How I got to automated html nav

gistfile1.rb

require "pathname"
require 'set'

# @base_path = Pathname.new(File.dirname(__FILE__))

# def collect_paths(path)
#   result = Set.new
#   result.add?(path)
#   puts "entering method"
#   paths = []
#   path.children.each do |p|
#     puts "entering submethod"
#     paths << p
#     if p.directory? 
#       puts "FOUND A DIR #{p}" 
#       result.add?(path)
#     else
#       puts "stop! #{p}"
#     end
#     collect_paths p if p.directory?
#   end
#   return result
# end
# 
# nav_items = collect_paths(@base_path).inspect
# 
# nav_items.each do |nav|
#   puts nav
# end

# collected.each do |c|
#   puts c.to_s
# end
# 
# paths = Dir.glob("/Users/gareth/Code/docs/public/contents/**/*").select { |f| File.directory?(f) }.map{ |path| path.split '/' }.inject({}) { |acc, path| path.inject(acc) do |acc2,dir|
#   acc2[dir] ||= {} # and pass it as new current node
# end
# acc
# }


# require 'find'
# 
# 
# Find.find("/Users/gareth/Code/docs/public/contents/") do |path|
#   if FileTest.directory?(path)
#     if File.basename(path)[0] == ?.
#       Find.prune       # Don't look any further into this directory.
#     else
#       next
#     end
#   else
#     total_size += FileTest.size(path)
#   end
# end


# Pathname.glob("/Users/gareth/Code/docs/public/contents/") do |path|
#   dirs = path.children.group_by { |c| c.parent }
#   
#   dirs.each do |d|
#     first.children.group_by { |c| c.parent }
#   end
# end

# root_path = Pathname.new(File.dirname(__FILE__))
# 
# 
# def recursive_dirs(root_path)
#   Pathname.glob(root_path) do |path|

# end
# 
# nav = recursive_dirs(root_path)
# 
# puts nav.inspect
# 
# 

htmlfiles = File.join("**", "*.html")

nav = Pathname.glob(htmlfiles).group_by { |p| p.parent  }

# puts nav.inspect
nav.each do |key, value|
  puts key
  value.each do |v|
    puts "--> #{v}"
  end
end
