const { findDuplicates } = require('duplicate-file-finder');
const sourcePath = 'photos'; // defaults to current directory.
const searchPaths = ['more-photos', 'even-more-photos']; // defaults to empty.
const duplicates = findDuplicates({ sourcePath, searchPaths }).then(duplicates => {
    // do something with duplicates.
});
