ExFacts

Installation

mix.exs

Add ExFacts to your list of dependencies

def deps do
  [{:exfacts, "~> 0.1.2"}]
end

Usage

In general you can use the get_external_facts/0 or get_system_facts/0. Those function will return JSON data with all fields normalized and containing the data in them.

defmodule SomeModule do
  use ExFacts

  def some_function do
    data = get_external_facts()
  end

  def other_function do
    data = get_system_facts()
  end
end

But you can also short-circuit to only the functions that return the information that you are looking for. Aliases have been setup for each of the main areas to help avoid namespacing issues.

• ExCPU

• ExDisk

• ExHost

• ExLoad

• ExMem

• ExNet

defmodule SomeModule do
  use ExFacts

  def some_function do
    cpu_data = ExCPU.cpu_info()
  end

  def other_function do
    host_data = ExHost.host_info()
  end
end
