class dircmp:
"""A class that manages the comparison of 2 directories.
dircmp(a, b, ignore=None, hide=None, *, shallow=True)
A and B are directories.
IGNORE is a list of names to ignore,
defaults to DEFAULT_IGNORES.
HIDE is a list of names to hide,
defaults to [os.curdir, os.pardir].
SHALLOW specifies whether to just check the stat signature (do not read
the files).
defaults to True.
High level usage:
x = dircmp(dir1, dir2)
x.report() -> prints a report on the differences between dir1 and dir2
or
x.report_partial_closure() -> prints report on differences between dir1
and dir2, and reports on common immediate subdirectories.
x.report_full_closure() -> like report_partial_closure,
but fully recursive.
Attributes:
left_list, right_list: The files in dir1 and dir2,
filtered by hide and ignore.
common: a list of names in both dir1 and dir2.
left_only, right_only: names only in dir1, dir2.
common_dirs: subdirectories in both dir1 and dir2.
common_files: files in both dir1 and dir2.
common_funny: names in both dir1 and dir2 where the type differs between
dir1 and dir2, or the name is not stat-able.
same_files: list of identical files.
diff_files: list of filenames which differ.
funny_files: list of files which could not be compared.
subdirs: a dictionary of dircmp instances (or MyDirCmp instances if this
object is of type MyDirCmp, a subclass of dircmp), keyed by names
in common_dirs.
