重复作为匆匆.filesize()替代方案提供的代码段，下面的代码段根据所使用的前缀给出不同的精度数字。它不像某些片段那样简洁，但我喜欢这样的结果。

def human_size(size_bytes):
    """
    format a size in bytes into a 'human' file size, e.g. bytes, KB, MB, GB, TB, PB
    Note that bytes/KB will be reported in whole numbers but MB and above will have greater precision
    e.g. 1 byte, 43 bytes, 443 KB, 4.3 MB, 4.43 GB, etc
    """
    if size_bytes == 1:
        # because I really hate unnecessary plurals
        return "1 byte"

    suffixes_table = [('bytes',0),('KB',0),('MB',1),('GB',2),('TB',2), ('PB',2)]

    num = float(size_bytes)
    for suffix, precision in suffixes_table:
        if num < 1024.0:
            break
        num /= 1024.0

    if precision == 0:
        formatted_size = "%d" % num
    else:
        formatted_size = str(round(num, ndigits=precision))

    return "%s %s" % (formatted_size, suffix)

现代Django有自模板标签filesizeformat:

将值格式化为人类可读的文件大小(即:“13 KB”，“4.1 MB”，“102字节”等)。

例如:

{{ value|filesizeformat }}

如果值是123456789，输出将是117.7 MB。

我最近提出了一个避免循环的版本，使用log2来确定大小顺序，作为后缀列表的移位和索引:

from math import log2

_suffixes = ['bytes', 'KiB', 'MiB', 'GiB', 'TiB', 'PiB', 'EiB', 'ZiB', 'YiB']

def file_size(size):
    # determine binary order in steps of size 10 
    # (coerce to int, // still returns a float)
    order = int(log2(size) / 10) if size else 0
    # format file size
    # (.4g results in rounded numbers for exact matches and max 3 decimals, 
    # should never resort to exponent values)
    return '{:.4g} {}'.format(size / (1 << (order * 10)), _suffixes[order])

不过，它的可读性很可能被认为是非python化的。

def human_readable_data_quantity(quantity, multiple=1024):
    if quantity == 0:
        quantity = +0
    SUFFIXES = ["B"] + [i + {1000: "B", 1024: "iB"}[multiple] for i in "KMGTPEZY"]
    for suffix in SUFFIXES:
        if quantity < multiple or suffix == SUFFIXES[-1]:
            if suffix == SUFFIXES[0]:
                return "%d%s" % (quantity, suffix)
            else:
                return "%.1f%s" % (quantity, suffix)
        else:
            quantity /= multiple

你应该用humanize。

>>> humanize.naturalsize(1000000)
'1.0 MB'
>>> humanize.naturalsize(1000000, binary=True)
'976.6 KiB'
>>> humanize.naturalsize(1000000, gnu=True)
'976.6K'

参考: https://pypi.org/project/humanize/

其中一个库是hurry.filesize。

>>> from hurry.filesize import alternative
>>> size(1, system=alternative)
'1 byte'
>>> size(10, system=alternative)
'10 bytes'
>>> size(1024, system=alternative)
'1 KB'
