Welcome to BoxLang OSHI

This module is based on the great work of the oshi library https://github.com/oshi/oshi?tab=readme-ov-file#documentation. You can use this module to get information about the Operating System and Hardware of the machine you are running on. This is a great way to even get sensor information or embedded system information like battery, raspberry pi, etc.

OSHI is a free JNA-based (native) Operating System and Hardware Information library for Java. It does not require the installation of any additional native libraries and aims to provide a cross-platform implementation to retrieve system information, such as OS version, processes, memory and CPU usage, disks and partitions, devices, sensors, etc.

Supported Features

• Computer System and firmware, baseboard
• Operating System and Version/Build
• Physical (core) and Logical (hyperthreaded) CPUs, processor groups, NUMA nodes
• System and per-processor load, usage tick counters, interrupts, uptime
• Process uptime, CPU, memory usage, user/group, command line args, thread details
• Physical and virtual memory used/available
• Mounted filesystems (type, usable and total space, options, reads and writes)
• Disk drives (model, serial, size, reads and writes) and partitions
• Network interfaces (IPs, bandwidth in/out), network parameters, TCP/UDP statistics
• Battery state (% capacity, time remaining, power usage stats)
• USB Devices
• Connected displays (with EDID info), graphics and audio cards
• Sensors (temperature, fan speeds, voltage) on some hardware

Contributed Functions

Here are the contributed functions in this module:

• getSystemInfo() : Get's the main entry point for the OSHI system: https://www.oshi.ooo/oshi-core-java11/apidocs/com.github.oshi/oshi/SystemInfo.html
• getOperatingSystem() : Get's the Operating System information: https://www.oshi.ooo/oshi-core-java11/apidocs/com.github.oshi/oshi/software/os/OperatingSystem.html
• getHardware() : Get's the Hardware information: https://www.oshi.ooo/oshi-core-java11/apidocs/com.github.oshi/oshi/hardware/HardwareAbstractionLayer.html

The following are also contributed functions provided by convenience:

• getCpuUsage( [interval] ) : Gets the CPU usage of the system with a custom interval
• getFreeSpace( path ) : Gets the free space of a drive
• getTotalSpace( path ) : Gets the total space of a drive
• getSystemFreeMemory() : Gets the free memory of the operating system
• getSystemTotalMemory() : Gets the total memory of the operating system
• getJVMFreeMemory() : Gets the free memory of the JVM
• getJVMTotalMemory() : Gets the total memory of the JVM

Ini Files Support

In order to leverage ini files, you can install the bx-ini module, which provides a fluent API to work with ini files. The ini file format is a simple key-value pair format that allows you to store configuration settings in a human-readable format.
