Question

The os.path.join(a, b) method will generate a string ending without ‘/’ no matter it is a file or directory. Now, is there any way (or any other os.path method) to get a ‘/’ automatically for the case of the directory?

Answer 1

There is no such function in os.path. It’s easy to code up yourself, though:

if os.path.isdir(path):
    path = os.path.join(path, "")

This will add a / if there isn’t already one at the end of path in case it points to a directory.
