Digg filesize
Gets file size
(PHP 4, PHP 5)
Return Values
Returns the size of the file in bytes, or
Note:
Because PHP's integer type is signed and many platforms use 32bit integers,
filesize() may return unexpected results for files which
are larger than 2GB. For files between 2GB and 4GB in size this can usually
be overcome by using ExamplesExample 636. filesize() example<?phpNotes
Note:
The results of this function are cached. See clearstatcache() for more details.
Tip:
As of PHP 5.0.0 this function can also be used with some URL wrappers. Refer to Appendix O, List of Supported Protocols/Wrappers for a listing of which wrappers support stat() family of functionality.

When read/writing binary files you often cannot rely on the feof() function being of much use, since it doesn't get triggered if the pointer is at the eof but hasn't tried to read one more byte. In this case you instead need to check if the file pointer is at filesize yet, but if you don't have the filename handy, you need to pluck it out fstat all the time. Two simple functions that would be nice to have natively in PHP: <?php function fpfilesize(&$fp) { $stat = fstat($fp); return $stat["size"]; } function fpeof(&$fp) { return ftell($fp)==fpfilesize($fp); } ?> trask768
Updated function to return human readable file size: function size_readable ($size, $retstring = null) { // adapted from code at http://aidanlister.com/repos/v/function.size_readable.php $sizes = array('B', 'kB', 'MB', 'GB', 'TB', 'PB', 'EB', 'ZB', 'YB'); if ($retstring === null) { $retstring = '%01.2f %s'; } $lastsizestring = end($sizes); foreach ($sizes as $sizestring) { if ($size < 1024) { break; } if ($sizestring != $lastsizestring) { $size /= 1024; } } if ($sizestring == $sizes[0]) { $retstring = '%01d %s'; } // Bytes aren't normally fractional return sprintf($retstring, $size, $sizestring); } rico
To get the size of files above 2GB you can use the linux-command filesize like this: <?php function real_filesize_linux($file) { @exec("filesize $file",$out,$ret); if ( $ret <> '0' ) return FALSE; else return($out[0]); } ?> emailfire
Though probably slower, strlen(file_get_contents("file.txt")) might give the same results.

this is "raw" version of remote_filesize() function. according to RFC, HTTP servers MUST implement at least GET, POST and HEAD requests, so the function just opens TCP socket connection, sends HEAD request and receives response, parsing length of the resource. [$ipAddress] is the ip address of remote server. [$url] is the name of file which size you want to determine. the code was tested under Apache 2.0.43 and IIS 6.0 and it works correctly in both cases. i wish the code can save someone's time :) example: $ipa = gethostbyname( "www.someserver.com" ); $url = "/docs/somedocument.pdf"; $fsize = remote_filesize2( $ipa, $url ); ========================== <?php function ReadHeader( $socket ) { $i=0; $header = ""; while( true && $i<20 ) { // counter [$i] is used here to avoid deadlock while reading header string // it's limited by [20] here cause i really haven't ever met headers with string counter greater than 20 // * $s = fgets( $socket, 4096 ); $header .= $s; if( strcmp( $s, "\r\n" ) == 0 || strcmp( $s, "\n" ) == 0 ) break; $i++; } if( $i >= 20 ) { // suspicious header strings count was read // * return false; } return $header; } function remote_filesize2( $ipAddress, $url ) { $socket = fsockopen( $ipAddress, 80 ); if( !$socket ) { // failed to open TCP socket connection // do something sensible here besides exit(); // ... exit(); } // just send HEAD request to server // * fwrite( $socket, "HEAD $url HTTP/1.0\r\nConnection: Close\r\n\r\n" ); // read the response header // * $header = ReadHeader( $socket ); if( !$header ) { Header( "HTTP/1.1 404 Not Found" ); exit(); } // try to acquire Content-Length within the response // * $regex = '/Content-Length:\s([0-9].+?)\s/'; $count = preg_match($regex, $header, $matches); // if there was a Content-Length field, its value // will now be in $matches[1] if( isset( $matches[1] ) ) { $size = $matches[1]; } else { $size = 0; } fclose( $socket ); return $size; } ?> aidan
