Is there any reason why there is no equivalent of os.readlink in pathlib.Path? Note that Path.resolve does *not* fit the bill, as it always produces an absolute path, whereas readlink just spits out the symlink target exactly the way it is stored, which may be relative to the symlink itself: >>> import pathlib, os >>> p = pathlib.Path("/lib64/libc.so.6") >>> p.resolve() PosixPath('/lib64/libc-2.24.so') >>> os.readlink(str(p)) 'libc-2.24.so'

Just ran into the same thing. I would be interested in adding support for a "readlink" call if a pull request on this would be welcome.

The resolve() method already solves symlinks, but I think this is a reasonable feature request. I've just reviewed PR 8285 .
