osx bash 上的树命令

Question

I'm following a screen cast on a ruby gem called pry . At 8:10, the .tree command is used, which I believe is a Unix command.

It does not appear to be working on my system:

[24] pry(main)> .tree
\Error: there was a problem executing system command: tree

and I have traced the issue to here , in which pry references a shell command:

Pry::CommandSet.new do

  command(/\.(.*)/, "All text following a '.' is forwarded to the shell.", :listing => ".<shell command>") do |cmd|
    if cmd =~ /^cd\s+(.+)/i
      dest = $1
      begin
        Dir.chdir File.expand_path(dest)
      rescue Errno::ENOENT
        output.puts "No such directory: #{dest}"
      end

    else
      if !system(cmd)
        output.puts "Error: there was a problem executing system command: #{cmd}"
      end
    end
  end

from the context of bash I tried using the command tree with no luck:

projects/sms(apps2)$ tree
-bash: tree: command not found
~/projects/sms(apps2)$ .tree
-bash: .tree: command not found

This looks incredibly useful, how can I get this command?

Answer 1

Using homebrew :

brew install tree

Using macports :

sudo port install tree

Using the source :

Follow these directions. (Caveat; you should use the flags/etc. that make sense.)

^{<rant>All systems should come with tree ; I use it a lot. And we can post directory structures as text, not pics.</rant>}

For a simple approach you can also add the following alias to your ~/.bashrc or ~/.zshrc file:

alias tree="find . -print | sed -e 's;[^/]*/;|____;g;s;____|; |;g'"

This results in the following:

$ tree
.
|____.git
| |____config
| |____objects
| | |____pack
| | |____info
| |____HEAD
| |____info
| | |____exclude
| |____description
| |____hooks
| | |____commit-msg.sample
| | |____pre-rebase.sample
| | |____pre-commit.sample
| | |____applypatch-msg.sample
| | |____pre-receive.sample
| | |____prepare-commit-msg.sample
| | |____post-update.sample
| | |____pre-applypatch.sample
| | |____pre-push.sample
| | |____update.sample
| |____refs
| | |____heads
| | |____tags

Answer 3

Not exactly the same, but gives you a list of all directories and files in those directories using:

find .

You can also specify list directories only

find -type d

or if you want to see files only

find -type f

you can also specify depth

find -type d -maxdepth 2

Answer 4

Add this to your shell startup file( ~/.bashrc or ~/.zshrc ):

tree() {
    find $1 -print | sed -e 's;[^/]*/;|____;g;s;____|; |;g'
}

---

After restarting your shell, you can use the tree command like so:

% tree Downloads
Downloads
|____ideaIU-2020.1.3-no-jbr.tar.gz
|____Firicico.ttf

Answer 5

如果您在 Mac 上使用 Homebrew，请在终端上使用brew install tree命令。
