Statgrab - cross-platform access to statistics about the system

[bew]

(Mentioned by rkeene on IRC)

From the main website:

libstatgrab is a library that provides cross platform access to statistics about the system on which it's run. It's written in C and presents a selection of useful interfaces which can be used to access key system statistics.

The current list of statistics includes:

• CPU usage
• memory utilisation
• disk usage
• process counts
• network traffic
• disk I/O
• and more...

The current list of supported and tested platforms includes FreeBSD, Linux, NetBSD, OpenBSD, Solaris, DragonFly BSD, HP-UX and AIX. We are always happy to accept patches to extend support to other operating systems.

Hi, I'm doing porting gopsutil library to a crystal https://github.com/kodnaplakal/psutil.cr it's very similar like libstatgrab. Already done this metrics for Linux:

• CPU usage
• Memory usage
• Disk partitions
• Disk usage
• Disk I/O usage
• OS info
• OS load average
• Network I/O usage

Either one of those would be great. Especially if it also works on MacOS.

Yes, I am currently working on MacOS support

I'm working on a library right now for parsing the entirety of the /proc directory. It's functionality is limited so far, but I do plan on supporting everything in there. https://github.com/watzon/sysinfo.cr
