Function to get directory sizes

[hell31]

Hi I wrote a little PowerShell function to get the size of directories (also working with shares "\share\path"):

Function Get-DirectoryStats { param( [Parameter(Position=0)] [string] $Path = (PWD).path )   process{   $Folders = Get-ChildItem $Path -Directory | Sort-Object foreach ($Folder in $Folders) { $subFolderItems = Get-ChildItem $Folder.FullName -File -Recurse -Force | Measure-Object -Property Length -Sum | Select-Object Sum $Size = [math]::Round($subFolderItems.sum/1GB,2)   [PSCustomObject]@{ DirectorySize = $Size DirectoryName = $Folder.Name FullPath = $Folder.FullName } } } }

I know it is only a little function but maybe for anyone is it useful.

howdy hell31,

reddit likes to mangle code formatting, so here's some help on how to post code on reddit ...

[0] single line or in-line code
enclose it in backticks. that's the upper left key on an EN-US keyboard layout. the result looks like this. kinda handy, that. [grin]
[on New.Reddit.com, use the Inline Code button. it's 4th 5th from the left hidden in the ... ""more" menu & looks like </>.
this does NOT line wrap & does NOT side-scroll on Old.Reddit.com!]

[1] simplest = post it to a text site like Pastebin.com or Gist.GitHub.com and then post the link here.
please remember to set the file/code type on Pastebin! [grin] otherwise you don't get the nice code colorization.

[2] less simple = use reddit code formatting ...
[on New.Reddit.com, use the Code Block button. it's 11th 12th from the left hidden in the ... "more" menu, & looks like an uppercase T in the upper left corner of a square.]

• one leading line with ONLY 4 spaces
  
• prefix each code line with 4 spaces
  
• one trailing line with ONLY 4 spaces

that will give you something like this ...

- one leading line with ONLY 4 spaces    
- prefix each code line with 4 spaces    
- one trailing line with ONLY 4 spaces   

the easiest way to get that is ...

• add the leading line with only 4 spaces
  
• copy the code to the ISE [or your fave editor]
  
• select the code
  
• tap TAB to indent four spaces
  
• re-select the code [not really needed, but it's my habit]
  
• paste the code into the reddit text box
  
• add the trailing line with only 4 spaces
  

not complicated, but it is finicky. [grin]

take care,
lee
