repo-tree

Description

repo-tree is a Python package for displaying the tree structure of a repository. It provides a Pythonic alternative to the Linux tree command, with additional features such as excluding files or directories based on patterns, .gitignore, or custom exclusion criteria.

Features

• Display repository tree structure with customizable depth and formatting
• Exclude files and directories based on patterns or .gitignore
• Control visibility of hidden files
• Specify custom exclusion patterns
• Exclude files and directories whose names contain specified strings
• Get a list of file paths in the repository tree
• Generate a concatenated view of file contents in the repository tree

Installation

Install repo-tree directly from GitHub via pip:

pip install git+https://github.com/yotamnahum/repo-tree.git

Requires Python 3.6 or later.

Usage Examples

Basic Usage

To use repo-tree within a Python script:

from repo_tree import RepositoryTree

# Display the current directory's tree structure
tree = RepositoryTree.display_tree(print_tree=True)

Output:

repo-tree/
├── LICENSE
├── README.md
├── repo_tree/
│   ├── __init__.py
│   ├── cli.py
│   └── repository_tree.py
├── requirements.txt
└── setup.py

Using .gitignore for Exclusions

repo-tree automatically excludes files and directories listed in .gitignore.

Given a .gitignore file with:

*.txt
LICENSE

The tree output will be:

tree = RepositoryTree.display_tree(print_tree=True)

Output:

repo-tree/
├── README.md
├── repo_tree/
│   ├── __init__.py
│   ├── cli.py
│   └── repository_tree.py
└── setup.py

Note that LICENSE and any .txt files are excluded from the tree.

Custom Exclusion Patterns and Criteria

You can provide custom exclusion patterns and criteria using the exclusion_patterns and exclude_if_contains parameters:

tree = RepositoryTree.display_tree(
    max_depth=2, 
    show_hidden=False,
    exclusion_patterns=["*.pyc"],
    exclude_if_contains=["__", ".git"],
    print_tree=True
)

Output:

repo-tree/
├── LICENSE
├── README.md
├── repo_tree/
│   ├── cli.py
│   └── repository_tree.py
├── requirements.txt
└── setup.py

In this example, the tree excludes .pyc files, hidden files, and files/directories containing __ or .git in their names.

Getting File Paths

You can get a list of file paths in the repository tree using the get_tree_paths method:

file_paths = RepositoryTree.get_tree_paths(
    show_hidden=False, 
    exclusion_patterns=["*.pyc"],
    exclude_if_contains=[".git"]
)
print(file_paths)

Output:

['LICENSE', 'README.md', 'repo_tree/cli.py', 'repo_tree/repository_tree.py', 'requirements.txt', 'setup.py']

Generating Concatenated File Contents

You can generate a concatenated view of file contents in the repository tree using the get_concatenated_file_contents method:

concatenated_contents = FlatView.get_concatenated_file_contents(
    exclusion_patterns=["*TODO.md", "*.gitignore", "*setup.py"], 
    inclusion_patterns=["*.py", "*.md"]
)
print(concatenated_contents)

Output:

Below is a flattened view of the repository. Here is the repository tree structure:
    
repo-tree/
├── README.md
├── repo_tree/
│   ├── __init__.py
│   ├── cli.py
│   └── repository_tree.py

Below are the contents of all the files in the repository, separated by '###':
# README.md
[README.md contents]

###
# repo_tree/__init__.py
[__init__.py contents]

###
# repo_tree/cli.py 
[cli.py contents]

###
# repo_tree/repository_tree.py
[repository_tree.py contents]

This generates a flattened view of the repository with the tree structure followed by the concatenated contents of files matching the specified inclusion patterns.

CLI Usage

repo-tree also provides a command-line interface (CLI) for displaying the repository tree. To use the CLI:

python -m repo_tree [dir_path] [options]

Options:

• --max_depth: Maximum depth of the tree to display (default: inf)
• --show_hidden: Flag to show hidden files
• --exclusion_patterns: Patterns to exclude from the tree

Example:

python -m repo_tree . --max_depth 2 --show_hidden --exclusion_patterns "*.pyc" "*.txt"

Parameters

The display_tree method accepts the following parameters:

• dir_path (str): The root repository path for the tree. If not provided, the current working directory is used.
• max_depth (int): Maximum depth of the tree to display. Default is float("inf").
• show_hidden (bool): Flag to show or hide hidden files. Default is False.
• exclusion_patterns (List[str], optional): Patterns to exclude from the tree.
• exclude_if_contains (Union[str, List[str]], optional): Exclude files and directories whose names contain the specified string(s).
• print_tree (bool): Flag to print the tree to the console. Default is True.

The get_tree_paths and get_concatenated_file_contents methods accept similar parameters.
