@carlosame: The trailing slash is appended to the folder href because on most servers (e.g. apache2) that will help avoid a redirect from abc to abc/.
It would depend on the server you use but I suppose that on Windows it makes little sense to append a \ (correct me if I'm wrong), so I've added a check to not append the character on windows. In the previous version you could have just deleted that line containing os.path.join(entry.name, '').
In case a literal backward slash is needed on windows then you could remove the os check at line 370 and then on line 389 you could use quote(entry_path, safe='\\') instead of quote(entry_path).

Yes, and that's why the solution that I proposed (I edited the message not long after posting it) sounds better to me: replace
entry_path = os.path.join(entry.name, '')with
entry_path = entry.name + '/'No need to check for OS, after all we are building a URI and not a OS-internal file path.
I added automatic dark mode CSS in my fork, feel free to copy the change.
@InsanePrawn: thanks! 👍 I've pulled in your revision!
I'm not sure why it checks that each file is writable:
if (not entry.is_symlink()) and not os.access(str(entry), os.W_OK):
print(f"*** WARNING *** entry {entry.absolute()} is not writable! SKIPPING!")I replaced that with
if (not entry.is_symlink()) and not os.access(str(entry), os.R_OK):
print(f"*** WARNING *** entry {entry.absolute()} is not readable! SKIPPING!")
@stephencmorton: access check is only needed in order to get the file size, so, indeed, no need for them to be writable, readable is enough. Thank you! Script updated.
@glowinthedark in your latest update you renamed the gist from generate_directory_index_caddystyle.py to write. Was that intentional?
@carlosame: not at all intentional; I guess I have mistaken the name field for the search field and then saved the gist LOL! 😆 🤣 Thank you for pointing it out!
@glowinthedark Thank you for Awesome script. Could you please guide me how to change script to sort in descending order. Currently its ordering in ascending order !
@PavanMudigondaTR: at line 344 change
sorted_entries = sorted(path_top_dir.glob(glob_patt), key=lambda p: (p.is_file(), p.name))to
sorted_entries = sorted(path_top_dir.glob(glob_patt), key=lambda p: (p.is_file(), p.name), reverse=True)...but then you'll get folders at the bottom, rather than at the top; if you need more fine-grained sorting then use a custom sort function.
to have reverse sort but with folders coming first try something like
sorted_entries = sorted(path_top_dir.glob(glob_patt), key=lambda p: (!p.is_file(), p.name), reverse=True)
@glowinthedark Thanks for your solution. have a good day !
Is there a way to exclude specific files? For example, favico.ico
@cxplay: some file are already excluded, like for example files that start with a . character, see line #354
I've updated the script to take a --exclude-regex argument (short form -x) which takes a regular expression pattern for the files to skip.
For example, generate_directory_index_caddystyle.py -x '(favicon|node_modules|target|build)' will skip any files/folders that contain the given substrings. You can also go wild with regexes and define whatever exclusion logic you need.

I suggest changing line 45 of the script: index_file = open(index_path, 'w') to index_file = open(index_path, 'w', encoding='utf-8'). This prevents the index.html output from being garbled when CJK characters and special characters are used in the HTML template.
@cxplay: with modern python3 versions this is not strictly necessary as python defaults to UTF-8 ootb, for example (on both mac and linux):
In [5]: open('/etc/hosts')
Out[5]: <_io.TextIOWrapper name='/etc/hosts' mode='r' encoding='UTF-8'>What do you get if you run this from a shell on your system?
python3 -c 'import locale; print(locale.getpreferredencoding()); import sys; print(sys.getdefaultencoding())'

python3 -c 'import locale; print(locale.getpreferredencoding()); import sys; print(sys.getdefaultencoding())'
Its return:
cp936
utf-8
@cxplay: that explains it; since you are on windows your preferred locale encoding is microsoft's version of simplified Chinese, so open() by default will use cp936 rather than utf-8. As of Windows 10 microsoft uses UTF-8 as default so you are probably on a previous version.
I am assuming nowadays probably nobody would normally want to use something else than utf-8 so I've updated the script to explicitly use utf-8.

I'm actually using the latest Windwos 10, but it's probably a language preference issue, resulting in the default encoding being cp936.
FWIW on my bog-standard Windows 11:
python3 -c 'import locale; print(locale.getpreferredencoding()); import sys; print(sys.getdefaultencoding())'
cp1252
utf-8
@cxplay, @carlosame: thanks, indeed, this proves that assuming utf-8 as default won't always work on all platforms ootb, so the change was needed, as long as you don't insist that python should treat by default all your files as extended Latin encoding or whatever the OS decides to use as default unless explicitly specified 😄
with the latest update it should now work as expected
Since the modification in March 18 (the url encoding), the script no longer works correctly on Windows, because it encodes the "reverse solidus" at the end of a directory name as "5C". Not sure what the best solution could be.
EDIT: previous to that revision, it produced directory entries like the following:
which is bad but at least worked.
At line 370 I'd replace:
with
It works for me. (And removing the trailing whitespace at line 402 would be nice too :-) ).
