mytree

mytree is a small Rust CLI that prints a directory tree to the terminal.
The output can be filtered (by extension or regex), include hidden items, show long-format metadata, be streamed through a pager, written to a file (optionally gzip-compressed), or emitted as machine-readable JSON.

Installation

# needs Rust ≥1.70
cargo install mytree  # grabs the latest release from crates.io

The binary will be installed to $HOME/.cargo/bin; make sure this directory is in your PATH. You can also find mytree on crates.io.
