xdu, alternative Linux à TreeSize Free

Notre avis

xdu is a solid replacement for TreeSize Free if you're comfortable with the terminal and don't need a GUI. It delivers fast, hierarchical disk usage analysis with human-readable output and supports filtering by depth and symbolic links. While it lacks export formats like CSV or HTML, its output can be redirected or piped for scripting. Users who rely on visual tree maps or point-and-click navigation will need to adjust, but for quick, automated, or remote system checks, xdu performs the core job well.

Ce qui fonctionne pareil

  • Both scan local file systems and show disk usage in a tree hierarchy
  • Support filtering by directory depth

Ce qui change

  • xdu is command-line only; no GUI like TreeSize Free
  • No built-in export to CSV, HTML, or XML formats
  • Cannot open or import TreeSize Free saved scan files
  • Lacks real-time updating and column-based filtering in interface
  • No built-in duplicate file detection or permissions view

Ouvrir vos fichiers TreeSize Free

xdu cannot open or import files saved by TreeSize Free. TreeSize Free uses its own binary or XML format for saved scans, which xdu does not support. There is no direct file compatibility between the two tools. However, you can redirect xdu's text output to a file using shell redirection (e.g., xdu /path > report.txt), which allows basic sharing and scripting but lacks structured formatting like CSV or HTML.

  1. Install xdu using your package manager: sudo apt install xdu on Debian/Ubuntu
  2. Run xdu /your/path to scan a directory, replacing /your/path with the target folder
  3. Use --depth N to limit how many levels deep xdu scans
  4. Redirect output to a file with xdu /path > report.txt for sharing or logging
  5. Pipe xdu output to tools like less, grep, or sort for filtering and analysis
  6. Replace TreeSize Free scheduled scans with a cron job running xdu
