使用1000或kibibytes的幂将更符合标准:

def sizeof_fmt(num, use_kibibyte=True):
    base, suffix = [(1000.,'B'),(1024.,'iB')][use_kibibyte]
    for x in ['B'] + map(lambda x: x+suffix, list('kMGTP')):
        if -base < num < base:
            return "%3.1f %s" % (num, x)
        num /= base
    return "%3.1f %s" % (num, x)

附注:永远不要相信一个以K(大写)后缀打印数千的库。

这是我为另一个问题写的东西……

与xApple的答案非常相似，该对象总是以人类可读的格式打印。不同的是，它也是一个适当的int，所以你可以用它做数学! 它将格式说明符直接传递给数字格式，并附加后缀，因此几乎可以保证请求的长度将超出两到三个字符。我从来没有使用过这个代码，所以我没有费心去修复它!

class ByteSize(int):

    _KB = 1024
    _suffixes = 'B', 'KB', 'MB', 'GB', 'PB'

    def __new__(cls, *args, **kwargs):
        return super().__new__(cls, *args, **kwargs)

    def __init__(self, *args, **kwargs):
        self.bytes = self.B = int(self)
        self.kilobytes = self.KB = self / self._KB**1
        self.megabytes = self.MB = self / self._KB**2
        self.gigabytes = self.GB = self / self._KB**3
        self.petabytes = self.PB = self / self._KB**4
        *suffixes, last = self._suffixes
        suffix = next((
            suffix
            for suffix in suffixes
            if 1 < getattr(self, suffix) < self._KB
        ), last)
        self.readable = suffix, getattr(self, suffix)

        super().__init__()

    def __str__(self):
        return self.__format__('.2f')

    def __repr__(self):
        return '{}({})'.format(self.__class__.__name__, super().__repr__())

    def __format__(self, format_spec):
        suffix, val = self.readable
        return '{val:{fmt}} {suf}'.format(val=val, fmt=format_spec, suf=suffix)

    def __sub__(self, other):
        return self.__class__(super().__sub__(other))

    def __add__(self, other):
        return self.__class__(super().__add__(other))
    
    def __mul__(self, other):
        return self.__class__(super().__mul__(other))

    def __rsub__(self, other):
        return self.__class__(super().__sub__(other))

    def __radd__(self, other):
        return self.__class__(super().__add__(other))
    
    def __rmul__(self, other):
        return self.__class__(super().__rmul__(other))   

用法:

>>> size = 6239397620
>>> print(size)
5.81 GB
>>> size.GB
5.810891855508089
>>> size.gigabytes
5.810891855508089
>>> size.PB
0.005674699077644618
>>> size.MB
5950.353260040283
>>> size
ByteSize(6239397620)

我喜欢senderle的十进制版本的固定精度，所以这里有一种与上面joctee的答案的混合(你知道你可以取非整数底数的对数吗?):

from math import log
def human_readable_bytes(x):
    # hybrid of https://stackoverflow.com/a/10171475/2595465
    #      with https://stackoverflow.com/a/5414105/2595465
    if x == 0: return '0'
    magnitude = int(log(abs(x),10.24))
    if magnitude > 16:
        format_str = '%iP'
        denominator_mag = 15
    else:
        float_fmt = '%2.1f' if magnitude % 3 == 1 else '%1.2f'
        illion = (magnitude + 1) // 3
        format_str = float_fmt + ['', 'K', 'M', 'G', 'T', 'P'][illion]
    return (format_str % (x * 1.0 / (1024 ** illion))).lstrip('0')

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。

该功能在Boltons中可用，这对于大多数项目来说都是一个非常方便的库。

>>> bytes2human(128991)
'126K'
>>> bytes2human(100001221)
'95M'
>>> bytes2human(0, 2)
'0.00B'

如果你安装了Django，你也可以试试filesizeformat:

from django.template.defaultfilters import filesizeformat
filesizeformat(1073741824)

=>

"1.0 GB"
