I am trying to make convert a directory "tree" in a list of list, but cant
find the algoritm =( ,for example a directory tree like :
+root
+doc
ele1
ele2
+doc3
ele3
+doc2
ele4
ele5
should convert into:
root[
doc,
[ele1,ele2,doc3,[ele3]],
doc2,
[ele4],
ele5
]
I dont have any idea how to do it =( ,so far i get something like
this : [doc1,ele1,ele2,doc3,ele3,doc2,ele4,ele5] instead of
[doc1,[ele1,ele2,doc3,[ele3]],doc2,[ele4],ele5]
I need this in order to print a directory tree with htmlgen library which
uses nested lists to represent trees.
#!/usr/bin/python
from os import listdir
from os.path import isdir,join,basename
dirpath = '/tmp/test/'
res = []
def rec(f):
print f
for ele in listdir(f):
ele = join(f,ele)
if isdir(ele):
# append the directory name
res.append(basename(ele))
rec(ele)
else :
res.append(basename(ele))
rec(dirpath)
print res
