Required for PR #6578.

By default, the get_size_on_disk method calls the method _get_size_on_disk_du that uses du to obtain the total directory size in bytes. If the call to du fails for whatever reason, recursive stat is being used, though, that is discouraged as stat returns the apparent size of files, not the actual disk usage.

I further extended the existing tests for RemoteData to use both, LocalTransport, as well as SshTransport, and test for the functionality added in this PR.

Pinging also @npaulish, as she's currently working on retrieving RemoteData objects.

This is maybe machine-dependent, but rather than going via our API (that is more robust, but definitely going to be slower, I think) have a first "fast" option just running du -s and parsing the output (but careful about units! E.g. it uses "blocks", on some systems it's 512 or 2048bytes!! And if it fails, fall back to your solution?

Note to self to run du via exec_command_wait method from transport.

this whole function, doesn't really need to be separated I feel.. It's basically only executes a command, and you don't re-use it, right?

I found the design to have just one top-level method get_size_on_disk nice, which tries to call the two private methods, in terms of separation of concerns.

Though, it is true that this pollutes the API of RemoteData somewhat... So I'm also fine of either moving the private methods to some utils module, or merging them. Maybe @unkcpz can comment on good coding practices here?

I'm not sure if I understand, sorry 😬
Since it's not really re-usable by other method, I'd vote for merging it, and avoid over-fictionalizing

Not sure why my replies via the files GH tab appear as a review, but whatever... ^^

Thanks for the review @khsrali. I implemented most of your proposed changes!

As to our in-person discussion if du or lstat is preferred, I think none of the two is ideal... lstat giving the actual byte-sized content, which is neat and all, but won't correspond to the disk space that will actually be occupied locally by a file, due to the use of blocks for the file system. And du giving the actual occupied disk space on the remote, which, however, might be different from the local file system (due to having a different file system on the local machine, different formatting, different block size, etc.). Hence, the big difference in the file size check in the test. For real-world use cases, with more and larger files, the difference is likely much smaller, and won't matter too much, I think. I'll add a test for a larger file, as well as modify the message that the given size is just an estimate, so that user are aware they should take the value with a grain of salt.

Maybe also @agoscinski with his actual computer science background can weigh in 🫶

Yes seems like we should split the function into two or provide optional arguments. These two concepts seem to be distinguished by the terms "disk usage" and "apparent size" (see https://stackoverflow.com/a/569485). I think the output of du --apparent-size is the same as with lstat, so you do not need to use lstat

Thanks for the review, @agoscinski! I'm currently still working on this, will ping you once it's again ready for review.

The reason I'm providing lstat as a fallback option is if du is not available (e.g., MacOS, as you mentioned, didn't know that ^^), or if exec_command_wait isn't available, which will be the case for FirecREST.

OK, this should be ready for a final review, @agoscinski and @khsrali. Also pinging, @mikibonacci, if you want to provide some feedback on the CLI/API for use in AiiDAlab?
