How to du -sm all?

[huangyingw]

Hello,
I have run such command, with intention to calculate the size of all sub folders under /home/huangyingw

root@desktop:/home/huangyingw# du -sm /home/huangyingw/*|sort -n
But in fact, I found that, the hidden folder like /home/huangw/.android, /home/huangyingw/.mozilla, could not be listed.
How could I list all sub directories , including those .* directories, in one command?

I can think if a couple of ways, but they're not very nice.
This first one launches du many times:

find . -maxdepth 1 -type d -exec du -sh '{}' \;
This one needs to set IFS to be able to handle filenames with spaces:

IFS=$'\n'
du -sh $(find . -maxdepth 1 -type d)

In bash you can enable the dotglob option:

shopt -s dotglob
du -sh *
shopt -u dotglob

If you terminate your grep -exec command with '+' instead of ';' the command is called only once on all the files together.

du -s \.?*

will display the hidden directories.

[sisco311]

du -s \.?*

will display the hidden directories.

That will also match .. (the hardlink to the parent directory).

. is no a special character, so you don't have to quote it.

You can match all the dot files, but not . or .. with two globs:

echo .[^.]* ..?*

Or you could use the GLOBIGNORE variable:

GLOBIGNORE=.:..
echo .*

Really, your solution is too complicated.

I appreciate this solution.:popcorn:
