In my iPhone app I am using the following code to find a file's size. Even though the file exists, I am seeing zero for the size. Can anyone help me? Thanks in advance.
NSArray *paths = NSSearchPathForDirectoriesInDomains(NSDocumentDirectory, NSUserDomainMask, YES);
NSString *documentsDirectory = [paths objectAtIndex:0];
NSString *URL = [documentsDirectory stringByAppendingPathComponent:@"XML/Extras/Approval.xml"];
NSLog(@"URL:%@",URL);
NSError *attributesError = nil;
NSDictionary *fileAttributes = [[NSFileManager defaultManager] attributesOfItemAtPath:URL error:&attributesError];
int fileSize = [fileAttributes fileSize];
Try this;
NSDictionary *fileAttributes = [[NSFileManager defaultManager] attributesOfItemAtPath:URL error:&attributesError];
NSNumber *fileSizeNumber = [fileAttributes objectForKey:NSFileSize];
long long fileSize = [fileSizeNumber longLongValue];
Note that the fileSize won't necessarily fit in an integer (especially a signed one) although you could certainly drop to a long for iOS as you'll never exceed that in reality. The example uses long long as in my code I have to be compatible with systems with much larger storage available.
One liner in Swift:
let fileSize = try! NSFileManager.defaultManager().attributesOfItemAtPath(fileURL.path!)[NSFileSize]!.longLongValue
If you have a URL
(NSURL
, not a String
), you can get the file size without a FileManager
:
let attributes = try? myURL.resourceValues(forKeys: Set([.fileSizeKey]))
let fileSize = attributes?.fileSize // Int?
Swift 4.x
do {
let fileSize = try (FileManager.default.attributesOfItem(atPath: filePath) as NSDictionary).fileSize()
print(fileSize)
} catch let error {
print(error)
}
Get the file size in MB
Try This code for swift
func getSizeOfFile(withPath path:String) -> UInt64?
{
var totalSpace : UInt64?
var dict : [FileAttributeKey : Any]?
do {
dict = try FileManager.default.attributesOfItem(atPath: path)
} catch let error as NSError {
print(error.localizedDescription)
}
if dict != nil {
let fileSystemSizeInBytes = dict![FileAttributeKey.systemSize] as! NSNumber
totalSpace = fileSystemSizeInBytes.uint64Value
return (totalSpace!/1024)/1024
}
return nil
}
