  "github_readme_excerpt": "# The **D**irectory **D**ifferential **h**Tool\nDDH traverses input directories and their subdirectories. It also hashes files as needed and reports findings.\n\nThe H in \"hTool\" is silent. The H in its abbreviation, \"DDH,\" is not.\n\nThis tool is called DDH for two very good reasons.\n* DDT is a dangerous pesticide\n* I mistyped when I created the project\n\n## Usage\nDDH is usable both as a library and as a stand alone CLI tool and aims to be simple to use in both cases.\n\n## Library example\n```rust\nlet (files, errors): (Vec\u003cFileinfo\u003e, Vec\u003c(_, _)\u003e) = ddh::deduplicate_dirs(dirs);\nlet (shared, unique): (Vec\u003c\u0026Fileinfo\u003e, Vec\u003c\u0026Fileinfo\u003e) = files\n                    .par_iter()\n                    .partition(|\u0026x| x.get_paths().len()\u003e1);\nprocess_full_output(\u0026shared, \u0026unique, \u0026files, \u0026errors, \u0026arguments);\n```\n\n## CLI Install\n* Install [Rust](https://www.rust-lang.org/en-US/install.html)\n* `cargo install --git https://github.com/darakian/ddh ddh`\n* The DDH binary will be installed into `$CARGO_HOME/.bin/ddh`, which usually is `$HOME/.cargo/bin/ddh`. This should be in your `PATH` already if you\u0027re using rustup.\n\n## CLI Features\nDDH supports both a `standard` output for human comprehension and a parsable `json` output for custom tools such as [ddh-move](https://github.com/JayWalker512/ddh-move).\n\n## CLI Example\n```\nDirectory Difference hTool\nJon Moroney jmoroney@hawaii.edu\nCompare and contrast directories.\n\nExample invocation: ddh -v duplicates -d /home/jon/downloads /home/jon/documents\nExample pipe: ddh -o no -v all -f json -d ~/Downloads/ | someJsonParser.bin\n\nUsage: ddh [OPTIONS]\n\nOptions:\n  -m, --minimum [\u003cMIN_SIZE\u003e]\n          Minimum file size in bytes to consider [default: 0]\n  -b, --blocksize [\u003cBLOCKSIZE\u003e]\n          Set the display blocksize to Bytes, Kilobytes, Megabytes or Gigabytes [default: K] [possible values: B, K, M, G]\n  -v, --verbosity [\u003cVERBOSITY\u003e]\n          Set verbosity for printed output [default: quiet] [possible values: quiet, duplicates, all]\n  -o, --output [\u003cOUT",
