Question

How can I make a verify error for this command?

if blablablabla:
    os.makedirs('C:\\test\\')

If the folder already exists, he return me an error… how can I make it ignore this error? and move on ?

Answer 1

try:
    os.makedirs('C:\\test\\')
except OSError:
    pass

You also might want to check the specific “already exists” error (since OSError could mean other things, like permission denied…

import errno
try:
    os.makedirs('C:\\test\\')
except OSError as e:
    if e.errno != errno.EEXIST:
        raise  # raises the error again
