[Baypiggies] Number of inodes on a volume?

[Ted Nyman]

I suppose there are a few ways; I'd say statvfs is probably the best way.

If you want to try returning the free bytes, how about:

import os
import statvfs

def get_freebytes(path):
    the_data = os.statvfs(path)
    return the_data[statvfs.F_BSIZE] * the_data[statvfs.F_BFREE]