This function uses a stack array to get the size of a directory. http://aidanlister.com/repos/v/function.dirsize.php You can convert this to a human readable size using: http://aidanlister.com/repos/v/function.size_readable.php For a faster (unix only) implementation, see function.disk-total-space, note #34100 http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.disk-total-space.php#34100 Also of interest is this wikipedia article, discussing the difference between a kilobyte (1000) and a kibibyte (1024). http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bytes wielkiegie
There is a lot of functions for size of dir. But drive operations are slow, so if you want use those functions many times in one script, it's too slow. You can use this small function instead: <?php function dirsize($dir,$buf=2) { static $buffer; if(isset($buffer[$dir])) return $buffer[$dir]; if(is_file($dir)) return filesize($dir); if($dh=opendir($dir)) { $size=0; while(($file=readdir($dh))!==false) { if($file=='.' || $file=='..') continue; $size+=dirsize($dir.'/'.$file,$buf-1); } closedir($dh); if($buf>0) $buffer[$dir]=$size; return $size; } return false; } ?> What does it do? It save size in static array to cache result. You can choose deep value (e.q. if you want cache only first dir, use dirsize($dirname,1);). radon8472
The last line shuold be: file<4GB = SIGNED: -100662784 UNSIGNED: 4194304512 files greater than 4 GB an smaller than 6 will be positive again, but 4 GB to small ^^ ming
the "remote file size" snippet below is cool but only works in php5 since get_headers() is not supported in php4.

That works for a folder size, but perhaps you should check this: http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.disk-total-space.php core58
some notes and modifications to previous post. refering to RFC, when using HTTP/1.1 your request (either GET or POST or HEAD) must contain Host header string, opposite to HTTP/1.1 where Host ain't required. but there's no sure how your remote server would treat the request so you can add Host anyway (it won't be an error for HTTP/1.0). host value _must_ be a host name (not CNAME and not IP address). this function catches response, containing Location header and recursively sends HEAD request to host where we are moved until final response is met. (you can experience such redirections often when downloading something from php scripts or some hash links that use apache mod_rewrite. most all of dowloading masters handle 302 redirects correctly, so this code does it too (running recursively thru 302 redirections).) [$counter302] specify how much times your allow this function to jump if redirections are met. If initial limit (5 is default) expired -- it returns 0 (should be modified for your purposes whatever).0 ReadHeader() function is listed in previous post (param description is placed there too). <?php function remote_filesize_thru( $ipAddress, $url, $counter302 = 5 ) { $socket = fsockopen( "10.233.225.2", 8080 ); if( !$socket ) { // failed to open TCP socket connection // do something sensible here besides exit(); echo " failed to open socket for [$ipAddress]"; exit(); } // just send HEAD request to server $head = "HEAD $url HTTP/1.0\r\nConnection: Close\r\n\r\n"; // you may use HTTP/1.1 instead, then your request head string _must_ contain "Host: " header fwrite( $socket, $head ); // read the response header $header = ReadHeader( $socket ); if( !$header ) { // handle empty response here the way you need... Header( "HTTP/1.1 404 Not Found" ); exit(); } fclose( $socket ); // check for "Location" header $locationMarker = "Location: "; $pos = strpos( $header, $locationMarker ); if( $pos > 0 ) { $counter302--; if( $counter302 < 0 ) { // redirect limit (5 by default) expired -- return some warning or do something sensible here echo "warning: too long redirection sequence"; return 0; } // Location is present -- we should determine target host and move there, like any downloading masters do... // no need to use regex here $end = strpos( $header, "\n", $pos ); $location = trim( substr( $header, $pos + strlen( $locationMarker ), $end - $pos - strlen( $locationMarker ) ), "\\r\\n" ); // extract pure host (without "http://") $host = explode( "/", $location ); $ipa = gethostbyname( $host[2] ); // move to Location return remote_filesize_thru( $ipa, $location, $counter302 ); } // try to acquire Content-Length within the response $regex = '/Content-Length:\s([0-9].+?)\s/'; $count = preg_match($regex, $header, $matches); // if there was a Content-Length field, its value // will now be in $matches[1] if( isset( $matches[1] ) ) $size = $matches[1]; else $size = 0; return $size; } robkohrphp
