, None]

Walk the directory tree rooted at this path, similar to :meth:pathlib.Path.walk and :func:os.walk.

By default (lazy=False) the entire subtree is listed up front with a single recursive listing, which is the fastest option for a full walk on cloud backends.

Pass lazy=True to defer listing until each directory is visited (one non-recursive listing per directory). This is slower for a full walk, but lets callers prune dirnames in place (when top_down=True) to avoid fetching the contents of skipped subtrees entirely -- which can be dramatically faster and cheaper for sparse traversals.

follow_symlinks is accepted for signature parity with pathlib but has no effect on cloud backends, which do not have symlinks.
