[Golang] Compare the Size of Two Files
This post shows how to check if the size of two files is the same. Use os.Stat [2] to read information (os.FileInfo) of file and check if the size is the same.
import (
"os"
)
func isFileSameSize(path1, path2 string) (sameSize bool, err error) {
f1, err := os.Stat(path1)
if err != nil {
return
}
f2, err := os.Stat(path2)
if err != nil {
return
}
sameSize = (f1.Size() == f2.Size())
return
}
Tested on: Ubuntu Linux 17.10, Go 1.10
