For that, python has os.makedirs(dir)
*makedirs*( path[, mode])
Recursive directory creation function. Like mkdir(), but makes all
intermediate-level directories needed to contain the leaf directory.
Throws an error exception if the leaf directory already exists or
cannot be created. The default mode is |0777| (octal). On some
systems, mode is ignored. Where it is used, the current umask value
is first masked out. *Note:* makedirs() will become confused if the
path elements to create include os.pardir. New in version 1.5.2.
Changed in version 2.3: This function now handles UNC paths correctly.
You you may also use bb.mkdirhier(dir)
____
def mkdirhier(dir):
"""Create a directory like 'mkdir -p', but does not complain if
directory already exists like os.makedirs
"""
debug(3, "mkdirhier(%s)" % dir)
try:
os.makedirs(dir)
debug(2, "created " + dir)
except OSError, e:
if e.errno != 17: raise e
