Using ls to list directories and their total sizes

2018-06-27 22:50:53

Is it possible to use ls in Unix to list the total size of a sub-directory and all its contents as opposed to the usual 4K that (I assume) is just the directory file itself? IE

total 12K
drwxrwxr-x  6 *** *** 4.0K 2009-06-19 10:10 branches
drwxrwxr-x 13 *** *** 4.0K 2009-06-19 10:52 tags
drwxrwxr-x 16 *** *** 4.0K 2009-06-19 10:02 trunk

After scouring the man pages I'm coming up empty.

Try something like:

du -sh *

short version of:

du --summary --human-readable *

Explanation:

du : D isk U sage

-s : Display a summary for each specified file. (Equivalent to -d 0 )

-h : "Human-readable" output. Use unit suffixes: B yte, K ibibyte (KiB), M ebibyte (MiB), G ibibyte (GiB), T ebibyte (TiB) and P ebibyte (PiB). (BASE2)

du -sk * | sort -n du -sk * | sort -n will sort the folders by size. Helpful when looking to clear space..

du -sh * | sort -h

这将以人类可读格式显示。
