twintrimmer 0.14

Introduction
Twintrimmer is a project designed to automatically remove duplicate files
specially those created by downloading in a browser.

Modivation
Relatively often I find that I download a file multiple times using Chrome
or Firefox and they rather than over writing the file “<filename>.<ext>”
will name the newest copy “<filename> (#).<ext>” I built this tool to
automatically remove duplicate versions by comparing the names and then
validating the content with a checksum.


Usage

usage: twintrim [-h] [-n] [-r] [–verbosity VERBOSITY]
[–log-file LOG_FILE] [–log-level LOG_LEVEL]
[-p PATTERN] [-c] [-i]
[–hash-function {‘sha224’, ‘sha384’, ‘sha1’, ‘md5’, ‘sha512’, ‘sha256’}
[–make-links] [–remove-links]
path


tool for removing duplicate files

positional arguments:
path path to check

optional arguments:

-h, --help
show this help message and exit

-n, --no-action
show what files would have been deleted

-r, --recursive
search directories recursively

--verbosity VERBOSITY
set print debug level

--log-file LOG_FILE
write to log file.

--log-level LOG_LEVEL
set log file debug level

-p PATTERN, --pattern PATTERN
set filename matching regex

-c, --only-checksum
toggle searching by checksum rather than name first

-i, --interactive
ask for file deletion interactively

--hash-function
{‘sha224’, ‘sha384’, ‘sha1’, ‘md5’, ‘sha512’, ‘sha256’}
set hash function to use for checksums

--make-link
create hard link rather than remove file

--remove-links
remove hardlinks rather than skipping

--version
show program’s version number and exit





Examples

find matches with default regex:
$ twintrim -n ~/downloads
find matches ignoring the extension:
$ ls examples/
Google.html Google.html~
$ twintrim -n -p '(^.+?)(?: \(\d\))*\..+' examples/
examples/Google.html~ would have been deleted
find matches with “__1” added to basename:
$ ls examples/underscore/
file__1.txt file.txt
$ twintrim -n -p '(.+?)(?:__\d)*\..*' examples/underscore/
examples/underscore/file__1.txt to be deleted



Try it out
If you would like to try it out I have included an example directory. After
cloning the repository, try running:
python -m twintrimmer examples/



Running the Tests

Unit tests
To run tests:
python -m unittest discover -p '*_test.py'
or using nose:
python3 -m nose --with-json-extended

note:
pyfakefs is not being updated on pypi and should be installed directly
from the github repository, due to issues with pyfakefs and python3 in
the pypi version


command to install pyfakefs:
pip install git+https://github.com/jmcgeheeiv/pyfakefs


Code coverage
To show the test coverage:
python -m nose --with-coverage --cover-package twintrimmer.twintrimmer


Behavior tests
To run tests:
behave



Making the Documentation

HTML docs
cd docs/
make html


Documentation Coverage Report
To make the coverage report appear in the docs:
cd docs/
make coverage

Optionally, you can view the coverage report directly after
running make coverage:
cat _build/coverage/python.txt



Miscellaneous
Hash algorithm options
Depending on your installed OpenSSL library your available algorithms might change.
The following are the hash algorithms guaranteed to be supported by this
module on all platforms.

sha224
sha384
sha1
md5
sha512
sha256

Additionally, these algorithms might be available (potentially more)

ecdsa-with-SHA1
whirlpool
dsaWithSHA
ripemd160
md4

For more information on these algorithms please see the hashlib documentation:
