@ohos.statfs (statfs)

The statfs module provides APIs for obtaining file system information, including the total size and free size of a file system, in bytes.

NOTE

  • The initial APIs of this module are supported since API version 8. Newly added APIs will be marked with a superscript to indicate their earliest API version.
  • The APIs provided by this module are deprecated since API version 9. You are advised to use @ohos.file.statvfs.

Modules to Import

import statfs from '@ohos.statfs';

statfs.getFreeBytes

getFreeBytes(path:string):Promise<number>

Obtains the free size of the specified file system, in bytes. This API uses a promise to return the result.

System capability: SystemCapability.FileManagement.File.FileIO

Parameters

Name Type Mandatory Description
path string Yes Path of the file system.

Return value

Type Description
Promise<number> Promise used to return the free size obtained.

Example

import { BusinessError } from '@ohos.base';
let path = "/dev";
statfs.getFreeBytes(path).then((number: number) => {
  console.info("getFreeBytes promise successfully:" + number);
}).catch((err: BusinessError) => {
  console.info("getFreeBytes failed with error:" + JSON.stringify(err));
});

statfs.getFreeBytes

getFreeBytes(path:string, callback:AsyncCallback<number>): void

Obtains the free size of the specified file system, in bytes. This API uses an asynchronous callback to return the result.

System capability: SystemCapability.FileManagement.File.FileIO

Parameters

Name Type Mandatory Description
path string Yes Path of the file system.
callback AsyncCallback<number> Yes Callback invoked to return the free size obtained.

Example

import common from '@ohos.app.ability.common';
let context = getContext(this) as common.UIAbilityContext;
let path = context.filesDir;
statfs.getFreeBytes(path, (err: BusinessError, freeBytes:Number) => {
    if (err) {
        console.error('getFreeBytes callback failed');
    } else {
        console.info('getFreeBytes callback success' + freeBytes);
    }
});

statfs.getTotalBytes

getTotalBytes(path: string): Promise<number>

Obtains the total size of the specified file system, in byte. This API uses a promise to return the result.

System capability: SystemCapability.FileManagement.File.FileIO

Parameters

Name Type Mandatory Description
path string Yes Path of the file system.

Return value

Type Description
Promise<number> Promise used to return the total size obtained.

Example

import { BusinessError } from '@ohos.base';
let path = "/dev";
statfs.getTotalBytes(path).then((number: number) => {
  console.info("getTotalBytes promise successfully:" + number);
}).catch((err: BusinessError) => {
  console.info("getTotalBytes failed with error:" + JSON.stringify(err));
});

statfs.getTotalBytes

getTotalBytes(path: string, callback: AsyncCallback<number>): void

Obtains the total size of the specified file system, in bytes. This API uses an asynchronous callback to return the result.

System capability: SystemCapability.FileManagement.File.FileIO

Parameters

Name Type Mandatory Description
path string Yes Path of the file system.
callback AsyncCallback<number> Yes Callback invoked to return the total size obtained.

Example

import common from '@ohos.app.ability.common';
let context = getContext(this) as common.UIAbilityContext;
let path = context.filesDir;
statfs.getTotalBytes(path, (err: BusinessError, totalBytes:Number) => {
    if (err) {
        console.error('getTotalBytes callback failed');
    } else {
        console.info('getTotalBytes callback success' + totalBytes);
    }
});
