This Python script traverses a directory and converts all the text files found into a PDF.

python files2pdf.py <dir_path> <pdf_path>

Here,

• dir_path: Directory path to traverse. The script will look for text files in this directory and its subdirectories.
• pdf_path: The output PDF file name.

The script performs the following tasks:

• Traverse the directory and its subdirectories using os.walk
• For each file found, the text is extracted and written into a PDF. The file path is used as a title for each page in the PDF.
• The '.git' directories are excluded from traversal.

1. Skip .git directories during directory traversal.
2. Dynamic font setting for title and file content.

You'll need the following python libraries:

• os
• argparse
• fpdf

You can install the fpdf library using pip:

pip install fpdf

The script's main function main() takes two arguments from the command line: dir_path and pdf_path. It passes these arguments to the create_pdf() function which creates a FPDF object, traverses the directory by calling traverse_directory(), and saves the created PDF.

The traverse_directory() function recursively walks through the directory and its subdirectories. For each file it finds, it reads the file content with extract_text(), adds a new page to the PDF, sets the title as the file's path, and writes the file content to the PDF.

Clone this repository, install the required python libraries and you're good to go! 😃

git clone <repo_url>
cd <repo_folder>
pip install fpdf
python script.py <dir_path> <pdf_path>
