dirman is a command-line tool designed to help you quickly identify which files exist in one directory but not another.
Use case: I have a lot of versions of folder archives, so this helps with this, I guess.
NOW WITH FEATURES!:
- Compares files based on hash, size, or basename.
- Flexible matching conditions: require all files to match (default) or any file.
Node.js v18 or later. To install dirman globally: yarn global add dirman
Usage:
dirman <directory1> <directory2> [options]
Options:
| Short Option | Alias | Description | Default | Type | Notez |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
-h |
--help |

-c |
--compare |
Comparison method (comma-separated for multiple). | hash |
string (array) | options are: hash, basename, and size. |
-m |
--match |

Comparison Methods:
hash: Compares file content based on xxhash3.size: Compares file size in bytes.basename: Compares file names (without path).
Match Conditions:
all: All comparison methods must match.any: Any comparison methods may match.
Example:
