Deduplication Tool (Python)

This tool is a simple implementation for reading duplicate data and storing the file slack of each found file.

Requirements

With the exception of the AFF4 support no additional libraries have to be installed. For the AFF4 support please install the following package(s):

  • pyaff4 (0.23+)

Configuration

To create a new configuration:

python main.py --generateconfig "/path/to/writable/location/myconfigname.py"

To use an existing configuration outside of the install dir:

python main.py --useconfig "/path/to/writable/location/myconfigname.py"

Override Devices via Arguments

Instead of providing different configurations for different use cases you can override devices via arguments:

python main.py --useconfig '/path/to/config/configname.py' --device (1,'Device Name 1','/mnt/dev1') (2,'Device Name 2','/mnt/dev2')

This will load the devices (if specified) and settings from your configuration and add/override the devices. To override a device simply specify a device with the same id.

Help
