How Can i get all audio files in any folder from root folder?

J.Hilk

I'm sure there is a way to do it in qml/js but I don't know how.

The Qt way to do it would be with QDir - with root set as start path - and QDirIterator.

here's an c++/Qwidget example that could get you startet:

Thank you @eyllanesc and @J-Hilk .
Now I need to try for this. because I using python backend and cpp is hard for me.
any way Thanks.

@EmadDeve20 If you are using python then you should point it out, but the logic is the same. I am going to translate one of the several solutions that I post

@eyllanesc Thank You So much :)

@EmadDeve20 PyQt5 or PySide2?

@eyllanesc how can I say thank you?
i go to testing this :D

@eyllanesc sorry, can I ask my code is true?
why this is not working?

and this is

@pyqtSlot(str, list)
    def load(self, directory="/home/$USER/test_music/", filters=["*.mp3", "*.ogg", "*.wav"]):
        threading.Thread(
            target=self._load, args=(directory, filters), daemon=True
        ).start()

not working!

EmadDeve20

I think I am a super noob!
I know no what's happening!
I know no why this does not work!

eyllanesc

@EmadDeve20 Please avoid placing I know repeatedly as it is annoying and I do not understand what you intend to achieve with that action. With those kinds of immature actions you only discourage me from helping you.

eyllanesc

@EmadDeve20 If you want to change the directory then do it in QML : playerHelper.load("/home/qt_user/test_music/", ["*.mp3", "*.ogg", "*.wav"]);, Do not use $USER since this type of variable is not recognized but you must use the user's name.

EmadDeve20

@eyllanesc I'm a little tired, I do not know what to do and I still have my work left. I apologize if I upset you. Not a good day for me.

eyllanesc

@EmadDeve20 If you are tired and apathetic then go to rest since with those actions you annoy us and you infect us with your apathy. Bye Bye.

EmadDeve20

@eyllanesc You'r right.
But I just censored my username!
In real code, I use my own username.
