diskspaced
This is a Python based CLI utility to find what is taking space on your disk. It's originally designed to export into a format that GrandPerspective can render, but the exports can be XML (for GrandPerspective) or JSON.
Simply install via pip (or package management tool of your choice), then run:
diskspaced --folder-path / --output-path output.xml --format grandperspective
This will run through your disk and write out the results. Running with sudo gives the most accurate results.
Note: Windows is not supported by this tool.
Required options
--folder-path- The root folder to start off with. Usually set to/--output-path- The file to write the output to.--format- The output file format. Currently JSON or GrandPerspective. (jsonandgrandperspectiverespectively)
Other options
--pretty-print- Set this to pretty print the output (if supported by the format) - Note that this is a post processing step rather than an inline step.--print-after-n-files N- Printing every file processed would make the entire process take several orders of magnitude longer. Instead, if you'd like to see output, you can set this flag, and give a valueNand it will print everyNth file.--alphabetical- This ensures that the output order is alphabetical (i.e. stable). This is only really useful if you plan on diffing outputs.
