{syncdr} is an R package designed to facilitate the process of directory comparison and synchronization. This package provides essential tools for users who need to manage and synchronize their directories effectively.

With {syncdr}, users can:

• Visualize Directory Structures: Gain a comprehensive view of directory contents, including the tree structure, common files, and files unique to each directory.

• Manage Files with Ease: Perform content-based and modification date-based file comparisons, and handle tasks like identifying duplicates, copying, moving, and deleting files seamlessly within the R environment. By incorporating {syncdr} into their workflow, users can achieve a more organized and up-to-date file system, simplifying the overall management and synchronization of directories.

You can install the development version of syncdr from GitHub with:

# install.packages("devtools")
devtools::install_github("RossanaTat/syncdr")

library(syncdr)

# Generate toy directories to show package usage

# --- Create .syncdrenv --- #
.syncdrenv <- toy_dirs()
left       <- .syncdrenv$left
right      <-  .syncdrenv$right

# --- Compare synchronization status of the two directories --- #
# comparing by date of last modification
sync_status <- compare_directories(left_path   = left,
                                   right_path  = right)

# --- Display synchronization status --- #
