Project description

humanbytes

humanbytes is a simple Python package to convert bytes into human-readable sizes using either decimal (KB, MB, ...) or binary (KiB, MiB, ...) units.

Features

  • Convert bytes to a human-readable string
  • Supports both decimal (powers of 1000) and binary (powers of 1024) units
  • Minimal, dependency-free, and easy to use

Installation

pip install humanbytes

Usage

from humanbytes import human_size

print(human_size(1536))                # 1.54 KB
print(human_size(1536, binary=True))   # 1.50 KiB
print(human_size(10**9))               # 1.00 GB
print(human_size(2**30, binary=True))  # 1.00 GiB

Parameters

  • num: The number to convert (e.g., bytes)
  • binary: If True, use binary units (KiB, MiB, ...). If False (default), use decimal units (KB, MB, ...)
