No project description provided

repo-mapper-rs 🦀

Rust implementation of repo_mapper.

What it does:

A CLI tool to scan a code repository and generate a structured file tree map, inserted into your README.md written in Rust. The map is fenced inside a markdown code block under a # Repo map section, if one exists the existing one is replaced, else it is appended to the bottom of the README.md.

Supported functionality:

• .gitignore
• file extension filtering
• directory exclusion
• ignore hidden files

Installation

pip install repo-mapper-rs

Or

uv add repo-mapper-rs

Example usage:

python -m repo_mapper \
  --repo-root "/path/to/my_repo" \
  --readme-path "/path/to/my_repo/README.md" \
  --gitignore-path "/path/to/my_repo/.gitignore" \
  --allowed-exts "py,rs,toml" \
  --ignore-dirs ".venv,target" \
  --ignore-hidden

This command:

• Traverses /path/to/my_repo
• Respects files excluded in .gitignore or listed in --ignore-dirs
• Includes only files with extensions .py, .rs, .toml. It's recommended to use this parameter to avoid unexpected files being added to the map.
• Skips hidden files and directories (those starting with a dot)
• Inserts or updates the # Repo map section in the README

Args

Argument	Type	Required	Default	Description
--repo-root	str	✅		Path to the root of the repository to scan
--readme-path	str	❌	'./README.md'	Path to the README file that will be modified
--gitignore-path	str	❌	'./.gitignore'	Path to the .gitignore file
--allowed-exts	Comma-separated str	❌	'py,md,toml,lock,yaml,ipynb'	Extensions to include (e.g. 'py,rs,md'). Note this is overruled by the .gitignore.
--ignore-dirs	Comma-separated str	❌	'.git,.venv,build,dist'	Directories to exclude (e.g. '.venv,target'). If not supplied, all directories will be evaluated. Note this is overruled by the .gitignore.
--output-mode	str	❌	'readme'	Output mode to display the tree: choices=['readme', 'shell'].
--ignore-hidden	Flag (no value)	❌		If set, hidden files and directories will be ignored
--dirs-only	Flag (no value)	❌		If set, only directories and subdirectories will be mapped (useful with larger codebases).

New Features:

0.4.0

• repo-map-desc:
  • adding repo-map-desc: to a line will treat everything after repo-map-desc: up to the end of the line as a file description.
  • that description is added to the corresponding file in the repo map
  • it will ignore any characters before repo-map-desc: (e.g. comments or code)
  • only apply to the first matching line per file
