lfs

A linux utility listing your filesystems.

Besides traditional columns, the disk column helps you identify your "disk":

• remov : a removable device (such as an USB key)
• HDD : a rotational disk
• SSD : a solid state storage device, usually quite fast
• RAM : an in-memory device (such as zram)
• crypt : a crypted disk

All sizes are based on the current SI recommendations: 1M is one million bytes.

Installation

Precompiled binary

You can download it from https://github.com/Canop/lfs/releases

From source

You need the Rust tool chain.

cargo install lfs

Usage

lfs

By default, lfs only shows mount points backed by normal block devices (i.e. disks).

To show them all, use

lfs -a

To get the output as JSON, do lfs -j or lfs -a -j.

You may pass a path to have only the relevant device shown. For example:

Internals

If you want to display the same data in your Rust application, have a look at the lfs-core crate.
