shell截取文件行数_PowerShell获取大（大）文件的行数

One of the ways to get number of lines from a file is this method in PowerShell:

PS C:\Users\Pranav\Desktop\PS_Test_Scripts> $a=Get-Content .\sub.ps1

PS C:\Users\Pranav\Desktop\PS_Test_Scripts> $a.count

34

PS C:\Users\Pranav\Desktop\PS_Test_Scripts>

However, when I have a large 800 MB text file, how do I get the line number from it without reading the whole file?

The above method will consume too much RAM resulting in crashing the script or taking too long to complete.

Use Get-Content -Read $nLinesAtTime to read your file part by part:

$nlines = 0;

# Read file by 1000 lines at a time

gc $YOURFILE -read 1000 | % { $nlines += $_.Length };

[string]::Format("{0} has {1} lines", $YOURFILE, $nlines)

And here is simple, but slow script to validate work on a small file:

gc $YOURFILE | Measure-Object -Line