Simplified recursive size measurement. Will also take into account the size of the folders themselves. function get_size($path) { if(!is_dir($path)) return filesize($path); if ($handle = opendir($path)) { $size = 0; while (false !== ($file = readdir($handle))) { if($file!='.' && $file!='..'){ $size += filesize($path.'/'.$file); $size += get_size($path.'/'.$file); } } closedir($handle); return $size; } } plyyyy
simple addition to function remotefsize by Josh Finlay(http part): (sometimes servers send headers in lower case) if (($sch == "http") || ($sch == "https")) { $headers = array_change_key_case(get_headers($url, 1),CASE_LOWER); if ((!array_key_exists("content-length", $headers))) { return false; } return $headers["content-length"]; } mateusz
Recursive function, which returns size of folder or file. <?php function get_size($path) { if(!is_dir($path))return filesize($path); $dir = opendir($path); while($file = readdir($dir)) { if(is_file($path."/".$file))$size+=filesize($path."/".$file); if(is_dir($path."/".$file) && $file!="." && $file !="..")$size +=get_size($path."/".$file); } return $size; } ?> webmaster
On 64-bit platforms, this seems quite reliable for getting the filesize of files > 4GB $a = fopen($filename, 'r'); fseek($a, 0, SEEK_END); $filesize = ftell($a); fclose($a); ibitgsm
Note that functions written in PHP which get directory size recursively are much slower than just calling `du`. I hope this short code snipet will help someone:) <?php function dirsize($path) { $old_path = getcwd(); if(!is_dir($old_path."/".$path)) return -1; $size = trim(shell_exec("cd \"".$old_path."/".$path."\"; du -sb; cd \"".$old_path."\";"), "\x00..\x2F\x3A..\xFF"); return $size; } P.S. trim() remove here all nonprintable an non-digit chars which appear in the output of `du` ?> stirol
Just to notice: open_basedir is in effect on this function ;)

In addition to the handy function Kris posted, here is an upgraded version that does basic http authentication as well. <?php /* * (mixed)remote_filesize($uri,$user='',$pw='') * returns the size of a remote stream in bytes or * the string 'unknown'. Also takes user and pw * incase the site requires authentication to access * the uri */ function remote_filesize($uri,$user='',$pw='') { // start output buffering ob_start(); // initialize curl with given uri $ch = curl_init($uri); // make sure we get the header curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_HEADER, 1); // make it a http HEAD request curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_NOBODY, 1); // if auth is needed, do it here if (!empty($user) && !empty($pw)) { $headers = array('Authorization: Basic ' . base64_encode($user.':'.$pw)); curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER, $headers); } $okay = curl_exec($ch); curl_close($ch); // get the output buffer $head = ob_get_contents(); // clean the output buffer and return to previous // buffer settings ob_end_clean(); // gets you the numeric value from the Content-Length // field in the http header $regex = '/Content-Length:\s([0-9].+?)\s/'; $count = preg_match($regex, $head, $matches); // if there was a Content-Length field, its value // will now be in $matches[1] if (isset($matches[1])) { $size = $matches[1]; } else { $size = 'unknown'; } return $size; } ?> kaspernj
If you want to get the actual filesize for a size above 2 gb in Windows, you can use the COM-extensions in PHP. An example is as follows: <? function knj_filesize($file){ if (file_exists($file)){ $fsobj = new COM("Scripting.FileSystemObject"); $file = $fsobj->GetFile($file); $var = ($file->Size) + 1 - 1; return $var; }else{ echo "File does not exist.\n"; return false; } } ?> This will return the corrent filesize. And it is very useful with PHP-GTK applications, where you want to use the filesize for larger files. This example also works for files over a Windows-network. Try this example with the function: <? echo knj_filesize("//mycomputer/music/Track1.mp3"); ?> Happy hacking :) will
