Active Members Fi8sVrs Posted January 23, 2020 Active Members Report Posted January 23, 2020 Motivation I built lsvine to be like tree but with the first-level directories distributed horizontally (and dangling downwards, hence like a vine). This format compacts the information vertically and displays it in a trello-like format, one "card" per directory. Screenshots: Installation With cargo: cargo install lsvine Downloadable binary for 64-bit linux: LSVINE_VERSION=0.3.1 wget https://github.com/autofitcloud/lsvine/releases/download/$LSVINE_VERSION/lsvine-v$LSVINE_VERSION-x86_64-unknown-linux-musl.tar.gz tar -xzf lsvine-v$LSVINE_VERSION-x86_64-unknown-linux-musl.tar.gz mv lsvine ~/.local/bin/ Usage Regular usage: # lsvine --version lsvine 0.3.1 # lsvine . +---------------+------------------------------------------------+-------------+---------+---------------------------+---------+ | . | dist | screenshots | src | target | testdir | +---------------+------------------------------------------------+-------------+---------+---------------------------+---------+ | CHANGELOG | lsvine-v0.2.1-x86_64-unknown-linux-musl.tar.gz | ls.png | main.rs | release | test1 | | Cargo.lock | | lsvine.png | | x86_64-unknown-linux-musl | test2 | | Cargo.toml | | tree.png | | | test3 | | DEVELOPER.md | | | | | | | LICENSE | | | | | | | README.md | | | | | | | build.sh | | | | | | | mk_testdir.sh | | | | | | +---------------+------------------------------------------------+-------------+---------+---------------------------+---------+ Show hidden filenames # lsvine -a +----------------+----------------+------------------------------------------------+-----------------------+-------------------------------+---------------------------+----------+-------------------------------+ | . | .git | dist | screenshots | src | target | testdir | tests | +----------------+----------------+------------------------------------------------+-----------------------+-------------------------------+---------------------------+----------+-------------------------------+ | .README.md.swp | COMMIT_EDITMSG | .gitkeep | sideBySide-latest.png | level1dir.rs | .gitkeep | .gitkeep | test_tablebuf.rs | | .gitignore | FETCH_HEAD | lsvine-v0.3.1-x86_64-unknown-linux-musl.tar.gz | | longest_common_prefix.rs | .rustc_info.json | test1 | vecpath2vecl1dir_iterators.rs | | CHANGELOG | HEAD | | | main.rs | package | test2 | vecpath2vecl1dir_onefunc.rs | | Cargo.lock | ORIG_HEAD | | | main_bkp_onefunc.rs | release | test3 | | | Cargo.toml | branches | | | tablebuf.rs | x86_64-unknown-linux-musl | | | | DEVELOPER.md | config | | | vecpath2vecl1dir_iterators.rs | | | | | LICENSE | description | | | vecpath2vecl1dir_onefunc.rs | | | | | README.md | hooks | | | | | | | | build.sh | index | | | | | | | | mk_testdir.sh | info | | | | | | | | | logs | | | | | | | | | objects | | | | | | | | | refs | | | | | | | +----------------+----------------+------------------------------------------------+-----------------------+-------------------------------+---------------------------+----------+-------------------------------+ Contract filename suffixes to reduce occupied screen-space further: # lsvine testdir/test1 +----+----+----+-----+ | . | d1 | d2 | d3 | +----+----+----+-----+ | f1 | f4 | f7 | d4 | | f2 | f5 | f8 | f10 | | f3 | f6 | f9 | f11 | | | | | f12 | | | | | f13 | | | | | f14 | +----+----+----+-----+ # lsvine testdir/test1 --contract-suffix +--------+--------+--------+---------+ | . | d1 | d2 | d3 | +--------+--------+--------+---------+ | f* (3) | f* (3) | f* (3) | d4 | | | | | f1* (5) | +--------+--------+--------+---------+ # lsvine testdir/test1 --contract-suffix --minimum-prefix-length=2 +----+----+----+---------+ | . | d1 | d2 | d3 | +----+----+----+---------+ | f1 | f4 | f7 | d4 | | f2 | f5 | f8 | f1* (5) | | f3 | f6 | f9 | | +----+----+----+---------+ For example, lsvine -c -m 3 /etc output here The future At some point, might want to get merged into other popular rust-based modern ls alternatives. It could be implemented as a separate option, eg exa --vine or lsd --vine. Example repos exa (pro) It already has a long grid view (con) Author seems too busy to dequeue issues and PRs (con) README doesn't list download binary from releases and run website https://the.exa.website/ lists download binary lsd (pro) Distributed via snap in addition to other channels that exa uses (con) Requires some fonts as pre-requisite Others at github topic = ls License Apache License 2.0.
