Check the total content size of a tar gz file
How can I extract the size of the total uncomp开发者_如何学Cressed file data in a .tar.gz file from command line?
This works for any file size:
zcat archive.tar.gz | wc -c
For files smaller than 4Gb you could also use the -l option with gzip:
$ gzip -l compressed.tar.gz
compressed uncompressed ratio uncompressed_name
132 10240 99.1% compressed.tar
This will sum the total content size of the extracted files:
$ tar tzvf archive.tar.gz | sed 's/ \+/ /g' | cut -f3 -d' ' | sed '2,$s/^/+ /' | paste -sd' ' | bc
The output is given in bytes.
Explanation: tar tzvf
lists the files in the archive in verbose format like ls -l
. sed
and cut
isolate the file size field. The second sed
puts a + in front of every size except the first and paste
concatenates them, giving a sum expression that is then evaluated by bc
.
Note that this doesn't include metadata, so the disk space taken up by the files when you extract them is going to be larger - potentially many times larger if you have a lot of very small files.
The command gzip -l archive.tar.gz
doesn't work correctly with file sizes greater than 2Gb. I would recommend zcat archive.tar.gz | wc --bytes
instead for really large files.
I know this is an old answer; but I wrote a tool just for this two years ago. It’s called gzsize
and it gives you the uncompressed size of a gzip'ed file without actually decompressing the whole file on disk:
$ gzsize <your file>
Use the following command:
tar -xzf archive.tar.gz --to-stdout|wc -c
I'm finding everything sites in the web, and don't resolve this problem the get size when file size is bigger of 4GB.
first, which is most faster?
[oracle@base tmp]$ time zcat oracle.20180303.030001.dmp.tar.gz | wc -c 6667028480 real 0m45.761s user 0m43.203s sys 0m5.185s
[oracle@base tmp]$ time gzip -dc oracle.20180303.030001.dmp.tar.gz | wc -c 6667028480 real 0m45.335s user 0m42.781s sys 0m5.153s
[oracle@base tmp]$ time tar -tvf oracle.20180303.030001.dmp.tar.gz -rw-r--r-- oracle/oinstall 111828 2018-03-03 03:05 oracle.20180303.030001.log -rw-r----- oracle/oinstall 6666911744 2018-03-03 03:05 oracle.20180303.030001.dmp real 0m46.669s user 0m44.347s sys 0m4.981s
definitely, tar -xvf is the most faster, but ¿how to cancel executions after get header?
my solution is this:
[oracle@base tmp]$ time echo $(timeout --signal=SIGINT 1s tar -tvf oracle.20180303.030001.dmp.tar.gz | awk '{print $3}') | grep -o '[[:digit:]]*' | awk '{ sum += $1 } END { print sum }' 6667023572 real 0m1.005s user 0m0.013s sys 0m0.066s
A tar file is uncompressed until/unless it is filtered through another program, such as gzip, bzip2, lzip, compress, lzma, etc. The file size of the tar file is the same as the extracted files, with probably less than 1kb of header info added in to make it a valid tarball.
