A simple cross-platform way to get information about the currently running system.

Examples

This simple example:

// examples/ex.rs
// * use `cargo run --example ex` to execute this example

// spell-checker:ignore (API) nodename osname sysname

use platform_info::*;

fn main() {
    let info = PlatformInfo::new().expect("Unable to determine platform info");
    // println!("info={:#?}", info);

    println!("{}", info.sysname().to_string_lossy());
    println!("{}", info.nodename().to_string_lossy());
    println!("{}", info.release().to_string_lossy());
    println!("{}", info.version().to_string_lossy());
    println!("{}", info.machine().to_string_lossy());
    println!("{}", info.osname().to_string_lossy());
}

should display something like:

Linux
hostname
5.10.0-8-amd64
#1 SMP Debian 5.10.46-4 (2021-08-03)
x86_64
GNU/Linux

Using cargo run --example ex will build and execute this example code.
