pretty-file-tree

A tiny, simple utility for pretty-printing lists of file paths as a tree for command-line-interfaces.

Example

const prettyTree = require('pretty-file-tree');

console.log(prettyTree([
    'home/user/foo.js',
    'home/user/test/bar.js',
    'home/user/test/baz.js',
    'home/user/bat.js'
]));

Result

home/user
├── foo.js
├── test
|  ├── bar.js
|  └── baz.js
└── bat.js

Configuring the output tree style

It is possible to change the style of the tree.

Example

const prettyTree = require('pretty-file-tree');

const options = {
    throughTee: '├>',
    endTee: '└>' 
}

console.log(prettyTree([
    'home/user/foo.js',
    'home/user/test/bar.js',
    'home/user/test/baz.js',
    'home/user/bat.js'
], options));

Result

home/user
├> foo.js
├> test
|  ├> bar.js
|  └> baz.js
└> bat.js
