rdu - another disk usage utility

Installation

Binaries

rdu has prebuilt binaries for Linux and macOS on amd64 and arm64.

You can install it easily by using these commands:

wget https://git.rznet.fr/tchivert/rdu/releases/download/latest/rdu-<os>-<arch> -O /usr/local/bin/rdu
chmod +x /usr/local/bin/rdu

Exemple for an amd64 linux machine:

wget https://git.rznet.fr/tchivert/rdu/releases/download/latest/rdu-linux-amd64 -O /usr/local/bin/rdu
chmod +x /usr/local/bin/rdu

Debian-based distributions

You can install rdu with a deb package from my repository:

sudo curl https://dl.rznet.fr/api/packages/tchivert/debian/repository.key -o /etc/apt/keyrings/rznet-tchivert.asc
echo "deb [signed-by=/etc/apt/keyrings/rznet-tchivert.asc] https://dl.rznet.fr/api/packages/tchivert/debian stable main" | sudo tee -a /etc/apt/sources.list.d/rznet.list
sudo apt update

sudo apt install rdu

Or by downloading directly the latest .deb:

wget https://git.rznet.fr/tchivert/rdu/releases/download/latest/rdu-amd64.deb
sudo dpkg -i rdu_1.2-1_amd64.deb

Usage

Usage: rdu [-h] [-v] [-x] [-n] [-s] [-d <size>] [-t <threads>] [-k <top>] <dir>
Options:
  -h  Show this help message
  -v  Verbose
  -x  Scan current filesystem only
  -n  Non-interactive
  -s  Silent mode (no output)
  -d  Minimum dir size (default: 10M)
  -t  Max threads
