urlsize v1.0.2

urlsize

urlsize is a Node-powered command-line utility for getting the file sizes of one or more URLs.

You can install it with npm install -g urlsize.

Usage

urlsize [options] [<url>...]

Options:
  --file, -f  read URLs from a text file (one per line)
  -d          sort URLs by size descending (default: ascending)
  --csv, -c   output comma-separated values
  --tsv, -t   output tab-separated values
  --help, -h  show this helpful message
  -v          print more helpful messages to stderr

Examples

Just get the size of a single URL:

$ urlsize google.com
50.8K   http://google.com

Get the size of multiple URLs:

$ urlsize google.com yahoo.com
50.8K   http://google.com
286.1K  http://yahoo.com

Read the list of URLs from a text file:

$ echo "usa.gov\ncensus.gov" > urls.txt
$ urlsize --file urls.txt
36.3K   http://usa.gov  
182.7K  http://census.gov

Output the sizes as tab-separated values, where the length column is the size in bytes:

$ urlsize --tsv census.gov usa.gov
url     size    length
http://usa.gov  36.3K   37126
http://census.gov       182.7K  187063

By default, URLs are sorted in the output by size ascending. You can sort them in descending order with the -d flag:

$ urlsize -d census.gov usa.gov
182.7K  http://census.gov
36.3K   http://usa.gov
