(Python) utility to create dict representations of file system trees.

Project description

Quick Overview

  • Create a dictionary representation of a filesystem hierarchy.

  • Optionally report some stats on the hierarchy (esp size of each directory).

Overview

pftree recursively walks down an input directory tree and creates a dictionary representation of the path structure. Each tree “key” has a list of files in that corresponding directory in the filesystem.

Dependencies

The following dependencies are installed on your host system/python3 virtual env (they will also be automatically installed if pulled from pypi):

  • pfmisc (various misc modules and classes for the pf* family of objects)

Installation

The best method of installing this script and all of its dependencies is by fetching it from PyPI

pip3 install pftree

Command line arguments

-I|--inputDir <inputDir>
Input DICOM directory to examine. By default, the first file in this
directory is examined for its tag information. There is an implicit
assumption that each <inputDir> contains a single DICOM series.

-r|--relativeDir
A flag argument. If passed (i.e. True), then the dictionary key values
are taken to be relative to the <inputDir>, i.e. the key values
will not contain the <inputDir>; otherwise the key values will
contain the <inputDir>.

-i|--inputFile <inputFile>
An optional <inputFile> specified relative to the <inputDir>. If
specified, then do not perform a directory walk, but convert only
this file.

[-O|--outputDir <outputDir>]
The directory to contain all output files.

[--stats | --statsReverse]
If specified, return some stats to caller -- summary list ordered
by directory size (--statsReverse does a reverse sort).

[--json]
If specified, do a JSON dump of the stats.

[-x|--man]
Show full help.

[-y|--synopsis]
Show brief help.

-v|--verbosity <level>
Set the app verbosity level.

     -1: No internal output.
      0: All internal output.

Examples

Run on a target tree and output some detail and stats

pftree          -I /var/www/html                \
                -O /tmp                         \
                -r                              \
                --printElapsedTime              \
                --stats -v -1 --json
