Usage

[dependencies]
ptree = "0.2"

Constructing a tree

There are two main ways of using ptree to print a tree-like data structure. The first is to implement TreeItem for your structure. The second is to create a new tree, either using TreeBuilder or by manually constructing StringItems.

The ptree crate includes implementations of TreeItem for some common types, including a custom StringItem and petgraph::Graph.

Printing the tree

A tree can be printed to standard output using print_tree, or to an arbitrary writer using write_tree. Both functions have variants which take a PrintConfig that controls the output. Text is formatted using ansi-term, which allows changing colors and styles of the printed text.

User configuration

By default, ptree loads configuration from a user configuration file. This allows end users to globally configure the output format for all applications using ptree. Applications can use this configuration directly, modify it, or ignore it altogether.
