Features

Installation

Using dompare

Basic usage

dompare folder-a folder-b

Then open your webbrowser and visit http://localhost:5140, you will see the difference information of folder-a and folder-b.

Public access

You can also use --host and --port options to change your host and port to listen:

dompare folder-a folder-b --host 0.0.0.0 --port 8888

By adding --host 0.0.0.0, you and other people can visit diff file by url http://your_ip:5140/dompare-xxxxxx.html.

Exclude binary folders

You can add --exclude dir1 dir2 to ignore certain directories (e.g., temporal folders, folders with binary files):

dompare dir1 dir2 --exclude build out

Verbose mode

If you need more detailed information, use --verbose option.

dompare folder-a folder-b --verbose

For all options, run dompare -h.

dompare -h

               [--exclude EXCLUDE [EXCLUDE ...]]
               dir1 dir2

positional arguments:
  dir1                  Path to the first directory
  dir2                  Path to the second directory

optional arguments:
  -h, --help            show this help message and exit
  --host HOST           host to bind
  --port PORT           port to listen
  --verbose             Show detailed information
  --exclude EXCLUDE [EXCLUDE ...]
                        Ignore listed directories when diff

TODO

There are some ideas I want to do in the future:

  1. Windows support (tested on Windows 8.1, Python 3.7.2)
  2. More pretty UI to show diff, like font size, scroll bar removing
