dirman

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.

Installation

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	Shows this help message.		boolean	true or false, obviously
-c	--compare	Comparison method (comma-separated for multiple).	hash	string (array)	options are: hash, basename, and size.
-m	--match	Matching condition.	all	string (enum)	all or any

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:

dirman /path/to/folder1 /path/to/folder2 -c hash,size -m any

This will find any files in /path/to/folder1 that either have a different hash or size compared to files in /path/to/folder2.
