# rclone size

## Synopsis
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Counts objects in the path and calculates the total size. Prints the
|
|
|
|
result to standard output.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
By default the output is in human-readable format, but shows values in
|
|
|
|
both human-readable format as well as the raw numbers (global option
|
|
|
|
`--human-readable` is not considered). Use option `--json`
|
|
|
|
to format output as JSON instead.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Recurses by default, use `--max-depth 1` to stop the
|
|
|
|
recursion.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Some backends do not always provide file sizes, see for example
|
|
|
|
[Google Photos](/googlephotos/#size) and
|
|
|
|
[Google Drive](/drive/#limitations-of-google-docs).
|
|
|
|
Rclone will then show a notice in the log indicating how many such
|
|
|
|
files were encountered, and count them in as empty files in the output
|
|
|
|
of the size command.
