compare_folders: Compare Folders and Find Differences

In mackerman44/DASH: DASH: Drone Assisted Stream Habitat

Compare Folders and Find Differences

Description

Compare two folders, each presumably containing the same files, except with one folder containing files that have been modified or "fixed" by the user. For the DASH R package, the function can be useful for comparing a folder containing raw untouched on-the-ground (OTG) data from Survey123 with a folder containing the same files except modified by the user, presumably in an attempt to remedy errors identified during data import or QA/QC. Both path1 and path2 should only contain folders (no files) each representing a survey, and each of those folders should only contain files (no folders) containing the otg data.

Usage

compare_folders(path1 = ".", path2 = ".")

Arguments

path1	a path to the first folder of interest, perhaps the raw untouched data. path1 should only contain folders (no files), and each of those folders should only contain files (no folders).
path2	a path to the second folder of interest, perhaps the data files that have been modified or fixed by the user, presumably to remedy errors identified during data import or QA/QC.

Value

fill out return when ready
