How do I get the filename without the extension from a path in Python?

How do I get the filename without the extension from a path in Python? "/path/to/some/file.txt" → "file"
Python 3.4+ Use pathlib.Path.stem >>> from pathlib import Path >>> Path("/path/to/file.txt").stem 'file' >>> Path("/path/to/file.tar.gz").stem 'file.tar' Python < 3.4 Use os.path.splitext in combination with os.path.basename: >>> os.path.splitext(os.path.basename("/path/to/file.txt"))[0] 'file' >>> os.path.splitext(os.path.basename("/path/to/file.tar.gz"))[0] 'file.tar'
