Report bug · Request feature · Changelog

This is amazing. Started as a small project just for myself, it now has > 9,000 lines of code, > 300 versions published, > 1 mio downloads per month, > 15 mio downloads overall. Thank you to all who contributed to this project!

New Version 4.0

This next major version release 4.0 comes with several optimizations and changes:

new systeminformation website with better documentation and examples systeminformation.io
added typescript definitions
reworked network section: this will now return more information and allows getting networkStats for more than one interface at once.
dockerContainerStats for multiple containers or all containers at once
optimized graphics controller and display detection
added wifiNetworks to get available Wi-Fi networks
added vboxInfo to get detailed vm information
added chassis information
better Raspberry-PI detection
lot of minor improvements

Breaking Changes: you will see some minor breaking changes. Read the detailed changelog.

Quick Start

Lightweight collection of 40+ functions to retrieve detailed hardware, system and OS information.

simple to use
get detailed information about system, cpu, baseboard, battery, memory, disks/filesystem, network, docker, software, services and processes
supports Linux, macOS, partial Windows, FreeBSD, OpenBSD, NetBSD and SunOS support
no npm dependencies (for production)

Attention: this is a node.js library. It is supposed to be used as a backend/server-side library and will definitely not work within a browser.

Installation

$ npm install systeminformation --save

Usage

All functions (except version and time) are implemented as asynchronous functions. Here a small example how to use them:

const si = require('systeminformation');

// promises style - new since version 3
si.cpu()
  .then(data => console.log(data))
  .catch(error => console.error(error));

Callback, Promises, Async / Await

Core concept

Node.js comes with some basic OS information, but I always wanted a little more. So I came up to write this little library. This library is still work in progress. It is supposed to be used as a backend/server-side library (will definitely not work within a browser). It requires node.js version 4.0 and above.

I was able to test it on several Debian, Raspbian, Ubuntu distributions as well as macOS (Mavericks, Yosemite, El Captain, Sierra, High Sierra, Mojave) and some Windows 7, Windows 10, FreeBSD, OpenBSD, NetBSD and SunOS machines. Not all functions are supported on all operating systems. Have a look at the function reference in the docs to get further details.

If you have comments, suggestions & reports, please feel free to contact me!

I also created a nice little command line tool called mmon (micro-monitor) for Linux and macOS, also available via github and npm

14. “Get All / Observe” - functions

Function	Result object	Linux	BSD	Mac	Win	Sun	Comments
si.getStaticData(cb)	{…}	X	X	X	X	X	all static data at once
si.getDynamicData(srv,iface,cb)	{…}	X	X	X	X	X	all dynamic data at once Specify services and interfaces to monitor Defaults to first external network interface Pass “” for ALL services (linux/win only) Pass “” for ALL network interfaces

si.get(valueObject,cb)	{…}	X	X	X	X	X	get partial system info data at once In valueObject you can define all values, you want to get back (see documentation for details)
si.observe(valueObject,interval,cb)	-	X	X	X	X	X	Observe a defined value object call callback on changes polling interval in milliseconds

cb: Asynchronous Function Calls (callback)

Remember: all functions (except version and time) are implemented as asynchronous functions! There are now three ways to consume them:

Callback Style

const si = require('systeminformation');

si.cpu(function(data) {
  console.log('CPU Information:');
  console.log('- manufucturer: ' + data.manufacturer);
  console.log('- brand: ' + data.brand);
  console.log('- speed: ' + data.speed);
  console.log('- cores: ' + data.cores);
  console.log('- physical cores: ' + data.physicalCores);
  console.log('...');
})

Promises

Promises Style is new in version 3.0.

When omitting callback parameter (cb), then you can use all function in a promise oriented way. All functions (except of version and time) are returning a promise, that you can consume:

const si = require('systeminformation');

si.cpu()
  .then(data => {
    console.log('CPU Information:');
    console.log('- manufucturer: ' + data.manufacturer);
    console.log('- brand: ' + data.brand);
    console.log('- speed: ' + data.speed);
    console.log('- cores: ' + data.cores);
    console.log('- physical cores: ' + data.physicalCores);
    console.log('...');
  })
  .catch(error => console.error(error));

Async / Await

Using async / await (available since node v7.6)

Since node v7.6 you can also use the async / await pattern. The above example would then look like this:

const si = require('systeminformation');

async function cpuData() {
  try {
    const data = await si.cpu();
    console.log('CPU Information:');
    console.log('- manufucturer: ' + data.manufacturer);
    console.log('- brand: ' + data.brand);
    console.log('- speed: ' + data.speed);
    console.log('- cores: ' + data.cores);
    console.log('- physical cores: ' + data.physicalCores);
    console.log('...');
  } catch (e) {
    console.log(e)
  }
}

Known Issues

macOS - Temperature Sensor

To be able to measure temperature on macOS I created a little additional package. Due to some difficulties in NPM with optionalDependencies I unfortunately was getting unexpected warnings on other platforms. So I decided to drop this optional dependency for macOS - so by default, you will not get correct values.

But if you need to detect macOS temperature just run the following additional installation command:

$ npm install osx-temperature-sensor --save

systeminformation will then detect this additional library and return the temperature when calling systeminformations standard function cpuTemperature()

Windows Temperature, Battery, …

wmic - which is used to determine temperature and battery sometimes needs to be run with admin privileges. So if you do not get any values, try to run it again with according privileges. If you still do not get any values, your system might not support this feature. In some cases we also discovered that wmic returned incorrect temperature values.

Linux Temperature

In some cases you need to install the Linux sensors package to be able to measure temperature e.g. on DEBIAN based systems by running sudo apt-get install lm-sensors

Linux S.M.A.R.T. Status

To be able to detect S.M.A.R.T. status on Linux you need to install smartmontools. On DEBIAN based Linux distributions you can install it by running sudo apt-get install smartmontools

*: Additional Notes

In fsStats(), disksIO() and networkStats() the results / sec. values (rx_sec, IOPS, …) are calculated correctly beginning with the second call of the function. It is determined by calculating the difference of transferred bytes / IOs divided by the time between two calls of the function.

The first time you are calling one of these functions, you will get -1 for transfer rates. The second time, you should then get statistics based on the time between the two calls …

So basically, if you e.g. need a value for network stats every second, your code should look like this:

const si = require('systeminformation');

setInterval(function() {
  si.networkStats().then(data => {
    console.log(data);
  })
}, 1000)

Beginning with the second call, you get network transfer values per second.
