python-dirusage

Show disk usage for sub-dirs of a folder, with control over depth recursion and minimum size to display.

Adapted from Doug Dahms' tree.py

Like du --max-depth=1, dirusage lists the size of sub-dirs in the given directory. Additional parameters allow the recursion to go deeper, displayed as a tree, and also to only display folders bigger than a given size. Folders are automatically sorted by size.

Summary

usage: dirusage [-h] [-d MAX_DEPTH] [-s MIN_SIZE] [-c] [-v] path

positional arguments:
    path                  root folder to calculate the tree for

optional arguments:
    -h, --help            show this help message and exit
    -d MAX_DEPTH, --max-depth MAX_DEPTH
                          maximum recursion depth to draw the tree to (default
                          is 1, immediate sub-dirs only)
    -s MIN_SIZE, --min-size MIN_SIZE
                          minimum folder size (MB) to draw branches for
    -c, --colorize        colorize the output
    -v, --version         show program's version number and exit
