arbori 0.2.0

Create a directory structure given a simple input format.

Arbori

A lightweight command line tool that generates folder structures from simple text files. Simply provide an input file with your desired folder hierarchy using indentation (2 spaces) to indicate nesting levels, specify an output directory, and arbori will create the complete folder structure for you.

The name is inspired by arboriculture - the cultivation, management, and study of individual trees.

Example

Input file (structure.txt):

parent
  child1
    grandchild1
    grandchild2
  child2
    grandchild3
    grandchild4
  child3
    grandchild5
    grandchild6

Run arbori:

arbori create structure.txt output-directory

Will generate the following folders.

.
└── parent
    ├── child1
    │   ├── grandchild1
    │   └── grandchild2
    ├── child2
    │   ├── grandchild3
    │   └── grandchild4
    └── child3
        ├── grandchild5
        └── grandchild6
