  pc.memory(); //return  { free: number, total: number }

Hostname Return the computer's hostname

  pc.hostname(); //return { name: 'string' }

Uptime Return the system uptime in seconds

  pc.uptime() //return { time: 'string' }

tmpDir Returns the operating system's default directory for temp files.

pc.tmpDir() //return { location: 'string' }

NetworkInterfaces Get a list of network interfaces

  pc.networkInterfaces();
  /*

###The rest of the api return promises I like to define an error handler function to deal with my promises errors,

  var errorHandler = function(err){ console.log(err); throw err; };

cpu Returns an objects containing information about each CPU/core installed.

  pc.cpu().then(function(cpu){
    console.log(cpu);
  }, errorHandler);
  /*return {
      deviceId: 'string',
      status: number,
      currentClockSpeed: number,
      currentVoltage: number,
      loadPercentage: number,
      maxClockSpeed: number,
      name: 'string',
      numberOfCores: number,
      processorId: 'string'
    }*/

Public IP Return the public IP of the computer. Internet connection is required to call this method.

  pc.publicIP().then(function(ipInfo){
    console.log(ipInfo); //return { ip: ipaddress }
  }, errorHandler);

Drives Return an array of object with drive information.

  pc.drives().then(function(drives){
    console.log(drives);
    /*
      [{
        name: 'string',
        description: 'string',
        fileSystem: 'string',
        freeSpace: number,
        size: number,
        volumeName: 'string'
    }]
    */
  }, errorHandler);

Users Return an array of existing users in the computer.

  pc.users().then(function(users){
    console.log(users);
    /*
      [{
        name: 'string',
        accountType: number,
        domain: 'string',
        fullName: 'string',
        description: 'string',
        passwordChangeable: boolean,
        passwordExpires: boolean,
        passwordRequired: boolean,
        sid: 'string',
        status: 'string'
      }]
    */
  }, errorHandler);

Mac Return an array of nic info.

pc.mac().then(function(list){
  console.log(list);
  /*
  [{
    interfaceIndex: number,
    name: 'string',
    macAddress: 'macaddress',
    manufacturer: 'string',
    timeOfLastReset: time
  }]
  */
}, errorHandler);

Programs Return an array with all the applications installed in the computer.

pc.programs().then(function(list){
  console.log(list); // [{ name: 'string' }]
}, errorHandler);

Programs Return an array with all shares in the computer.

pc.share().then(function(list){
  console.log(list);
  /*
  [{
    name: 'string',
    caption: 'string',
    path: 'string',
    type: number
  }]
  */
}, errorHandler);

Useful Methods

getAll Retrieve all the information from the computer

  pc.getAll().then(function(everything){
    console.log(everything)
  }, errorHandler);

get Get an object with selected attributes

  pc.get(['mac, publicIP, users']).then(function(results){
    console.log(results); //{ mac: [{object}], publicIP: 'ipaddress', users: [{object}] }
  }, errorHandler)
