ruby cookbook -- Files and Directories

Chapter 6. Files and Directories
创建目录结构的代码

# create_tree.rb
def create_tree(directories, parent=".")
  directories.each_pair do |dir, files|
    path = File.join(parent, dir)
    Dir.mkdir path unless File.exists? path
    files.each do |filename, contents|
      if filename.respond_to? :each_pair  # It's a subdirectory
        create_tree filename, path
      else # It's a file
        open(File.join(path, filename), 'w') { |f| f << contents || "" }
      end
    end
   end
  end

Now I can present th directory structure as a data structure and you can create it with a single method call:

require 'create_tree'
create_tree 'test' =>
  [ 'An empty file',
    ['A file with contents', 'Contents of file'],
    { 'Subdirectory' => ['Empty file in subdirectory',
                        ['File in subdirectory', 'Contents of file'] ] },
    { 'Empty subdirectory' => [] }
]

require 'find'
Find.find('test') { |f| puts f }
# test
# test/Empty subdirectory
# test/Subdirectory
# test/Subdirectory/File in subdirectory
# test/Subdirectory/Empty file in subdirectory
# test/A file with contents
# test/An empty file

File.read('test/Subdirectory/File in subdirectory')
# => "Contents of file"

==============
有点疑问，string也可以each |key，value|么？试下
irb(main):019:0> 'a'.each do | t,td|
irb(main):020:1* puts 1 if t
irb(main):021:1> puts 2 if td
irb(main):022:1> end
1
=> "a"
原来可以。。
