wsl-pathlib

Extend pathlib.Path by addding the properties wsl_path and win_path that holds respectively the WSL (Windows Subsystem for Linux) and Windows representation of the Path object.

Features

• Lazy loading of the wsl_path and win_path properties on first access.
• Base Path object remains fully functional.
• Obviously works on both WSL and Windows side.

Limitations

• Only works for the windows drives, (paths living in the wsl's '/mnt/' mount point) so '/home/' won't work for example.

Installation

pip install wsl-pathlib

Usage

from wsl_pathlib.path import WslPath

# Running on WSL
wsl_p = WslPath("C:\\foo")
print(wsl_p)
# => '/mnt/c/foo'
print(wsl_p.exists())
# => True
print(wsl_p.win_path)
# => 'C:\foo'

wsl_p2 = wsl_p / "file.txt"
print(wsl_p2.win_path)
# => 'C:\foo\file.txt'
