SYNOPSIS

9           use System::Info;
10
11           my $si = System::Info->new;
12
13           printf "Hostname:              %s\n", $si->host;
14           printf "Number of CPU's:       %s\n", $si->ncpu;
15           printf "Processor type:        %s\n", $si->cpu_type; # short
16           printf "Processor description: %s\n", $si->cpu;      # long
17           printf "OS and version:        %s\n", $si->os;

DESCRIPTION

29       System::Info tries to present system-related information, like number
30       of CPU's, architecture, OS and release related information in a system-
31       independent way.  This releases the user of this module of the need to
32       know if the information comes from Windows, Linux, HP-UX, AIX, Solaris,
33       Irix, or VMS, and if the architecture is i386, x64, pa-risc2, or arm.
34

METHODS

36   System::Info->new
37       Factory method, with fallback to the information in "POSIX::uname ()".
38
39   sysinfo
40       "sysinfo" returns a string with "host", "os" and "cpu_type".
41
42   sysinfo_hash
43       "sysinfo_hash" returns a hash reference with basic system information,
44       like:
45
46         { cpu       => 'Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-6820HQ CPU @ 2.70GHz (GenuineIntel 2700MHz)',
47           cpu_count => '1 [8 cores]',
48           cpu_cores => 8,
49           cpu_type  => 'x86_64',
50           distro    => 'openSUSE Tumbleweed 20171030',
51           hostname  => 'foobar',
52           os        => 'linux - 4.13.10-1-default [openSUSE Tumbleweed 20171030]',
53           osname    => 'Linux',
54           osvers    => '4.13.10-1-default'
55           }
56
57   si_uname (@args)
58       This class gathers most of the uname(1) info, make a comparable
59       version. Takes almost the same arguments:
60
61           a for all (can be omitted)
62           n for nodename
63           s for os name and version
64           m for cpu name
65           c for cpu count
66           p for cpu_type
