Getting file sizes

[graham23s]

Hi Guys,

what im trying to do here is calculate file sizes in an .xml file for example this is the bit i need to calculate:

using a preg_match_all i can count the number of 'bytes=' but is there a way i can extract the value of bytes, then i can times it by the number of preg_match_all results or is there a better way?

thanks guys

Best way to do it is to avoid the entire xml integration, and just use the $_FILES array. This also will give you a more accurate value as file sizes may vary, and youre not just taking an average and multiplying it.

*Hope I understood the question

eg.

for($x=0; $x<$totalFiles; $x++){
// place switch statement or increment value, to pull all file names here
// e.g. $filename = 'FOLDERNAME/image0'.$x.'.jpg';
$singlefilesize = $_FILES[$filename]["size"] / 1024);
$allfilesizes = $allfilesizes + $singlefilesize;
}
echo 'All files in folder come to '.$allfilesizes.' kb';
// to get total bytes, take /1024 off
// google the $_FILES function for a detailed instruction


Also, if your data is stored / referenced on a database, just reference it in the following way:


while($row = mysql_fetch_array($datasource)){
$filename = $row['filename'];
$singlefilesize = $_FILES[$filename]["size"] / 1024);
$allfilesizes = $allfilesizes + $singlefilesize;
}


This will also alow for very easy file upload integration, if it is ever needed.

Hope this helps

Hi Mate,

it's actually the data inside the xml im trying to get the value of (i should have put a better heading lol)

Graham

[Mwnciau]

preg_match_all('#bytes="\d{1,6}"#i', $xml, $out);
$bytes = (sizeof($out[0])-1) * 259072 + $out[0][sizeof($out[0])];

That will count how many times bytes="1-6 numbers" and work out the bytes form there.

[graham23s]

Hi,

the only things is , all files will be different when uploaded "259072" is just the number in this example could i replace that with a variable at all?

cheers

Graham

[Mwnciau]

$bytes = 259072;
preg_match_all('#bytes="\d{1,6}"#i', $xml, $out);
$bytes = (sizeof($out[0])-1) * $bytes + $out[0][sizeof($out[0])];

Just change the bytes variable

[CFMaBiSmAd]

Generic code using Mwnciau's preg_match_all (Note: The file size could be more than 6 digits, so I adjusted the maximum to 15) that will add up any size files (tested on the .xml in the first post) -
preg_match_all('#bytes="\d{1,15}"#i', $xml, $out); // use previously posted preg_match_all

$search = array('bytes=','"'); // array of things to search for

$sizes = str_replace($search, "", $out[0]); // strip off any things in the $search array

$sum = array_sum($sizes); // get the sum
echo $sum;

[graham23s]

Hi Mate,

thats perfect results coming back great for example:

1 files i test upload is around 700mb it comes back this for the size:

2048


is there a way to convert to a more readable form say MB and GB.

[graham23s]

sorry dupe post

[Mwnciau]

preg_match_all('#(?<=bytes=")\d{1,15}(!?")#i', $xml, $out); // doesn't match the bytes=" and " but checks for them

array_sum($out[0]);

echo $sum;

I think that is more efficient, was going to add negative lookahead and negative lookbehind in my original post but forgot to.


is there a way to convert to a more readable form say MB and GB.

$bytes = 1024768;
$kbytes = $bytes / 1024;
$mbytes = $kbytes / 1024;
$gbytes = $mbytes / 1024;

Hi guys,

thanks a ton for all your help im 95% there.

i was trying to test the code above in a seperate file i tried:

<?php

$filecontent = file_get_contents("filename.xml");

$xml = simplexml_load_string($filecontent);

preg_match_all('#bytes="\d{1,15}"#i', $xml, $out); // use previously posted preg_match_all

$search = array('bytes=','"'); // array of things to search for

$sizes = str_replace($search, "", $out[0]); // strip off any things in the $search array

$sum = array_sum($sizes); // get the sum

echo $sum;

?>

but this returns 0, have i typed this correctly?

cheers guys

Graham

[Mwnciau]

Try it without $xml = simplexml_load_string($filecontent);.

$xml = simplexml_load_string($filecontent); returns an array, not a string.

[graham23s]

Brilliant thanks guys just 1 last thing

code:

<?php

$filecontent = file_get_contents("filename.xml");

//$xml = simplexml_load_string($filecontent);

preg_match_all('#bytes="\d{1,15}"#i', $filecontent, $out); // use previously posted preg_match_all

$search = array('bytes=','"'); // array of things to search for

$sizes = str_replace($search, "", $out[0]); // strip off any things in the $search array

$sum = array_sum($sizes); // get the sum

$bytes = 1024768;
$kbytes = $bytes / 1024;
$mbytes = $kbytes / 1024;
$gbytes = $mbytes / 1024;

echo $sum;

?>

what is the right context to get the file size? $sum is the total which echoes: 1563698176

how would i get the size in GB for example?

thanks again guys

Graham

[Mwnciau]

echo $kbytes; // kilobytes
echo $mbytes; // megabytes
echo $gbytes; // gigabytes

[graham23s]

Hi Mate,

when i echo out the gigabyte one for example i get:

1563698176
0.000954389572144

the top figure is the $sum and the second the $gbytes it's a really long integer is there a way i can do : 4.26gb <-- for example

thanks mate

i can't thank you guys enough i would never have got there by myself:)

thanks guys
