display_tree(dir_path: str = '', string_rep: bool=False, header: bool=False, max_depth: float=float("inf"), show_hidden: bool=False, ignore_list: list=None)

Run this Script in Order to Print out the Tree Structure of a User-Defined Directory DirectoryPath!

# Importing Libraries
from directory_tree import display_tree

# Main Method
if __name__ == '__main__':
    display_tree(DirectoryPath)

• Here by default, the DirectoryPath is 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.

1. For Current Working Directory with Argument [Header Info = False]

from directory_tree import display_tree
display_tree(header=True)

2. 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)

3. 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 Tree uses recursion. It will raise a RecursionError on 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.
