const folder = await drop();
const dir = await readdir(folder[0].path)
let content = `
| Filename | MD5 Hash |
| -------- | -------- |
`;
const hashes = {}
dir.forEach(file => {
  const fullPath = `${folder[0].path}/${file}`

  const stats = fs.statSync(fullPath);
  if (stats.isDirectory()) { return; }

  const fileData = fs.readFileSync(fullPath)
  const hash = crypto.createHash('md5').update(fileData).digest('hex')
  if (hashes[hash]) {
    return hashes[hash].push(file)
  } 
  hashes[hash] = [file]
})

Object.entries(hashes).forEach(([hash, listOfFiles]) => {
  if (listOfFiles.length > 1) {
    listOfFiles.forEach(file => {
      content += `| ${file} | ${hash.slice(0,4) + "..." + hash.slice(-4)} |\n`
    })
  }
})

await div(md(content))
