≫ mktree

mktree is an s-expression based configuration language for generating boilerplate files and directories.

With mktree, writing a code generator is as easy as declaring the filesystem layout:

; file: layout.tree
(dir "users/%(username)"
  (file "README.md"
      (@contents "This directory belongs to %(username)")
      (@perms 0666)))

And running mktree:

mktree -vars=username=$(whoami) layout.tree
