Project Structure Generator (项目结构生成器)

中文文档

A VS Code extension that scans project files and generates a structured directory tree in a file. Supports automatic updates when files change!

✨ Features

  • Two Generation Modes: Project-wide structure or directory-specific structure
  • Smart File Comments: Preserves and displays comments marked with # after file names
  • Auto-Update: Optional automatic regeneration when files/folders are created, deleted, or renamed
  • Flexible Configuration: Customizable ignore patterns, scan depth, and output file names
  • Multi-language Support: English and Chinese interfaces
  • Intelligent Filtering: Default ignores common directories like .git, .idea, .vscode, dist, node_modules

🚀 Usage

Two Generation Commands

1. Generate Project Structure

  • What it does: Scans the entire project from root directory
  • Where it saves: Always saves to project root directory
  • When to use: For complete project documentation
  • Access:
    • Command Palette: "Generate Project Structure"
    • Right-click on files: "Generate Project Structure"
    • Right-click on folders: "Generate Project Structure"

2. Generate Directory Structure

  • What it does: Scans only the selected directory
  • Where it saves: Saves to the selected directory
  • When to use: For documenting specific modules or subdirectories
  • Access:
    • Right-click on folders: "Generate Directory Structure"

How to Access Commands

Command Palette

  1. Press Ctrl+Shift+P (Windows/Linux) or Cmd+Shift+P (macOS)
  2. Type "Generate Project Structure" and select the command

Note: Command Palette only provides "Generate Project Structure" option.

Right-Click Context Menu

  • On Files: Shows only "Generate Project Structure"
  • On Folders: Shows both "Generate Project Structure" and "Generate Directory Structure"

Key Difference:

  • Command Palette: Only generates project structure
  • Right-click Folders: Can choose between project structure or directory structure

⚙️ Configuration Options

Access settings by searching for "projectStructure" in VS Code settings or use the "Configure Project Structure Generator" command.

Available Settings

Setting Type Default Description
projectStructure.outputFileName string "README" Output file name for project structure
projectStructure.directoryOutputFileName string "README" Output file name for directory structure
projectStructure.ignoredPatterns array [".git", ".idea", ".vscode", "dist", "node_modules"] Files/directories to ignore
projectStructure.maxDepth number 10 Maximum directory depth to scan
projectStructure.autoUpdate boolean false Auto-update when files change

🔄 Auto-Update Feature

When enabled, the extension automatically regenerates the project structure when you:

  • Create new files or folders
  • Delete files or folders
  • Rename files or folders

To enable auto-update:

  1. Open VS Code settings
  2. Search for projectStructure.autoUpdate
  3. Check the box to enable

Note: Auto-update only affects the project structure (saved to root), not directory-specific structures.

🔧 Resetting Settings

If you have previously customized settings and want to use the new defaults:

  1. Open VS Code settings
  2. Search for the setting you want to reset
  3. Click the gear icon next to the setting
  4. Select "Reset Setting"

📁 File Comments

The extension supports comments after file names using the # symbol:

src/
├── components/
│   ├── Button.vue # Reusable button component
│   └── Modal.vue # Modal dialog component
├── utils/
│   └── helpers.js # Utility functions
└── main.js # Application entry point

To add comments, simply include them in existing structure files after the # symbol.

📋 Example Output

my-project # 
├── src # 
│   ├── components # 
│   │   ├── Header.vue # Navigation header component
│   │   ├── Footer.vue # Page footer component
│   │   └── Button.vue # Reusable button component
│   ├── router # 
│   │   └── index.js # Vue router configuration
│   ├── store # 
│   │   └── index.js # Vuex store setup
│   ├── utils # 
│   │   └── api.js # API helper functions
│   ├── App.vue # Main application component
│   └── main.js # Application entry point
├── public # 
│   ├── index.html # HTML template
│   └── favicon.ico # Site icon
├── package.json # Project dependencies
└── README.md # Project documentation

中文版本

VS Code 扩展,用于扫描项目文件并生成结构化的目录树文件。支持文件变化时自动更新!

✨ 功能特色

  • 双生成模式:项目整体结构或目录特定结构
  • 智能文件注释:保留并显示文件名后用 # 标记的注释
  • 自动更新:可选的文件/文件夹创建、删除或重命名时自动重新生成
  • 灵活配置:可自定义忽略模式、扫描深度和输出文件名
  • 多语言支持:中英文界面
  • 智能过滤:默认忽略常见目录如 .git、.idea、.vscode、dist、node_modules

🚀 使用方法

两个生成命令

1. 生成项目结构

  • 功能:从根目录扫描整个项目
  • 保存位置:始终保存到项目根目录
  • 使用场景:用于完整的项目文档
  • 访问方式:
    • 命令面板:"生成项目结构"
    • 文件右键:"生成项目结构"
    • 文件夹右键:"生成项目结构"

2. 生成目录结构

  • 功能:仅扫描选中的目录
  • 保存位置:保存到选中的目录
  • 使用场景:用于记录特定模块或子目录
  • 访问方式:
    • 文件夹右键:"生成目录结构"

命令访问方式

命令面板

  1. 按 Ctrl+Shift+P (Windows/Linux) 或 Cmd+Shift+P (macOS)
  2. 输入"生成项目结构"并选择命令

注意:命令面板仅提供"生成项目结构"选项。

右键菜单

  • 文件右键:仅显示"生成项目结构"
  • 文件夹右键:显示"生成项目结构"和"生成目录结构"

重要区别:

  • 命令面板:只能生成项目结构
  • 右键文件夹:可选择生成项目结构或目录结构

⚙️ 配置选项

在 VS Code 设置中搜索"projectStructure"或使用"配置项目结构生成器"命令访问设置。

可用设置

设置项 类型 默认值 描述
projectStructure.outputFileName 字符串 "README" 项目结构输出文件名
projectStructure.directoryOutputFileName 字符串 "README" 目录结构输出文件名
projectStructure.ignoredPatterns 数组 [".git", ".idea", ".vscode", "dist", "node_modules"] 要忽略的文件/目录
projectStructure.maxDepth 数字 10 扫描的最大目录深度
projectStructure.autoUpdate 布尔值 false 文件变化时自动更新

🔄 自动更新功能

启用后,扩展将在以下情况下自动重新生成项目结构:

  • 创建新文件或文件夹
  • 删除文件或文件夹
  • 重命名文件或文件夹

启用自动更新:

  1. 打开 VS Code 设置
  2. 搜索 projectStructure.autoUpdate
  3. 勾选复选框启用

注意:自动更新仅影响项目结构(保存到根目录),不影响目录特定结构。

🔧 重置设置

如果您之前自定义过设置并想使用新的默认值:

  1. 打开 VS Code 设置
  2. 搜索要重置的设置
  3. 点击设置旁边的齿轮图标
  4. 选择"重置设置"

📁 文件注释

扩展支持使用 # 符号在文件名后添加注释:

src/
├── components/
│   ├── Button.vue # 可复用按钮组件
│   └── Modal.vue # 模态对话框组件
├── utils/
│   └── helpers.js # 工具函数
└── main.js # 应用程序入口点

要添加注释,只需在现有结构文件中 # 符号后包含它们。
