Module path_parse 

Format-aware path parsing — replaces std::path::Path for cross-platform correctness.

std::path::Path uses the host OS’s path rules, which gives wrong results when parsing POSIX paths on Windows or vice versa. These functions use the path’s PathFormat to determine separator handling.

Functions

extension

Get the extension (last “.ext” including the dot).

extension_no_dot

Get the extension without the dot (for compatibility with std::path).

file_name

Get the file name (last component after the last separator).

file_stem

Get the file stem (file_name without the last extension).

join_pathlib

Join path parts using Python pathlib constructor semantics.

parent

Get the parent (everything before the last separator). Returns the path itself if there’s no parent (like “/” returns “/”).

parts

Split a path into its components (like Python’s PurePath.parts).

pathlib_normalize

Canonicalize a filesystem path the same way Python’s pathlib does on construction.

sep

Get the canonical separator for the given format.

split

Split a path into (parent, file_name), matching pathlib behavior.

suffixes

Get all suffixes (like Python’s PurePath.suffixes). “file.tar.gz” → [“.tar”, “.gz”] Get all suffixes (extensions) of the file name.
