sumall

A fast, zero-dependency CLI that sums a column of numbers and reports the total in MB / KB / bytes.

Built for the everyday "add up these sizes" moment: paste from a spreadsheet, pipe du -sh output, or pass numbers as arguments. The per-line breakdown shows exactly which values were included, so the total is verifiable at a glance.

Features

• Three input sources, first match wins: command-line arguments, piped stdin, the system clipboard (bare invocation)
• du / ls -lh style suffixes: 768K, 1.9M, 2G, 15Gi — mixed units are normalized to bytes before summing
• ls -l long-format lines: the size field is parsed as bytes (ls -lh suffixes honored); directory lines are skipped since their "size" is just the inode
• Table pastes: markdown tables and spreadsheet TSV (Excel / Feishu clipboard) — the number can sit in any column; when a row holds several numbers, unit-marked cells win, then the last column (--column N pins one)
• Trailing labels tolerated: 177K background.png parses as 177 KB; the label rides along in the breakdown
• Configurable default unit for bare numbers (MB by default, override with --unit)
• Per-line breakdown plus totals in MB / KB / bytes
• Pure Python 3.10+ stdlib — no runtime dependencies, starts in ~60 ms

[!NOTE] Units follow the binary (MiB) convention — 1 MB = 1024 KB = 1,048,576 bytes — matching du -h / df -h output.

Usage

From arguments

Arguments are strict: every token must be a number (optionally with a suffix). A typo fails loudly instead of being silently skipped. Tokens may contain spaces or newlines, so pasting a whole column as one quoted argument works too.

$ ./main.py 10 37 6 1.46
来源：参数
输入：4 个数值，单位 MB

逐行明细：
   1) 10     2) 37     3) 6      4) 1.46

合计：
  54.46 MB
  55767.04 KB
  57105449 bytes

From the clipboard

Copy the numbers, then run bare — no arguments needed. Linux (X11 via xclip/xsel, Wayland via wl-paste) and macOS (pbpaste) are supported; the first tool found wins.

Clipboard (and stdin) parsing is line-based and lenient: each line is split into cells (tabs, then markdown pipes, then whitespace) and the value is located among them; lines with no number — headers, separators, prose, directories, summary rows — are skipped and counted in the header.

From stdin

$ du -sh img/* | ./main.py
来源：stdin
输入：4 个数值，单位 mixed

逐行明细：
  13M app.bin       =  13.0000 MB
  1.9M audio.bin    =  1.9000 MB
  768K ota.bin      =  0.7500 MB
  1.7M sensor.bin   =  1.7000 MB

合计：
  17.35 MB
  17766.40 KB
  18192794 bytes

From an ls -l paste

ls -l puts the size in field 5, not at the start of the line — a paste is recognized as long-format lines and the size field is taken as bytes (ls -lh suffixes like 12K are honored). Directory lines and the total summary are skipped:

$ ls -l | ./main.py
来源：stdin
输入：4 个数值，单位 mixed（3 行已跳过）

逐行明细：
  11358B LICENSE        =  0.0108 MB
  499B main.py*         =  0.0005 MB
  1666B pyproject.toml  =  0.0016 MB
  3588B README.md       =  0.0034 MB

合计：
  0.02 MB
  16.71 KB
  17111 bytes

From a table paste

Markdown tables and spreadsheet clipboard (Excel / Feishu copy = TSV) put the number after the name, in any column — both work. When a row holds several numbers (size and used, or a df -h row), cells carrying a unit marker win over bare ones, and otherwise the last column is taken; a yellow note is printed whenever that heuristic fired, so a wrong pick is visible:

$ ./main.py -c 2 < partitions.md
来源：stdin
输入：3 个数值，单位 mixed（2 行已跳过）

逐行明细：
  13M app.bin      =  13.0000 MB
  1.9M audio.bin   =  1.9000 MB
  768K ota.bin     =  0.7500 MB

合计：
  15.65 MB
  16025.60 KB
  16410214 bytes

-c N takes the Nth table column (counting all columns, not just numeric ones) instead of the heuristic; footer rows starting with total / 总计 / 合计 are always skipped so totals never count twice.

Units

Use --unit B|KB|MB|GB to change what a bare number means, e.g. ./main.py --unit KB 768 128 sums to 896 KB.

Installation

No install is needed — run straight from a checkout:

$ ./main.py 10 37 1.46

Or install it as a sumall command on your PATH:

$ pip install -e .
$ sumall 10 37 1.46

Development

$ pip install -e ".[dev]"   # pytest + ruff
$ pytest                    # runs against src/ via pythonpath — no build step
$ ruff check src tests main.py
$ ruff format --check src tests main.py

CI (.github/workflows/ci.yml) lints and tests across Python 3.10–3.12 and additionally builds the wheel, installs it clean, and reruns the suite against the installed package.