If you are trying to find a way to get the filesize for files over 2GB, you can always use exec() and run a system command to return the value. The following works on my linux box: $sizeInBytes = filesize($path); if (!$sizeInBytes) { $command = "ls -l \"$path\" | cut -d \" \" -f 6"; $sizeInBytes = exec($command); } josh finlay
I know there has been alot of remote filesize snippets posted, but I'll post mine also. It supports HTTP/HTTPS/FTP/FTPS and detects which type it should use. It needs --enable-ftp for the FTP/FTPS functions. I hope this works for someone. <?php function remotefsize($url) { $sch = parse_url($url, PHP_URL_SCHEME); if (($sch != "http") && ($sch != "https") && ($sch != "ftp") && ($sch != "ftps")) { return false; } if (($sch == "http") || ($sch == "https")) { $headers = get_headers($url, 1); if ((!array_key_exists("Content-Length", $headers))) { return false; } return $headers["Content-Length"]; } if (($sch == "ftp") || ($sch == "ftps")) { $server = parse_url($url, PHP_URL_HOST); $port = parse_url($url, PHP_URL_PORT); $path = parse_url($url, PHP_URL_PATH); $user = parse_url($url, PHP_URL_USER); $pass = parse_url($url, PHP_URL_PASS); if ((!$server) || (!$path)) { return false; } if (!$port) { $port = 21; } if (!$user) { $user = "anonymous"; } if (!$pass) { $pass = "phpos@"; } switch ($sch) { case "ftp": $ftpid = ftp_connect($server, $port); break; case "ftps": $ftpid = ftp_ssl_connect($server, $port); break; } if (!$ftpid) { return false; } $login = ftp_login($ftpid, $user, $pass); if (!$login) { return false; } $ftpsize = ftp_size($ftpid, $path); ftp_close($ftpid); if ($ftpsize == -1) { return false; } return $ftpsize; } } ?> michael mh
I just noticed, that filesize(), filemtime() etc. only work correctly on Mac OS X if the file's directory is executable for the PHP process. Otherwise it will report "stat failed for <filepathandname>".

I created another dirsize() function which doesn't use recursion. I gained a ~2-3% performance boost while it uses ~50% lesser memory! <?php function dirsize($dirname) { if (!is_dir($dirname) || !is_readable($dirname)) { return false; } $dirname_stack[] = $dirname; $size = 0; do { $dirname = array_shift($dirname_stack); $handle = opendir($dirname); while (false !== ($file = readdir($handle))) { if ($file != '.' && $file != '..' && is_readable($dirname . DIRECTORY_SEPARATOR . $file)) { if (is_dir($dirname . DIRECTORY_SEPARATOR . $file)) { $dirname_stack[] = $dirname . DIRECTORY_SEPARATOR . $file; } $size += filesize($dirname . DIRECTORY_SEPARATOR . $file); } } closedir($handle); } while (count($dirname_stack) > 0); return $size; } ?> hkpark99
How to get folder size? Here is an answer. =========================================== function foldersize($path) { $total_size = 0; $files = scandir($path); foreach($files as $t) { if (is_dir($t)) { // In case of folder if ($t<>"." && $t<>"..") { // Exclude self and parent folder $size = foldersize($path . "/" . $t); // print("Dir - $path/$t = $size \n"); $total_size += $size; } } else { // In case of file $size = filesize($path . "/" . $t); // print("File - $path/$t = $size \n"); $total_size += $size; } } return $total_size; } robin leffmann
Here's a dodgy little snippet I made to find out how much disk space (in 1K-blocks) any chosen node - file or directory - occupies in the file system.. function nodesize( $node ) { if( !is_readable($node) ) return false; $blah = exec( "/usr/bin/du -sk $node" ); return substr( $blah, 0, strpos($blah, 9) ); } The character I search for with strpos() is a tab, as this is what 'du' on OpenBSD uses to separate size and node in the output - this might be whitespaces in other *nixes/distributions. bizarredotbg
