接受的答案不考虑硬链接或软链接，并将这些文件计算两次。您可能希望跟踪已看到的inode，而不是为这些文件添加大小。

import os
def get_size(start_path='.'):
    total_size = 0
    seen = {}
    for dirpath, dirnames, filenames in os.walk(start_path):
        for f in filenames:
            fp = os.path.join(dirpath, f)
            try:
                stat = os.stat(fp)
            except OSError:
                continue

            try:
                seen[stat.st_ino]
            except KeyError:
                seen[stat.st_ino] = True
            else:
                continue

            total_size += stat.st_size

    return total_size

print get_size()

蒙纳特的答案是很好的，但它失败的符号链接，所以你还必须检查这个路径是否真的存在

if os.path.exists(fp):
    total_size += os.stat(fp).st_size

递归的一行代码:

def getFolderSize(p):
   from functools import partial
   prepend = partial(os.path.join, p)
   return sum([(os.path.getsize(f) if os.path.isfile(f) else getFolderSize(f)) for f in map(prepend, os.listdir(p))])

我使用带有scandir的python 2.7.13，这里是我的一行递归函数，以获得文件夹的总大小:

from scandir import scandir
def getTotFldrSize(path):
    return sum([s.stat(follow_symlinks=False).st_size for s in scandir(path) if s.is_file(follow_symlinks=False)]) + \
    + sum([getTotFldrSize(s.path) for s in scandir(path) if s.is_dir(follow_symlinks=False)])

>>> print getTotFldrSize('.')
1203245680

使用库sh: du模块执行:

pip install sh

import sh
print( sh.du("-s", ".") )
91154728        .

如果您想传递asterix，请使用此处描述的glob。

要转换human readable中的值，请使用humanize:

pip install humanize

import humanize
print( humanize.naturalsize( 91157384 ) )
91.2 MB

当计算子目录的大小时，它应该更新其父目录的文件夹大小，这将一直进行下去，直到它到达根父目录。

下面的函数计算文件夹及其所有子文件夹的大小。

import os

def folder_size(path):
    parent = {}  # path to parent path mapper
    folder_size = {}  # storing the size of directories
    folder = os.path.realpath(path)

    for root, _, filenames in os.walk(folder):
        if root == folder:
            parent[root] = -1  # the root folder will not have any parent
            folder_size[root] = 0.0  # intializing the size to 0

        elif root not in parent:
            immediate_parent_path = os.path.dirname(root)  # extract the immediate parent of the subdirectory
            parent[root] = immediate_parent_path  # store the parent of the subdirectory
            folder_size[root] = 0.0  # initialize the size to 0

        total_size = 0
        for filename in filenames:
            filepath = os.path.join(root, filename)
            total_size += os.stat(filepath).st_size  # computing the size of the files under the directory
        folder_size[root] = total_size  # store the updated size

        temp_path = root  # for subdirectories, we need to update the size of the parent till the root parent
        while parent[temp_path] != -1:
            folder_size[parent[temp_path]] += total_size
            temp_path = parent[temp_path]

    return folder_size[folder]/1000000.0
