Python library for printing trees on the console

Python library to generate nicely formatted trees, like the UNIX tree command.

Example

Produce output like this:

foo
├── bar
│   ├── a
│   └── b
├── baz
└── qux
    └── c

using code like this:

import operator

from tree_format import print_tree

tree = (
    'foo', [
        ('bar', [
            ('a', []),
            ('b', []),
        ]),
        ('baz', []),
        ('qux', [
            ('c', []),
        ]),
    ],
)

print format_tree(
    tree, format_node=itemgetter(0), get_children=itemgetter(1))
