Structure Map

A Visual Studio Code extension to list and map your project folder structure in a markdown file, including information about ignored files and folders based on .gitignore.

Features

• Automatically generates a hierarchical representation of your project's folder structure.
• Supports recursive listing of folders and files.
• Includes ignored files and folders based on .gitignore in the summary.
• Saves the folder structure to a markdown file in the root of your project.
• Folders are prioritized at the top of the structure.
• Easily accessible with a custom keyboard shortcut.

Installation

1. Open Visual Studio Code.
2. Go to the Extensions view by clicking the Extensions icon in the Activity Bar on the side of the window or by pressing Ctrl+Shift+X.
3. Search for Structure Map and click Install.

Alternatively, you can install it directly from the marketplace by visiting the Structure Map Extension Page and clicking the Install button.

Usage

Command Palette:

1. Open your project folder in VS Code.
2. Press Ctrl+Shift+P (or Cmd+Shift+P on macOS) to open the Command Palette.
3. Type Structure Map: Create Folder Structure and press Enter. This will generate a folder_structure.md file in your root directory.

Keyboard Shortcut:

By default, you can use the following keyboard shortcut to generate the folder structure file:

• Windows/Linux: Ctrl+Alt+F
• macOS: Cmd+Alt+F

The extension will create a folder_structure.md file with the project folder structure in markdown format, starting with the root folder and prioritizing folders before files.

Output Format

The generated folder_structure.md file will have the following format:
