Directory size

[ptbsG_Man]

Hi, i am looking for a script to get the directory size of a users root folder and all sub directorys some thing like this

yor web site is xxx MB out of your 20 MB

or another way to put it i need everything below

/home/MySiTe/

ohh yeah im on a winBOX so cant use "du -s"

I have tried this

function dirsize($directory)
{
$size = 0;
$d = opendir($directory);
while ($file = readdir($d))
{
$fullfilename = $directory."/".$file;
if($file == "." || $file == "..")
continue;
if(is_dir($fullfilename))
$size += dirsize($fullfilename);
else
$size += filesize($fullfilename);
}
closedir($d);
$kb = 1024; // Kilobyte
$mb = 1024 * $kb; // Megabyte
$gb = 1024 * $mb; // Gigabyte
$tb = 1024 * $gb; // Terabyte
if($size < $kb) 
{
return $size." B";
}
else if($size < $mb)
{
return number_format($size/$kb,2)." KB";
}
else if($size < $gb)
{
return number_format($size/$mb,2)." MB";
}
else if($size < $tb)	
{
return number_format($size/$gb,2)." GB";
}
else	
{
return number_format($size/$tb,2)." TB";
}
}

Thanks in advance

your function should return the size as a NUMBER, not a string...otherwise your recursive part,
$size += dirsize($fullfilename);
will just keep adding the string, and not the file sizes.

ptbsG_Man you're a lucky guy! I have a code very similar to what you're looking for... I fixed it up but I haven't tested it

function dirsize($iniDir) {
	$totalsize = 0;
	$file = "";
	$dirsleft = array();
	array_push($dirsleft, $iniDir);
	while (count($dirsleft)>0) {
		$curdir = array_pop($dirsleft);
		if ($handle = opendir($curdir)) {
			while (false !== ($file = readdir($handle))) { 
				if ($file != "." && $file != "..") { 
					if (is_dir($curdir."/".$file)) array_push($dirsleft, $curdir."/".$file);
					else $totalsize += filesize($curdir."/".$file);
				}
			}
			closedir($handle); 
		}
	}
	return $totalsize;
}

What do you mean a NUMBER i thought it was a number

Your function is returning this:

return number_format($size/$tb,2)." TB";

So, for example, that could be

"4.3 TB"

And that's a string, not a number.

That's why when you do this:

$size += dirsize($fullfilename);

The string will end up as

"3.4 B2.4 KB300 B"
and etc...

So, instead of

return number_format(etc);

you should just

return $size;

And THEN, outside the function, you have the if statements with the number format.
