This was a big jump up from yesterday's problem. The bulk of the work was in the parsing of the input. I pattern matched on each line, keeping track of the current directory and the filesystem scanned so far. I skipped all lines with the ls command because they did not add any information. I also kept track of the total size of each directory. Every time I came across a file, I added its size to the total size of every parent folder. The resulting data structure from the example input looks like this:

%{
  "/" => %{
    :files => %{
      "b.txt" => 14848514,
      "c.dat" => 8504156
    },
    :total_size => 48381165,
    "a" => %{
      :files => %{
        "f" => 29116,
        "g" => 2557,
        "h.lst" => 62596
      },
      :total_size => 94853,
      "e" => %{
        files: %{"i" => 584},
        total_size: 584
      }
    },
    "d" => %{
      files: %{
        "d.ext" => 5626152,
        "d.log" => 8033020,
        "j" => 4060174,
        "k" => 7214296
      },
      total_size: 24933642
    }
  }
}

After scanning the entire filesystem, each part just required traversing the tree again to determine the answer. Turns out that I didn't really need to keep track of the files at all. Since mapping over the keys of the folder would include the total size and files, I had to remove them to recursively check the other folders.

      true -> []
    end
  end

  def part1, do: parse_filesystem() |> (fn %{"/" => root} -> total_size_under_100000(root) end).()

  def part2 do
    %{"/" => %{total_size: used_space} = root} = parse_filesystem()
    space_needed = 30000000 - (70000000 - used_space)
    large_enough(root, space_needed) |> Enum.min()
