Treeverse is a Python tool for traversing, processing, and accumulating data from file trees using custom code.

pip install treeverse

Treeverse operates in three main steps:

1. Build: Traverse the directory and build the file tree
2. Process: Apply custom processing to each node
3. Accumulate: Aggregate data from child nodes to parent nodes

treeverse build -p /path/to/your/project -e py -e yaml \
    -c your_module:your_filter_function -o tree.yaml

Options:

• -p, --path: Specify the path to traverse (default is current directory)
• -e, --extensions: Specify file extensions to include (can be used multiple times)
• -c, --callback: Path to filter callback functions (can be used multiple times)
• -o, --output: Output file (default: tree.yaml)
• --write-to-stream: Write output to stdout instead of a file

treeverse process -i tree.yaml -c your_module:your_processing_function -o processed_tree.yaml

Options:

• -i, --input: Input file (default: tree.yaml)
• -c, --callback: Path to the processing function
• -o, --output: Output file (default: processed_tree.yaml)
• --read-from-stream: Read input from stdin instead of a file
• --write-to-stream: Write output to stdout instead of a file

treeverse accumulate -i processed_tree.yaml -c your_module:your_accumulation_function -o final_result.yaml

Options:

• -i, --input: Input file (default: processed_tree.yaml)
• -c, --callback: Path to the accumulation function
• -o, --output: Output file (default: accumulated_tree.yaml)
• --read-from-stream: Read input from stdin instead of a file
• --write-to-stream: Write output to stdout instead of a file

Process all Python and YAML files in a project, analyze them, and accumulate results:

treeverse build -p ~/path/to/your/project -e py -e yaml -o tree.yaml
treeverse process -i tree.yaml -c ~/path/to/your/tools.py:analyze_file -o processed_tree.yaml
treeverse accumulate -i processed_tree.yaml -c ~/path/to/your/tools.py:accumulate_results -o final_analysis.yaml

To use streaming for the entire pipeline:

treeverse build -p ~/path/to/your/project -e py -e yaml --write-to-stream | \
treeverse process -c ~/path/to/your/tools.py:analyze_file --read-from-stream --write-to-stream | \
treeverse accumulate -c ~/path/to/your/tools.py:accumulate_results --read-from-stream > final_analysis.yaml

In this example, tools.py would contain custom analyze_file and accumulate_results functions.

For examples of callable functions that can be used with Treeverse, check the simple_callbacks.py file in the project repository. This file contains reference implementations for filtering, processing, and accumulation functions.
