๐ฆ DESCRIPTION ๐ฆ
Show information about the file system on which each FILE resides, or all file systems by default.
that's the whole vibe. you point her at files, or you don't, and she tells you what's up with the disk space. main character energy honestly โญ
๐ OPTIONS ๐
--helpโ print help information. she's helpful like that ๐ฅฐ-a,--allโ include dummy file systems. yes bestie, even the fake ones get a moment ๐-B,--block-size <SIZE>โ scale sizes by SIZE before printing them; e.g.'-BM'prints sizes in units of1,048,576bytes. big numbers deserve a glow-up โจ--totalโ produce a grand total. a lil sum-sum at the end, obsessed ๐งฎ-h,--human-readableโ print sizes in human readable format (e.g.,1K234M2G). so your brain doesn't have to do math, we love her for that ๐-H,--siโ likewise, but use powers of1000not1024. metric girlies rise ๐ซถ-i,--inodesโ list inode information instead of block usage. different flavor, same slay ๐-kโ like--block-size=1K. tiny option, big energy ๐-l,--localโ limit listing to local file systems. keep it close to home ๐--no-syncโ do not invokesyncbefore getting usage info (default). chill mode, no extra work ๐ค--output[=<FIELD_LIST>...]โ[default: source,size,used,avail,pcent,target]
use output format defined by FIELD_LIST, or print all fields if FIELD_LIST is omitted. you're the director, you pick the columns ๐ฌ
Possible values:
sourcefstypeitotaliusediavailipcentsizeusedavailpcentfiletarget
-P,--portabilityโ use the POSIX output format. for when you gotta be โจprofessionalโจ--syncโ invokesyncbefore getting usage info (non-windows only). flush it first bestie, no shortcuts ๐ฟ-t,--type <TYPE>โ limit listing to file systems of type TYPE. filter queen ๐-T,--print-typeโ print file system type. say it loud, say it proud ๐ฃ-x,--exclude-type <TYPE>โ limit listing to file systems not of type TYPE. bye felicia ๐-V,--versionโ print version. gotta know which era of her you're dealing with ๐[paths]โ the files/dirs you wanna ask about. optional, she'll do the whole system if you don't say anything ๐ธ
๐ฅ EXTRA ๐ฅ
Display values are in units of the first available SIZE from --block-size, and the DF_BLOCK_SIZE, BLOCK_SIZE and BLOCKSIZE environment variables. Otherwise, units default to 1024 bytes (or 512 if POSIXLY_CORRECT is set).
SIZE is an integer and optional unit (example: 10M is 10*1024*1024). Units are K, M, G, T, P, E, Z, Y (powers of 1024) or KB, MB,... (powers of 1000). Units can be decimal, hexadecimal, octal, binary.
ngl the precedence order here is a whole thing โ env vars, --block-size, then the defaults. read it twice, it's giving โจsubtleโจ. and yes, decimal AND hex AND octal AND binary units are all valid, she contains multitudes ๐
