# tmutil-status

Get macOS Time Machine status as a JS object

## About

In macOS, the terminal command

```

tmutil status

```

will display the current status of Time Machine in the [NextSTEP property list dictionary format](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Property_list#NeXTSTEP). (See also: [Time Machine progress from the command line](https://apple.stackexchange.com/questions/162464/time-machine-progress-from-the-command-line).)

This package provides that information as a JavaScript object.

npm install tmutil-status

```

  try {

    console.log(data);

  }
