File size distribution

From Rosetta Code
Revision as of 15:31, 2 February 2018 by PureFox (talk | contribs) (Added Kotlin)
File size distribution is a draft programming task. It is not yet considered ready to be promoted as a complete task, for reasons that should be found in its talk page.

File Size Distribution

Beginning from the current directory, or optionally from a directory specified as a command-line argument, determine how many files there are of various sizes in a directory hierarchy. My suggestion is to sort by logarithmn of file size, since a few bytes here or there, or even a factor of two or three, may not be that significant. Don't forget that empty files may exist, to serve as a marker. Is your file system predominantly devoted to a large number of smaller files, or a smaller number of huge files?

C

The platform independent way to get the file size in C involves opening every file and reading the size. The implementation below works for Windows and utilizes command scripts to get size information quickly even for a large number of files, recursively traversing a large number of directories. Both textual and graphical ( ASCII ) outputs are shown. The same can be done for Linux by a combination of the find, ls and stat commands and my plan was to make it work on both OS types, but I don't have access to a Linux system right now. This would also mean either abandoning scaling the graphical output in order to fit the console buffer or porting that as well, thus including windows.h selectively.

Windows

<lang C> /*Abhishek Ghosh, 13th October 2017*/

  1. include<windows.h>
  2. include<string.h>
  3. include<stdio.h>
  1. define MAXORDER 25

int main(int argC, char* argV[]) { char str[MAXORDER],commandString[1000],*startPath; long int* fileSizeLog = (long int*)calloc(sizeof(long int),MAXORDER),max; int i,j,len; double scale; FILE* fp;

if(argC==1) printf("Usage : %s <followed by directory to start search from(. for current dir), followed by \n optional parameters (T or G) to show text or graph output>",argV[0]); else{ if(strchr(argV[1],' ')!=NULL){ len = strlen(argV[1]); startPath = (char*)malloc((len+2)*sizeof(char)); startPath[0] = '\"'; startPath[len+1]='\"'; strncpy(startPath+1,argV[1],len); startPath[len+2] = argV[1][len]; sprintf(commandString,"forfiles /p %s /s /c \"cmd /c echo @fsize\" 2>&1",startPath); }

else if(strlen(argV[1])==1 && argV[1][0]=='.') strcpy(commandString,"forfiles /s /c \"cmd /c echo @fsize\" 2>&1");

else sprintf(commandString,"forfiles /p %s /s /c \"cmd /c echo @fsize\" 2>&1",argV[1]);

fp = popen(commandString,"r");

while(fgets(str,100,fp)!=NULL){ if(str[0]=='0') fileSizeLog[0]++; else fileSizeLog[strlen(str)]++; }

if(argC==2 || (argC==3 && (argV[2][0]=='t'||argV[2][0]=='T'))){ for(i=0;i<MAXORDER;i++){ printf("\nSize Order < 10^%2d bytes : %Ld",i,fileSizeLog[i]); } }

max = fileSizeLog[0];

for(i=1;i<MAXORDER;i++) (fileSizeLog[i]>max)?max=fileSizeLog[i]:max;

(max < csbi.dwSize.X)?(scale=1):(scale=(1.0*(csbi.dwSize.X-50))/max);

for(i=0;i<MAXORDER;i++){ printf("\nSize Order < 10^%2d bytes |",i); for(j=0;j<(int)(scale*fileSizeLog[i]);j++) printf("%c",219); printf("%Ld",fileSizeLog[i]); } }

} return 0; } } </lang> Invocation and textual output :

Note that it is possible to track files up to 10^24 (Yottabyte) in size with this implementation, but if you have a file that large, you shouldn't be needing such programs. :)

By default, process the current and all readable sub-directories, or, pass in a directory path at the command line.

           @dirs.push: $path if $path.d and $path.r

Python

The distribution is stored in a collections.Counter object (like a dictionary with automatic 0 value when a key is not found, useful when incrementing). Anything could be done with this object, here the number of files is printed for increasing sizes. No check is made during the directory walk: usually, safeguards would be needed or the program will fail on any unreadable file or directory (depending on rights, or too deep paths, for instance). Here links are skipped, so it should avoid cycles.

<lang python>import sys, os from collections import Counter

def dodir(path):

   global h
   for name in os.listdir(path):
       p = os.path.join(path, name)
       if os.path.islink(p):
           pass
       elif os.path.isfile(p):
           h[os.stat(p).st_size] += 1
       elif os.path.isdir(p):
           dodir(p)
       else:
           pass

def main(arg):

   global h
   h = Counter()
   for dir in arg:
       dodir(dir)
   
   s = n = 0
   for k, v in sorted(h.items()):
       print("Size %d -> %d file(s)" % (k, v))
       n += v
       s += k * v
   print("Total %d bytes for %d files" % (s, n))
