List Files

This node creates a list with the locations and URLs of the files contained in one or more given folders (content of sub folders can be listed as well). It is possible to apply a filter on the files, so that only the files of interests are included in the resulting list. There are 3 filters available: file extension(s), wildcard pattern or regular expression.
Note that if remote locations are listed, e.g. if the workflow is running on a KNIME Server, then the location column will be empty for files living in the KNIME Server repository. Only URLs are returned in this case.

Options

Location(s):

Select the folders to be scanned. Also KNIME-URLs like "knime://knime.workflow/" are accepted.

Filter:

Specifies the filter to be applied:

• none: all files will be included
• regular expression: only the files matching the regular expression will be included.
• wildcard pattern: only the files matching the wildcard pattern will be included.
• extension(s): only the files with the right extension will be included.

Extensions / expression:

Define the file extension(s), a wildcard pattern or a regular expression for the filter. For multiple extensions ";" acts as the separator. This option is ignored if no filter is selected.

Include sub folders:

If enabled the content of the sub folders will be included as well. If disabled sub folders will be ignored.

case sensitive:

If checked the filter is case sensitive.
