Source.paths

returns the resolved file paths a source reads

Python
paths() -> list[str]

Returns list[str] — the resolved file paths, or [] for non-file sources

Example#

Python
from lsdtools import Source

Source.file(folder="data", patterns="*.csv").paths()
# → ['data/a.csv', 'data/b.csv']

Notes#

Only file sources resolve to paths; a sql source (or any kind that does not read files) returns []. This is the resolved list — a folder + patterns source is expanded to the files the glob currently matches.