Here is a simple addition to the original example that i have made. First of all i must mention that i need to list all files in a dir and i do know all files names. Because the filenames contains an INT at the same place in every file's name i use $n++ to generate the file names. The code: <?php // outputs e.g. bits_01.jpg: 0.05 kb //lets asign a value of 1 so we can start with file bits_01.jpg $n = 1; //the last file is bits_09.jpg so i call the WHILE until $n gets a value of 9 while ($n < 10) { //using $n in each file's name $filename = 'bits_0'.$n.'.jpg'; //getting the file size - from original example $size = filesize($filename); //while i don't wan't the result in bytes instead i divide by 1024 to print it out in kilo bytes (if you need it in MB then divide it by 1048576 //at the same line we round the result to the fourth sign after the comma $sizemb = round(($size/1024),4); //printing the result //filename : size MB and brake to print next on the next line echo $filename . ': ' . $sizemb . ' kb<br />'; //now after i've printed the first file and it's size, we proceed to the next one $n++; } ?> Hope it is useful to someone. P.S Please excuse my bad English :-) jiquera
here a piece of code to format a filesize: <?php function formatbytes($val, $digits = 3, $mode = "SI", $bB = "B"){ //$mode == "SI"|"IEC", $bB == "b"|"B" $si = array("", "k", "M", "G", "T", "P", "E", "Z", "Y"); $iec = array("", "Ki", "Mi", "Gi", "Ti", "Pi", "Ei", "Zi", "Yi"); switch(strtoupper($mode)) { case "SI" : $factor = 1000; $symbols = $si; break; case "IEC" : $factor = 1024; $symbols = $iec; break; default : $factor = 1000; $symbols = $si; break; } switch($bB) { case "b" : $val *= 8; break; default : $bB = "B"; break; } for($i=0;$i<count($symbols)-1 && $val>=$factor;$i++) $val /= $factor; $p = strpos($val, "."); if($p !== false && $p > $digits) $val = round($val); elseif($p !== false) $val = round($val, $digits-$p); return round($val, $digits) . " " . $symbols[$i] . $bB; } //some test cases: function test($i, $digits = 3, $mode = "SI", $bB = "B"){ echo $i . " = " . formatbytes($i, $digits, $mode, $bB) . " \n"; } test(1024); test(1024*1024); test(1024*1024, 4); test(1024*1024, 3, "IEC"); test(1024, 3, "SI", "b"); test(32423); test(323); test(128, "3", "IEC", "b"); test(324235236362453); test(32423535424236324362453, 3, "IEC"); //actual use: echo formatbytes(file_size("myfile.php")); ?> it formats to bit or bytes according to SI or IEC and rounded to a given number of digits. magicaltux
filesize() acts differently between platforms and distributions. I tried manually compiling PHP on a 32bit platform. Filesize() would fail on files >2G. Then I compiled again, adding CFLAGS=`getconf LFS_CFLAGS` in front of configure. Then filesize() would success, but the result would be converted to a 32bit signed integer... However on 64bit systems, PHP's integers are 64bit signed, and this would work just well... So now the question is : should linux distributions (Debian, etc) define LFS_CFLAGS or not ? Doing so makes PHP be able to open/seek such files, but makes its behaviour buggy (stat() is supposed to fail if file size is >32bit and appl does not support such integers)... fabio
core58 at mail dot ru, it did save me time! One note though. I had to add the Host: header in order to get it working. The value should be the host name (DNS, not IP). md2perpe
Another way to get a filesize > 2GB on Linux: <?php $size = trim(`stat -c%s $file_path`); ?> raphael kirchner
Addition to my earlier post: I searched around and found the background in the notes for disk_total_space(): http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.disk-total-space.php To give a short summary here - andudi pointed out that a) the SIZE of a file and b) the SPACE on disk it uses aren't equal and shalless provided a function dskspace() which returns exactly (tested!) what "du" would. coolmax1
@l0co at wp dot pl: fopen with w+: Open for reading and writing; place the file pointer at the beginning of the file and truncate the file to zero length. If the file does not exist, attempt to create it. in the second case, it will be: <?php $f = fopen($filename, 'w+'); // Now file specified in the $filename will be zero byte length echo filesize($filename); //now filesize return zero fclose($f); ?> Did you mean that or something other? randy tayler
