Python script for a searching duplicate files in folder. Modification of: https://www.pythoncentral.io/finding-duplicate-files-with-python/ (file size counter was added)

duplicates_finder.py

# dupFinder.py
import os, sys, stat
import hashlib

def findDup(parentFolder):
    # Dups in format {hash:[names]}
    dups = {}
    for dirName, subdirs, fileList in os.walk(parentFolder):
        print('Scanning %s...' % dirName)
        for filename in fileList:
            # Get the path to the file
            path = os.path.join(dirName, filename)
            # Calculate hash
            file_hash = hashfile(path)
            # Add or append the file path
            if file_hash in dups:
                dups[file_hash]['path'].append(path)
            else:
                dups[file_hash] = {}
                dups[file_hash]['path'] = [path]
                if os.path.isfile(path):
                    dups[file_hash]['size'] = os.stat(path)[stat.ST_SIZE]
    return dups
 
 
# Joins two dictionaries

    for key in dict2.keys():
        if key in dict1:
            dict1[key]['path'] += dict2[key]['path']
        else:
            dict1[key] = dict2[key]
 
 
def hashfile(path, blocksize = 65536):
    afile = open(path, 'rb')
    hasher = hashlib.md5()
    buf = afile.read(blocksize)
    while len(buf) > 0:
        hasher.update(buf)
        buf = afile.read(blocksize)
    afile.close()
    return hasher.hexdigest()

            return "%3.1f%s%s" % (num, unit, suffix)
        num /= 1024.0
    return "%.1f%s%s" % (num, 'Yi', suffix)
 
def printResults(dict1):

if __name__ == '__main__':

        folders = sys.argv[1:]
        for i in folders:
            # Iterate the folders given
            if os.path.exists(i):
                # Find the duplicated files and append them to the dups
                joinDicts(dups, findDup(i))
            else:
                print('%s is not a valid path, please verify' % i)
                sys.exit()
        printResults(dups)
    else:
        print('Usage: python duplicates_finder.py folder or python duplicates_finder.py folder1 folder2 folder3')

The following update is working:

Joins two dictionaries

def joinDicts(dict1, dict2):
for key in dict2.keys():
if key in dict1:
#dict1[key] = dict1[key] + dict2[key]
dict1[key]['path'] += dict2[key]['path']
else:
dict1[key] = dict2[key]

@ramakrishnaraov Thank you, I fixed it.
