Disk Size for Desktop

A simple plugin that displays disk size on Linux and Windows. Mac not supported, yet.
This plugin does not depend on Flutter.

Features

• Available disk space.

• Free disk space.

• Disk capacity/size.

• is_empty extension on io::Directory.

To get available disk space

import 'package:size/size.dart';
void main() async{
  var x = Sizes();
  print(x.getAvailableDiskSpace('/home'));  // 800007566 -> int
  print(x.getFreeDiskSpace('/home'));  // 800002566 -> int
  print(x.getDiskCapacity('/home'));  // 4540002566 -> int
  print(await Directory.current.is_empty()); // false -> bool

Note: On linux, if your home, root and any other directory are on different partitions, your partition size will be returned.

Additional information

Each get.. function returns an int which is actually the disk size in byte.

Difference between getFreeDiskSpace and getAvailableDiskSpace

According to AlexP on askubuntu

• Free memory is the amount of memory which is currently not used for anything. This number should be small, because memory which is not used is simply wasted.
• Available memory is the amount of memory which is available for allocation to a new process or to existing processes.
