ByteSize

ByteSize is an utility for human-readable byte count representation.

Features:

• Pre-defined constants for various size units (e.g., B, Kb, kib, Mb, Mib, Gb, Gib, ... PB)
• ByteSize type which presents size units convertible to different size units.
• Artimetic operations for ByteSize
• FromStr impl for ByteSize, allowing to parse from string size representations like 1.5KiB and 521TiB.
• Serde support for binary and human-readable deserializers like JSON

Usage

Add this to your Cargo.toml:

[dependencies]
bytesize = {version = "1.2.0", features = ["serde"]}

and this to your crate root:

extern crate bytesize;

Example

Human readable representations (SI unit and Binary unit)

#[allow(dead_code)]
fn assert_display(expected: &str, b: ByteSize) {
  assert_eq!(expected, format!("{}", b));
}

#[test]
  fn test_display() {
    assert_display("215 B", ByteSize(215));

Arithmetic operations

extern crate bytesize;

use bytesize::ByteSize;

fn byte_arithmetic_operator() {
  let x = ByteSize::mb(1);
  let y = ByteSize::kb(100);

  let plus = x + y;
  print!("{}", plus);

  let minus = ByteSize::tb(100) + ByteSize::gb(4);
  print!("{}", minus);
}
