Hey Monks,
I'm a bit of a newbie to Perl, so please bear with me. I have developed/pieced together a script that will calculate the total file size of a directory (including its subdirectories). What I really need to be able to do is have my script:
(1) read a list of server names and their shares(ie \\server\share) FROM a csv file
(2) scan those shares and report the size of each
(3) output that information to a new csv file
Here is my code so far:
use File::Find;
use strict;
my ($dir);
open(OUT, "> output.csv") or die("Couldn't open output.csv\n");
#Displays total size of specified path (total includes subfolders)
foreach my $dir (@ARGV) {
my $total;
print "\n\nWalking $dir\n\n";
find(sub { $total += -s }, $dir);
$total = ($total / 1024) / 1024;
$total = sprintf("%0.2f", $total);
print OUT "$dir, $total,";
print "\tOutput created.\n";
}
close(OUT);
#Displays program syntax on screen
if ($ARGV[0] eq ""){&syntax; exit 1;}
$dir = $ARGV[0];
sub syntax
{
print "
SYNTAX
\tperl dirsize.pl {dirname}\n\n
Examples\n
\tperl dirsize.pl D:\MYFILES\n\t
\tperl dirsize.pl \\\\SERVER1\\PROFILES\n\n";
}
I understand that I probably need to use DBI to parse the CSV, but I am not quite sure how to go about it. I would appreciate any type of help on this. Thanks in advance!
