python - List only directories, insert absolute path

I'm currently using os.walk to list only the directories in a given folder. However, I need the absolute path for each directory listed.

My line of code:

folder_path = '/Users/username/Desktop/T'

array2 = next(os.walk(folder_path))[1]

print(array2)

It outputs:

['T1', 'T2', 'T3']

How can I get the absolute path of each directory?

The result I'm looking for would be:

['/Users/username/Desktop/T/T1', '/Users/username/Desktop/T/T2', '/Users/username/Desktop/T/T3']

for current,dirs,files in os.walk(...):
    for folder in dirs:
        print os.path.abspath(os.path.join(current,folder))

if you just want the directories in T

from os import listdir
from os.path import isdir,join as pjoin
root = "/Users/username/Desktop/T"
print [pjoin(root,p) for p in listdir(root) if isdir(pjoin(root,p))]

I combined os.path.abspath and os.path.join:

folder_path = '/Users/username/Desktop/T'

array2 = next(os.walk(folder_path))[1]
array3 = []

print(array2)
# ['T1', 'T2', 'T3']

for local_folder in array2:
    array3.append( os.path.abspath(os.path.join(folder_path, local_folder)))

print(array3)
# ['/Users/username/Desktop/T/T1', '/Users/username/Desktop/T/T2', '/Users/username/Desktop/T/T3']

Try this:


    for o in array2:
        print os.path.abspath(o)
