File Statistics Scanner

A Python script to scan a directory for files with specified extensions, ignoring selected folders, and count:

• Number of matching files
• Total lines across all matching files
• Total characters across all matching files

How It Works

1. Prompts the user to enter file extensions (e.g., py, js, txt).
2. Prompts for directory names to ignore (e.g., node_modules, venv).
3. Recursively scans the current working directory using simple BFS traversal.
4. Displays statistics for each extension provided.

Installation

pip install adityas-fsscan

Example Run

$ fsscan
Current working directory: /Users/attaditya/projects/code-analyzer
Enter file extensions to scan: 
Please avoid leading dots (e.g., write 'py' instead of '.py').
> py
> js
> 

Enter directories to ignore (optional): 
Please avoid leading slashes (e.g., write 'node_modules' instead of '/node_modules').
> node_modules
> 

Data for py:
  Files: 12
  Lines: 1893
  Chars: 55120
Data for js:
  Files: 8
  Lines: 1104
  Chars: 30792
