## Description > Fast Files is a project consisting of two bash scripts, `ff` and `ffv`, that combine the functionality of `mkdir` and `touch`, enabling you to create directory structures and files in a single command. The `ffv` script additionally prints the created objects in a tree-like structure using `eza`, `lsd` or `ls`.
ff is a bash script which is a combination of 'mkdir' and 'touch'. It can create directory structures and files simultaneously and lists the created objects using eza, lsd, or ls. ## Scripts
## Dependencies - `ff`: creates the specified files and directories without printing any output.
- `ffv`: performs the same operations as `ff` but also lists the created objects.
## ✨ Features
- Create single or multiple files and directories in one command.
- Automatically create parent directories as needed.
- Supports brace expansion for creating complex directory and file structures in one go.
- Optionally lists the created objects with enhanced listing tools (`eza` or `lsd`) if available, or fallback to `ls` (`ffv` only).
## 🛠️ Dependencies
- bash - bash
- [eza](https://github.com/eza-community/eza) (optional) - Optional: [eza](https://github.com/eza-community/eza) or [lsd](https://github.com/lsd-rs/lsd) for enhanced directory listing
- [lsd](https://github.com/lsd-rs/lsd) (optional)
## Usage ## 🏗️ Installation
Place both scripts in a directory included in your `$PATH`. Ensure the scripts are executable:
```bash
chmod +x /path/to/ff
chmod +x /path/to/ffv
```
## 🚀 Usage
```bash ```bash
ff [path file or folder] ff [path file or folder]
--help : prints usage info ffv [path file or folder]
``` ```
## Examples ### Arguments
### Single file - `--help` or `-h` : Prints usage information
### Examples
- Create a single file:
```bash ```bash
ff file ff file
``` ```
``` ```
file ───file
``` ```
### Single directory - Create a single directory:
```bash ```bash
ff dir/ ff dir/
``` ```
``` ```
dir ───dir
``` ```
### Multiple files - Create multiple files:
```bash ```bash
ff file1 file2 file3 ff file1 file2 file3
``` ```
``` ```
file1 ┌─file1
file2 ─┼─file2
file3 └─file3
``` ```
### Multiple directories - Create multiple directories:
```bash ```bash
ff dir1/ dir2/ dir3/ ff dir1/ dir2/ dir3/
``` ```
``` ```
dir1 ┌─dir1
dir2 ─┼─dir2
dir3 └─dir3
``` ```
### File in a directory - Create a file in a directory:
```bash ```bash
ff dir/file ff dir/file
``` ```
``` ```
dir ───dir───file
└── file
``` ```
### Directory in a directory - Create a directory within a directory:
```bash ```bash
ff dir1/dir2/ ff dir1/dir2/
``` ```
``` ```
dir1 ───dir1───dir2
└── dir2
``` ```
### Multiple files in multiple directories - Create multiple files in multiple directories:
```bash ```bash
ff dir1/dir2/file1 dir3/file2 ff dir1/dir2/file1 dir3/file2
``` ```
``` ```
dir1 ┌─dir1───dir2───file1
└── dir2 ─┴─dir3───file2
└── file1
dir3
└── file2
``` ```
### If your shell supports brace expansion e.g bash, zsh, fish - Use [brace expansion](https://www.gnu.org/software/bash/manual/html_node/Brace-Expansion.html) for complex structures (supported in bash, zsh, fish):
```bash ```bash
ff dir1/{dir2/{file1,file2}.txt,dir3/file3.txt} ff dir1/{dir2/{file1,file2}.txt,dir3/file3.txt}
``` ```
``` ```
dir1 ┌─file1.txt
├── dir2 ───dir1─┬─dir2─┴─file2.txt
│ ├── file1.txt └─dir3───file3.txt
│ └── file2.txt
└── dir3
└── file3.txt
``` ```
