Try directory quotas on the backend storage file system. 

With XFS 
https://docs.oracle.com/cd/E37670_01/E37355/html/ol_prjquo_xfs.html 

GlusterFS has a very easy way to implement simple size quota on any directory:

Subject: [owncloud-devel] Create file upload restrictions for users through 
owncloud server 

ownCloud version: 8.2.2 
Webserver: apache2 
Database: MySQL 
OS: Linux 
PHP version: 5.6.x 


Hello Everyone, 
I tried posting this on the owncloud support forums, but @RealRancor advised me 
to use this list. You can see my question on the forums 
https://forum.owncloud.org/viewtopic.php?f=36&t=32993 . 

I am still learning about owncloud and its amazing apps capability, so please 
elaborate your answers if you can. I have a simple requirement. Lets say I 
start a owncloud webserver on a machine. I ask users to upload their pictures 
and videos on lets say swim club trips. I want to be able to build an app with 
a functionality that restricts the users with two folders images and videos to 
file size limits 100 MB and 500 MB respectively. Or there a better way without 
using app framework ? I know there is a way to set the global owncloud upload 
limit, I also know that there is a place where user skeleton or default files 
can be created. 

I am not looking for a spoon-fed answer, just general directions where I can go 
and look, so I am able to achieve the said functionality of different upload 
restrictions for different directories at the user/ client level. 

Let me know your thoughts about this. 

I am reading this documentation, and understanding it, but can you sketch 
roughly how would you / or any one with knowledge of owncloud and apps would go 
about building such an application. Just some starting pointers please, since I 
don't have much prior experience with web development. 


Thanks 
Alam
