# tree
> Show the contents of the current directory as a tree.
- Show files and directories up to 'num' levels of depth (where 1 means the current directory):
2014-04-14 18:56:07 +01:00
`tree -L {{num}}`
- Show directories only:
2014-04-14 18:56:07 +01:00
`tree -d`
- Show hidden files too:
2014-04-14 18:56:07 +01:00
`tree -a`
2016-09-16 11:40:15 +01:00
- Print the tree without indentation lines, showing the full path instead (use `-N` to not escape whitespace and special characters):
2014-04-14 18:56:07 +01:00
`tree -i -f`
2015-12-29 04:13:19 +00:00
- Print the size of each node next to it, in human-readable format, with folders displaying their cumulative size (as in the `du` command):
2015-12-29 04:13:19 +00:00
`tree -s -h --du`
2015-12-29 04:13:19 +00:00
- Find files within the tree hierarchy, using a wildcard (glob) pattern, and pruning out directories that don't contain matching files:
2015-12-29 04:13:19 +00:00
`tree -P '{{*.txt}}' --prune`
- Find directories within the tree hierarchy, pruning out directories that aren't ancestors of the wanted one:
`tree -P {{directory_name}} --matchdirs --prune`
