I've already know a sharespace path: \sharespace\test1
I used this line to get the latest update folder under this path:
$lastbuild=get-childitem $var.droppath.TrimEnd()|where-object {$_.name -match "10."} |Sort-Object -Property LastWriteTime -Descending | Select-Object -First 1
$lastbuild.fullname.TrimEnd()
what I got is \\sharespace\test1\10.0.1212.1
How can I get this folder's size? I used the following code, but only get the totalsize of its parent path\\sharespace\test1
$mapbuild.mapNetworkDrive("u:",$lastbuild.fullname.TrimEnd())
$fsobuild = new-Object -com Scripting.FileSystemObject
$dobuild = $fsobuild.getdrive("u:")
Write-host "Size of latestbuild:"
$dobuild.totalsize
This looks like exactly what you need: Scripting Guy article on getting folder size
I think it's important to note that powershell can typically handle UNC paths natively, so there's no need to map a drive. You should be able to do something like this:
