(Windows only) Same as list.files but much faster.

Present since v1.4.0.

dir2(path = ".", file_ext = NULL, full.names = TRUE,
  recursive = TRUE, pattern = NULL, fixed = FALSE, perl = TRUE &&
  missing(fixed) && !fixed, ignore.case = FALSE, invert = FALSE,
  .dont_use = FALSE)

Arguments

path

A string representing the trunk path to search within.

A string like `*.txt` or `.csv` to limit the result to files with that extension.

full.names

TRUE by default.

recursive

TRUE by default.

pattern, perl, ignore.case, fixed, invert

As in grep but with different defaults. Used to filter files with extension file_ext.
