Overview

This PR introduces folder structure support in the generate and validate commands, along with improved logging functionality using colorlog for better debugging and runtime insights.

Changes

• Folder Structure Support:
  • The generate.py script now supports creating folder structures from YAML definitions.
  • Added validation for the folder structure in validate.py, ensuring folders are correctly defined and contain a valid struct key.
• Logging Enhancements:
  • New logging configuration file logging_config.py introduced, integrating colorlog for color-coded log output.
  • Refactored log levels in various parts of the code, changing some info logs to debug where appropriate for better verbosity control.
• Dependency Update:
  • Added colorlog to requirements.txt to support colored logging.

Justification

The ability to define folder structures in YAML is critical for handling more complex project setups, especially for projects relying on modular directory layouts. Enhanced logging is essential for improving the traceability and debuggability of the tool's operations.

Impact

• Teams will now be able to define and validate folder structures more easily within the configuration files.
• Logging improvements will make debugging easier and more informative, particularly during dry runs and when setting up folder hierarchies.
• The addition of colorlog may require updating environments to include the new dependency.
