fs (version 1.6.0)

fs_bytes: Human readable file sizes

Description

Construct, manipulate and display vectors of file sizes. These are numeric vectors, so you can compare them numerically, but they can also be compared to human readable values such as '10MB'.

Usage

as_fs_bytes(x)

fs_bytes(x)

Arguments

x

A numeric or character vector. Character representations can use shorthand sizes (see examples).

Examples

Run this code
fs_bytes("1")
fs_bytes("1K")
fs_bytes("1Kb")
fs_bytes("1Kib")
fs_bytes("1MB")

fs_bytes("1KB") < "1MB"

sum(fs_bytes(c("1MB", "5MB", "500KB")))
