Ajouté en: v0.10.0
Code source: lib/os.js
The node:os module provides operating system-related utility methods and
properties. It can be accessed using:
JS
M os.EOL
Ajouté en: v0.7.8
The operating system-specific end-of-line marker.
\non POSIX\r\non Windows
M os.arch()
Ajouté en: v0.5.0
- Returns:
string
Returns the operating system CPU architecture for which the Node.js binary was
compiled. Possible values are 'arm', 'arm64', 'ia32', 'mips',
'mipsel', 'ppc', 'ppc64', 's390', 's390x', and 'x64'.
The return value is equivalent to process.arch.
M os.constants
Ajouté en: v6.3.0
Contains commonly used operating system-specific constants for error codes, process signals, and so on. The specific constants defined are described in OS constants.
M os.cpus()
Ajouté en: v0.3.3
- Returns: Object[]
Returns an array of objects containing information about each logical CPU core.
The properties included on each object include:
modelstringspeednumber(in MHz)timesObjectusernumberThe number of milliseconds the CPU has spent in user mode.nicenumberThe number of milliseconds the CPU has spent in nice mode.sysnumberThe number of milliseconds the CPU has spent in sys mode.idlenumberThe number of milliseconds the CPU has spent in idle mode.irqnumberThe number of milliseconds the CPU has spent in irq mode.
JS
nice values are POSIX-only. On Windows, the nice values of all processors
are always 0.
M os.devNull
Ajouté en: v16.3.0
The platform-specific file path of the null device.
\\.\nulon Windows/dev/nullon POSIX
M os.endianness()
Ajouté en: v0.9.4
- Returns:
string
Returns a string identifying the endianness of the CPU for which the Node.js binary was compiled.
Possible values are 'BE' for big endian and 'LE' for little endian.
M os.freemem()
Ajouté en: v0.3.3
- Returns:
integer
Returns the amount of free system memory in bytes as an integer.
M os.getPriority([pid])
Ajouté en: v10.10.0
Returns the scheduling priority for the process specified by pid. If pid is
not provided or is 0, the priority of the current process is returned.
M os.homedir()
Ajouté en: v2.3.0
- Returns:
string
Returns the string path of the current user's home directory.
On POSIX, it uses the $HOME environment variable if defined. Otherwise it
uses the effective UID to look up the user's home directory.
On Windows, it uses the USERPROFILE environment variable if defined.
Otherwise it uses the path to the profile directory of the current user.
M os.hostname()
Ajouté en: v0.3.3
- Returns:
string
Returns the host name of the operating system as a string.
M os.loadavg()
Ajouté en: v0.3.3
- Returns: number[]
Returns an array containing the 1, 5, and 15 minute load averages.
The load average is a measure of system activity calculated by the operating system and expressed as a fractional number.
The load average is a Unix-specific concept. On Windows, the return value is
always [0, 0, 0].
M os.networkInterfaces()
Ajouté en: v0.6.0
- Returns:
Object
Returns an object containing network interfaces that have been assigned a network address.
Each key on the returned object identifies a network interface. The associated value is an array of objects that each describe an assigned network address.
The properties available on the assigned network address object include:
addressstringThe assigned IPv4 or IPv6 addressnetmaskstringThe IPv4 or IPv6 network maskfamilystringEitherIPv4orIPv6macstringThe MAC address of the network interfaceinternalbooleantrueif the network interface is a loopback or similar interface that is not remotely accessible; otherwisefalsescopeidnumberThe numeric IPv6 scope ID (only specified whenfamilyisIPv6)cidrstringThe assigned IPv4 or IPv6 address with the routing prefix in CIDR notation. If thenetmaskis invalid, this property is set tonull.
JS
M os.platform()
Ajouté en: v0.5.0
- Returns:
string
Returns a string identifying the operating system platform for which
the Node.js binary was compiled. The value is set at compile time.
Possible values are 'aix', 'darwin', 'freebsd','linux',
'openbsd', 'sunos', and 'win32'.
The return value is equivalent to process.platform.
The value 'android' may also be returned if Node.js is built on the Android
operating system. Android support is experimental.
M os.release()
Ajouté en: v0.3.3
- Returns:
string
Returns the operating system as a string.
On POSIX systems, the operating system release is determined by calling
uname(3). On Windows, GetVersionExW() is used. See
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Uname#Examples for more information.
M os.setPriority([pid, ]priority)
Ajouté en: v10.10.0
pidintegerThe process ID to set scheduling priority for. Default:0.priorityintegerThe scheduling priority to assign to the process.
Attempts to set the scheduling priority for the process specified by pid. If
pid is not provided or is 0, the process ID of the current process is used.
The priority input must be an integer between -20 (high priority) and 19
(low priority). Due to differences between Unix priority levels and Windows
priority classes, priority is mapped to one of six priority constants in
os.constants.priority. When retrieving a process priority level, this range
mapping may cause the return value to be slightly different on Windows. To avoid
confusion, set priority to one of the priority constants.
On Windows, setting priority to PRIORITY_HIGHEST requires elevated user
privileges. Otherwise the set priority will be silently reduced to
PRIORITY_HIGH.
M os.tmpdir()
Historique
| Version | Changements |
|---|---|
| v2.0.0 | This function is now cross-platform consistent and no longer returns a path with a trailing slash on any platform. |
| v0.9.9 | Ajouté en: v0.9.9 |
- Returns:
string
Returns the operating system's default directory for temporary files as a string.
M os.totalmem()
Ajouté en: v0.3.3
- Returns:
integer
Returns the total amount of system memory in bytes as an integer.
M os.type()
Ajouté en: v0.3.3
- Returns:
string
Returns the operating system name as returned by uname(3). For example, it
returns 'Linux' on Linux, 'Darwin' on macOS, and 'Windows_NT' on Windows.
See https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Uname#Examples for additional information
about the output of running uname(3) on various operating systems.
M os.uptime()
Historique
| Version | Changements |
|---|---|
| v10.0.0 | The result of this function no longer contains a fraction component on Windows. |
| v0.3.3 | Ajouté en: v0.3.3 |
- Returns:
integer
Returns the system uptime in number of seconds.
M os.userInfo([options])
Ajouté en: v6.0.0
optionsObjectencodingstringCharacter encoding used to interpret resulting strings. Ifencodingis set to'buffer', theusername,shell, andhomedirvalues will beBufferinstances. Default:'utf8'.
- Returns:
Object
Returns information about the currently effective user. On POSIX platforms,
this is typically a subset of the password file. The returned object includes
the username, uid, gid, shell, and homedir. On Windows, the uid and
gid fields are -1, and shell is null.
The value of homedir returned by os.userInfo() is provided by the operating
system. This differs from the result of os.homedir(), which queries
environment variables for the home directory before falling back to the
operating system response.
Throws a SystemError if a user has no username or homedir.
M os.version()
Ajouté en: v13.11.0, v12.17.0
- Returns
string
Returns a string identifying the kernel version.
On POSIX systems, the operating system release is determined by calling
uname(3). On Windows, RtlGetVersion() is used, and if it is not
available, GetVersionExW() will be used. See
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Uname#Examples for more information.
M os.machine()
Ajouté en: v16.18.0
- Returns
string
Returns the machine type as a string, such as arm, aarch64, mips,
mips64, ppc64, ppc64le, s390, s390x, i386, i686, x86_64.
On POSIX systems, the machine type is determined by calling
uname(3). On Windows, RtlGetVersion() is used, and if it is not
available, GetVersionExW() will be used. See
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Uname#Examples for more information.
