## Background
I love Python and [psutil](https://github.com/giampaolo/psutil) but bundling a Python app is a pain.
Having a psutil library in Nim seemed like the logical next step.
## Install
- ` nimble install psutil`
This package works Ok as of Nim `1.0.6`. Pull requests welcome.
## Usage
Just some basic usage below until I get the example apps working and can mirror
what's in psutil's documentation. Take a look at the scripts folder for some
basic examples as well.
```nim
import psutil
echo net_if_addrs()
echo boot_time()
echo users()
```
## Troubleshooting
If you are running on CentOS or RedHat you may or may not find errors with the Network related functions,
complaining about missing Linux C Headers `sockios.h` to Compile,
this is not a Bug on the code but that Distro not having development libraries or having too old versions of it.
You can try installing the package `kernel-headers` for CentOS/RedHat,
to see if that fixes the problem about missing libraries.
If you know how to fix that Distro-specific detail feel free to send pull requests.
The failing functions are:
```nim
net_io_counters()
per_nic_net_io_counters()
net_if_stats()
net_connections()
```
You can workaround by using [Distros module](https://nim-lang.org/docs/distros.html#Distribution):
```nim
when not detectOs(CentOS):
# Do something here with the Network functions.
echo net_io_counters()
echo per_nic_net_io_counters()
echo net_if_stats()
echo net_connections()
```

## Contribute
PRs accepted! Adding a single function to any platform is a huge help and can usually be done with less than an hour of work.
