# DirectoryTree
A tree control to navigate the contents of your filesystem.
- [x] Focusable
- [ ] Container
## Example
The example below creates a simple tree to navigate the current working directory.
```python
--8<-- "docs/examples/widgets/directory_tree.py"
```
## Filtering
There may be times where you want to filter what appears in the
`DirectoryTree`. To do this inherit from `DirectoryTree` and implement your
own version of the `filter_paths` method. It should take an iterable of
Python `Path` objects, and return those that pass the filter. For example,
if you wanted to take the above code an filter out all of the "hidden" files
and directories:
=== "Output"
```{.textual path="docs/examples/widgets/directory_tree_filtered.py"}
```
=== "directory_tree_filtered.py"
~~~python
--8<-- "docs/examples/widgets/directory_tree_filtered.py"
~~~
