Fold_Files

Display disk usage of some directory tree as a flame graph.

This is a port of the files.pl script, which is part of the FlameGraph repository, to Rust.

Why?: No particular reason.

Installation

cargo install --git https://github.com/stephan-cr/fold_files.git

fold_files <directory> | perl flamegraph.pl --hash --countname=bytes --nametype=Directory: > out.svg

Alternatively, instead of the original Flamegraph implementation, Inferno might be used.

fold_files --buffered . | inferno-flamegraph --hash --countname=MB --nametype=Directory: --height 24 --factor $(( 1. / 1024 / 1024 )) > out.svg

Note: $(( 1. / 1024 / 1024 )) is zsh specific, bash has something similar, but won't work with floating point numbers. Fish has math.
