Generate web pages based on a directory structure


I need to create a script that would take a directory (with its subdirectories and or files) and, based on them, generate a series of html documents displaying the files and accompanying icons of choice (eg. file, image, etc.)

The html bit is not a problem. I think I can write such a script in Python. Just asking whether something like that already exists.

Thanks

No script is needed. Set up nginx or Apache and turn on Directory Indexes. Style them with this: http://larsjung.de/h5ai/
