这是我的选择，简短明了:

/**
 * @param int $bytes Number of bytes (eg. 25907)
 * @param int $precision [optional] Number of digits after the decimal point (eg. 1)
 * @return string Value converted with unit (eg. 25.3KB)
 */
function formatBytes($bytes, $precision = 2) {
    $unit = ["B", "KB", "MB", "GB"];
    $exp = floor(log($bytes, 1024)) | 0;
    return round($bytes / (pow(1024, $exp)), $precision).$unit[$exp];
}

或者，更愚蠢和有效:

function formatBytes($bytes, $precision = 2) {
    if ($bytes > pow(1024,3)) return round($bytes / pow(1024,3), $precision)."GB";
    else if ($bytes > pow(1024,2)) return round($bytes / pow(1024,2), $precision)."MB";
    else if ($bytes > 1024) return round($bytes / 1024, $precision)."KB";
    else return ($bytes)."B";
}

这是Kohana的实现，你可以使用它:

public static function bytes($bytes, $force_unit = NULL, $format = NULL, $si = TRUE)
{
    // Format string
    $format = ($format === NULL) ? '%01.2f %s' : (string) $format;

    // IEC prefixes (binary)
    if ($si == FALSE OR strpos($force_unit, 'i') !== FALSE)
    {
        $units = array('B', 'KiB', 'MiB', 'GiB', 'TiB', 'PiB');
        $mod   = 1024;
    }
    // SI prefixes (decimal)
    else
    {
        $units = array('B', 'kB', 'MB', 'GB', 'TB', 'PB');
        $mod   = 1000;
    }

    // Determine unit to use
    if (($power = array_search((string) $force_unit, $units)) === FALSE)
    {
        $power = ($bytes > 0) ? floor(log($bytes, $mod)) : 0;
    }

    return sprintf($format, $bytes / pow($mod, $power), $units[$power]);
}

function changeType($size, $type, $end){
    $arr = ['B', 'KB', 'MB', 'GB', 'TB'];
    $tSayi = array_search($type, $arr);
    $eSayi = array_search($end, $arr);
    $pow = $eSayi - $tSayi;
    return $size * pow(1024 * $pow) . ' ' . $end;
}

echo changeType(500, 'B', 'KB');

另一个压缩实现，可以转换为以1024为基数(二进制)或以1000为基数(十进制)，也适用于难以置信的大数字，因此使用bc库:

function renderSize($byte,$precision=2,$mibi=true)
{
    $base = (string)($mibi?1024:1000);
    $labels = array('K','M','G','T','P','E','Z','Y');
    for($i=8;$i>=1;$i--)
        if(bccomp($byte,bcpow($base, $i))>=0)
            return bcdiv($byte,bcpow($base, $i), $precision).' '.$labels[$i-1].($mibi?'iB':'B');
    return $byte.' Byte';
}

function convertToReadableSize($size)
{
  $base = log($size) / log(1024);
  $suffix = array("B", "KB", "MB", "GB", "TB");
  $f_base = floor($base);
  return round(pow(1024, $base - floor($base)), 1) . $suffix[$f_base];
}

只需要调用函数

echo convertToReadableSize(1024); // Outputs '1KB'
echo convertToReadableSize(1024 * 1024); // Outputs '1MB'

kb除以1024,mb除以1024^2,GB除以1024^3。就这么简单。
