# systeminfo
Simple system monitoring library for node.js - Version 0.0.1
## Core concept
Node.JS comes with some basic OS-informations, but I always wanted a little more. So I came up to write this little library. This library is work in progress. It is quite "fresh" - means, there might be a lot of inconsistencies or even bugs. I was only able to test it on some Debian and Ubuntu distributions as well as OSX (Maveriks). But be carefull, not all options will work on OSX. AND: this library will definitely NOT work on Windows platforms!
If you have comments, suggestions & reports, please feel free to contact me!
## Sections
This library is splitted in several sections:
1. Operating System
2. CPU
3. Memory
4. File System
5. Network
6. Processes
7. Users
8. Internet
## Using +monitor
### Installation
At the time of writing, this library is dependent on the ```request``` module, which needs to be installed seperately. I created a npm ```package.json``` file, to be able to install it easily:
```
npm install
```
### Usage
All functions are implemented as asynchronous functions. Here a small example how to use them:
```
var systeminfo = require('./systeminfo.js');
systeminfo.cpu(function(data) {
console.log('CPU-Information:');
console.log(data);
})
```
