Note Submitter: cory at lavacube dot com ---- For Linux/Unix users: A simple recursive way to get the total of a directory using the "du" command: <?php function du( $dir='./' ) { // apply ending slash -- probably not necessary $dir = (substr($dir, 0, -1)!='/'?$dir.'/':$dir); // ensure path is a directory if( !is_dir($dir) ) { return 0; } // build command $cmd = 'du -c "' .$dir. '" |grep total'; // run command $dirsize = str_replace('total', null, cmd($cmd)); // output result return trim($dirsize); } ?> This could more than likely be cleaned up, but it works. :-)
