# dupe-finder
|
|
Because I couldn't find a good program for my usecase, I wrote this simple Go program to find duplicate files and clean them up.
|
|
|
|
## Installation
|
|
|
|
If you have go installed, the easiest way to install and update is `go get`:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
go get -u "github.com/JaCoB1123/dupe-finder"
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Otherwise you can download the latest binary from the [releases](https://github.com/JaCoB1123/dupe-finder/releases) page.
|
|
|
|
## Usage
|
|
|
|
dupe-finder supports the following options:
|
|
```
|
|
-delete-dupes-in string
|
|
Delete duplicates if they are contained in <path>
|
|
-delete-prompt
|
|
Ask which file to keep for each dupe-set
|
|
-force
|
|
Actually delete files. Without this options, the files to be deleted are only printed
|
|
-from-file string
|
|
Load results file from <path>
|
|
-move-files string
|
|
Move files to <path> instead of deleting them
|
|
-to-file string
|
|
Save results to <path>
|
|
-verbose
|
|
Output additional information
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Examples
|
|
|
|
Find all duplicate files in `~/` and save the results to `dupes.json`
|
|
```
|
|
> dupe-finder --to-file dupes.json ~/
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Load previous results from `dupes.json` and delete all duplicates located in ~/.cache
|
|
```
|
|
> dupe-finder --from-file dupes.json --delete-dupes-in ~/.cache
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Find all duplicate files in `~/' and `/mnt/EXT`. Prompt which file to keep for each set of duplicates and move the others to /dupes/.
|
|
```
|
|
> dupe-finder --delete-prompt --move-files /dupes/ ~/ /mnt/EXT
|
|
```
