Sort manga by storage size and display the size

Open orangpelupa opened this issue 2 years ago • 2 comments

Describe your suggested feature

Add new sorting method that allow the Manga library to be sorted by storage size.

To make it easier to know which Manga took lots of space and how much. So it's easier to cleanup the downloaded library

Other details

Not an important feature as other tools like diskusage can be used. But it'll be much easier to do if it's all can be done inside tachiyomi. Instead of using diskusage to check the Manga size, then use file manager / tachiyomi to delete the files

Besides the fact this is super niche sort method, it should probably be sort by download chapter count. Since in general download count ~= more storage taken (obvious image quality between sources could effect this). This would a be a usable sort method outside of you trying to clean up downloads.

As for addressing storage space directly. Any competent file manager has the ability to sort folders by size, grant it you would need to sort the source folder, then click in then sort again to see which manga are taking up the most space. But at the end of the day, just set tachiyomi to delete your chapters after being read and don't use it to hoard.

How to do that? Can I do it per manga?
