See Bug #2685;

quota display in gollem is an entirely separate issue than what this 
ticket was originally opened for.  Moving that enhancement to a new 
ticket.

Perhaps a page that says something like:



Quota Information:



Used:  xxx

Quota:  xxx

Percent:  xx%



What do you think?

Michael, I like option 2.  It will be less of a hit and give users the 
info that they want.  Perhaps it can be put on one of the top buttons? 
  What are your thoughts?



Thanks.

I hesitate to do this because determining the current size of all 
files in a VFS backend can be a very time-consuming process (e.g. a 
ftp account with hundreds of folders).  The code as it stands right 
now only calculates the size when a write process is performed.  This 
will not happen on the majority of page loads.  If you are asking to 
recalculate the filesize on every page load with some kind of status 
bar, this will be a terrible performance issue at this time.



Other options to consider:

1.) Caching filesize - this will only work if we can be sure that the 
Horde VFS object in the current session is the only method that can be 
used to update the filesystem.  This might be doable if we add an 
'exclusivevfsupdate' parameter that indicates this is the case.  In 
the default case, however, we can't cache.

2.) Have a separate page in gollem that can be accessed that will show 
the VFS quota information - a better option.

There's one thng missing, though.  The block display in Gollem that 
reports the quota status to the user, just like IMP does.  Can this be 
added?

Implemented in HEAD.

I will try to take a look at this sometime soon.



Some notes from the gollem aspect of these patches that were posted on 
the list by me a few months ago:





Looks like this is Bug #162.  Just some notes on a very quick perusal

of the gollem part of the patches submitted:



1) this should be allowed to be turned on/off per backend setting, not

generally in the configuration file

2) there is absolutely no hurry to get this into gollem since it will

require a version of Horde that doesn't even exist yet (i.e. Horde 3.1

at the earliest).

Any update on this one?

I was not the original author of these, so I will defer to him.

Are these patches good enough to commit?  This is an enhancement I 
have been looking for.



Thanks.

Can you update the getFileSize() and getFolderSize() functions in the 
sql and sql_file drivers to use bind variables?

I cleaned up some of the wording on this patch a bit.

From what I can tell, I don't think this will display the quota in 
the top block of gollem.  I think this should be done, otherwise users 
may get confused.

Thoughts?

Bounty added: http://www.horde.org/bounties/details.php#horde_vfsquota

This has to be implemented in the VFS package.

Add the ability to set up quotas on the SQL VFS or file based VFS.
