disk_free_space
PHP 6 has already come to the market but still there are no standard function that can help retrieve directory size as it has to calculate disk space such as disk_total_space. Although we can use system level call such as exec() and system(), it is too risky to enable these function. So we look for an alternate method so as to calculate directory size.
Sol: retrieving directory size using php
<?php
function get_dir_size($dir_name){
$dir_size =0;
if (is_dir($dir_name)) {
if ($dh = opendir($dir_name)) {
while (($file = readdir($dh)) !== false) {
if($file !=”.” && $file != “..”){
if(is_file($dir_name.”/”.$file)){
$dir_size += filesize($dir_name.”/”.$file);
}
/* check for any new directory inside this directory */
if(is_dir($dir_name.”/”.$file)){
$dir_size += get_dir_size($dir_name.”/”.$file);
}
}
}
}
}
closedir($dh);
return $dir_size;
}
$dir_name = “directory name here”;
/* 1048576 bytes == 1MB */
$total_size= round((get_dir_size($dir_name) / 1048576),2) ;
print “Directory $dir_name size : $total_size MB”;
?>
Depending upon the size format you want to achieve, divide directory size by 1024 or 1024 * 1024 or 1024 * 1024 * 1024 for KB or MB or GB respectively.
disk_total_space
(PHP 4 >= 4.1.0, PHP 5)
disk_total_space — Returns the total size of a filesystem or disk partition
설명
float disk_total_space
( string $directory
)
Given a string containing a directory, this function will return the total number of bytes on the corresponding filesystem or disk partition.
인수
- directory
-
A directory of the filesystem or disk partition.
반환값
Returns the total number of bytes as a float or FALSE on failure.
예제
Example #1 disk_total_space() example
<?php
// $ds contains the total number of bytes available on "/"
$ds = disk_total_space("/");
// On Windows:
$ds = disk_total_space("C:");
$ds = disk_total_space("D:");
?>
주의
Note: 이 함수는 원격 파일을 다루지 못합니다. 파일은 서버 파일시스템을 통해서 사용 가능해야만 합니다.

Something that might go well with this function is the ability to list available disks. On Windows, here's the relevant code:
<?php
/**
* Finds a list of disk drives on the server.
* @return array The array velues are the existing disks.
*/
function get_disks(){
if(php_uname('s')=='Windows NT'){
// windows
$disks=`fsutil fsinfo drives`;
$disks=str_word_count($disks,1);
if($disks[0]!='Drives')return '';
unset($disks[0]);
foreach($disks as $key=>$disk)$disks[$key]=$disk.':\\';
return $disks;
}else{
// unix
$data=`mount`;
$data=explode(' ',$data);
$disks=array();
foreach($data as $token)if(substr($token,0,5)=='/dev/')$disks[]=$token;
return $disks;
}
}
?>
EXAMPLE OF USE:
<?php print_r(get_disks()); ?>
EXAMPLE RESULT:
Array
(
[1] => A:\
[2] => C:\
[3] => D:\
[4] => E:\
[5] => F:\
[6] => G:\
[7] => H:\
[8] => I:\
[9] => M:\
[10] => X:\
[11] => Z:\
)
Warning: This also finds empty disk drives (eg; CD or SMD drives or the more common floppy drive).
Warning2: If you want to find space usage using the info from my function, prepend the disk function with the "@", eg:
$free=@disk_free_space('A:\\');

Beware of empty files!
<?php
// Wrong
$exp = floor(log($bytes) / log(1024));
//Correct
$exp = $bytes ? floor(log($bytes) / log(1024)) : 0;

For a non-looping way to add symbols to a number of bytes:
<?php
function getSymbolByQuantity($bytes) {
$symbols = array('B', 'KiB', 'MiB', 'GiB', 'TiB', 'PiB', 'EiB', 'ZiB', 'YiB');
$exp = floor(log($bytes)/log(1024));
return sprintf('%.2f '.$symbol[$exp], ($bytes/pow(1024, floor($exp))));

while (($size/1024)>1) {
$size=$size/1024;
$i++;}
return(round($size,1)." ".$iec[$i]);}

Very simple function that convert bytes to kilobytes, megabytes ...
function ConvertBytes($number)
{
$len = strlen($number);
if($len < 4)
{
return sprintf("%d b", $number);
}
if($len >= 4 && $len <=6)
{
return sprintf("%0.2f Kb", $number/1024);
}
if($len >= 7 && $len <=9)
{
return sprintf("%0.2f Mb", $number/1024/1024);
}
return sprintf("%0.2f Gb", $number/1024/1024/1024);
}

JulieC:
I think you may have misunderstood - given a directory, this function tells you how big the disk paritition is that the directory exists on.
So disk_total_space("C:\Windows\") will tell you how big drive C is.
It is not suggesting that a directory is a disk partition.

"filesystem or disk partition" does not equal "directory" for Windows. Thanks.

This works for me (on a UNIX server):
<?php
function du( $dir )
{
$res = `du -sk $dir`; // Unix command
preg_match( '/\d+/', $res, $KB ); // Parse result
$MB = round( $KB[0] / 1024, 1 ); // From kilobytes to megabytes
return $MB;
}
$dirSize = du('/path/to/dir/');
?>

My first contribution. Trouble is the sum of the byte sizes of the files in your directories is not equal to the amount of disk space consumed, as andudi points out. A 1-byte file occupies 4096 bytes of disk space if the block size is 4096. Couldn't understand why andudi did $s["blksize"]*$s["blocks"]/8. Could only be because $s["blocks"] counts the number of 512-byte disk blocks not the number of $s["blksize"] blocks, so it may as well just be $s["blocks"]*512. Furthermore none of the dirspace suggestions allow for the fact that directories are also files and that they also consume disk space. The following code dskspace addresses all these issues and can also be used to return the disk space consumed by a single non-directory file. It will return much larger numbers than you would have been seeing with any of the other suggestions but I think they are much more realistic:
<?php
function dskspace($dir)
{
$s = stat($dir);
$space = $s["blocks"]*512;
if (is_dir($dir))
{
$dh = opendir($dir);
while (($file = readdir($dh)) !== false)
if ($file != "." and $file != "..")
$space += dskspace($dir."/".$file);
closedir($dh);
}
return $space;
}
?>

To find the total size of a file/directory you have to differ two situations:
(on Linux/Unix based systems only!?)
you are interested:
1) in the total size of the files in the dir/subdirs
2) what place on the disk your dir/subdirs/files uses
- 1) and 2) normaly differs, depending on the size of the inodes
- mostly 2) is greater than 1) (in the order of any kB)
- filesize($file) gives 1)
- "du -ab $file" gives 2)
so you have to choose your situation!
on my server I have no rights to use "exec du" in the case of 2), so I use:
$s = stat($file);
$size = $s[11]*$s[12]/8);
whitch is counting the inodes [12] times the size of them in Bits [11]
hopes this helps to count the used disk place in a right way... :-)
