Ya. Do it using python. Why do you want to use bash when you already have
python?

See, do something like this:-

import os
alldirs = os.listdir("/path/to/dir")

DIRS = [] #Only the dirs you are interested in

for i in alldirs:
      if i.find("deploy") is -1: L.append(i)
      if i.find("TEMPLATE") is -1: L.append(i)

#Now L contains all the required dirs.

Hope it helps.
