ContentExt is a Node.js tool for extracting content from files in the project folder of a web app or website. It creates a text file as an output with a readable file structure and the content of the included files.

API Usage:

1. Install ContentExt as a dependency in your project:

   npm install contentext

2. Import ContentExt in your code:

   const contentext = require("contentext");`

3. Configure the options and call the desired functions:

   const config = {
     rootPath: ".",               // Set the root path of the project
     fileTypes: [],               // Set the file types to process
     excludeDirs: [],             // Set the directories to exclude
     excludeFiles: [],            // Set the files to exclude
     includeFiles: [],            // Set the specific files to include
     ignoreVcs: true,             // Ignore version control system directories
     outputFilePath: "content_snapshot.txt", // Set the output file path
     minify: false,               // Minify the extracted content
   };
   
   // Extract content and generate output
   const extractedContent = contentext.extractContent(config);
   contentext.generateOutput(extractedContent, "", config.outputFilePath, config.minify);

CLI Usage:
