compare-folders
Installation
It is recommended to install using pipx, but you can also use pip. See https://pypi.org/project/pipx/.
pipx install compare-folders
Usage
Programmatically
compare-folders path\to\source path\to\destination
This will write a markdown file with:
- missing files from the source not in the destination
- extra files in the destination not in the source
- files in both locations with different modification dates
It will also print a table of stats.
Use -o/--output to override the output filename. If the output file already exists, the resulsts will be appended to the file, unless you specify --no-append, in which case the file will be overwritten.
GUI
compare-folders --gui
This will open a GUI where you can select the source and destination folders, and then click "Run Comparison" to see the results.
Command line arguments are also supported in GUI mode, so you can specify the source and destination folders, and the output file, when launching the GUI.
