Creating Stack Graph of Nested Dirs/Files - Question about stack-graphs HOT 2 CLOSED

Hi @maxwnewcomer! Good question. What you are trying to achieve is certainly possible. You'll need to orchestrate a little using the API to make it happen. The general structure would be something like this:

1. For each directory in the tree (from top to bottom), create the nodes for that directory, and build the directory structure by creating edges between those nodes. This wouldn't be done using TSG, because that requires a syntax tree, which directories don't have. So you'll have to do that programmatically using the API. Create a file handle for each directory with StackGraph::add_file and create nodes with the other methods in StackGraph for each directory.
2. Build the stack graphs for the f*.py files using the TSG file using StackGraphLanguage.html::build_stack_graph_into. To make the connection with the containing directory, add global variables with the nodes files should connect to. In the TSG, declare that global variable, e.g. global DIR_NODE, and then add edges as you would with the ROOT_NODE.

Hope this helps to get going!

Yes this makes so much sense, thank you so much for the clarification! Going to close, but will reopen if I have any further questions. Again, thanks so much.
