About This Tool

This Disk Usage Analyzer tool helps you visualize and understand how storage space is being used on your system. Upload a directory structure file (generated by commands like 'du' or 'tree') or let the tool scan a server path to analyze file sizes, folder distributions, and storage patterns. The tool provides interactive visualizations including pie charts, bar graphs, and directory trees with size breakdowns. Perfect for system administrators, developers, and anyone needing to optimize disk space on GNOME, Arch Linux, or any file system. Features include: file type analysis, largest files identification, exportable reports, and comparison between directories.

How to Use

  1. Choose input method: Upload a directory structure file (JSON, CSV, or plain text from 'du' command) OR enter a server path for direct scanning.
  2. Configure analysis options: Set depth limit, exclude patterns, or include hidden files.
  3. Click 'Analyze Disk Usage' to process the data.
  4. View interactive results: Pie charts show distribution by file type, bar graphs display largest folders, and tree view visualizes the directory structure.
  5. Use filters to focus on specific file types or size ranges.
  6. Export results as JSON or CSV for further analysis.

Frequently Asked Questions

Find Quick Answers

What file formats are supported for upload?
The tool supports JSON, CSV, and plain text formats. For plain text, it can parse output from common commands like 'du -ah', 'tree -ah', or custom directory listings with file sizes.
Can I analyze remote server directories?
Yes, if you have server-side access, you can enter a server path directly. The tool will scan the directory recursively (with proper permissions) and return the analysis. This requires the PHP backend to have read access to the specified path.
Is there a file size limit for uploads?
The tool can handle large directory structures, but very large uploads (over 50MB) may require server configuration adjustments. For extremely large analyses, consider using the server path scanning option instead.
How accurate are the visualizations?
Visualizations are generated from precise byte calculations. The tool uses actual file sizes from your uploaded data or server scan, ensuring accurate representation of disk usage patterns.
Can I compare two directory structures?
Currently, the tool analyzes one directory at a time. For comparison, you can run separate analyses and manually compare the exported results.
