Plugin Installation Instructions

(This plugin is preinstalled, you do not need to install it.)

Note: You do not need to install anything on the browser to use this plugin. The following instructions are for the administrator who installs the plugin on the server where TWiki is running.

• Download the ZIP file from the Plugin web (see below)
• Unzip DiskUsagePlugin.zip in your twiki installation directory. Content:

  File:	Description:
  data/TWiki/DiskUsagePlugin.txt	Plugin topic
  data/TWiki/DiskUsagePlugin.txt,v	Plugin topic repository
  lib/TWiki/Plugins/DiskUsagePlugin.pm	Plugin Perl module

• (Dakar) Visit configure in your TWiki installation, and enable the plugin in the {Plugins} section.
• Test if the plugin is correctly installed:
• see whether the %DISKUSAGE% directive is expanded above

Future development possibilities

It could be improved on considerably. e.g.

• One possibility is to install it in the TWiki web and use an include like WebChanges does
• This could be called WebDiskUsage or used on a page called WebStatus
• It should allow specification of topic and web. Currently it works only for the current web
