# Main Method
if __name__ == '__main__':
display_tree(DirectoryPath)- Here by default, the
DirectoryPathis the current working directory (CWD) unless specified by the user.
Sample Directory Tree -
NOTE - Here, letseee.txt (File) and Directory 4/ (Directory) are HIDDEN in Nature.
- For Current Working Directory with Argument [Header Info =
False]
from directory_tree import display_tree
display_tree(header=True)
- For User Specified Directory with Arguments [String Representation =
True, Show Hidden Entities =True]
from directory_tree import display_tree
customPath = 'D:\Work\Python Packages Maintainence\Directory-Tree\Test\Main Directory'
stringRepresentation = display_tree(customPath, string_rep=True, show_hidden=True)
print(stringRepresentation)
- For Current Working Directory with Argument [Max Depth =
2]
from directory_tree import display_tree
display_tree(max_depth=2)
To install directory_tree, along with the tools you need to develop and run tests, and execute the following in your virtualenv:
$ pip install -e .[dev]Directory Treeuses recursion. It will raise aRecursionErroron really deep directory trees.- As the tree is lazily evaluated, it should behave well on really wide directory trees. Immediate children of a given directory are not lazily evaluated, though. It would be prompted to the last.
- If you're a Windows user, it is always advised to use
\\instead of\in the address as using\might catchup escape sequences and corrupt the address string.
