DESCRIPTION

With this module you can gather hardware and software information.

All these functions will not be reported. These functions don't modify anything.

SYNOPSIS

operating_system_is("SuSE");

EXPORTED FUNCTIONS

get_operating_system

Will return the current operating system name.

 task "get-os", "server01", sub {
   say get_operating_system();
 };

Aliased by operating_system().

operating_system

Alias for get_operating_system()

get_system_information

Will return a hash of all system information. These Information will be also used by the template function.

dump_system_information

This function dumps all known system information on stdout.

operating_system_is($string)

Will return 1 if the operating system is $string.

 task "is_it_suse", "server01", sub {
   if( operating_system_is("SuSE") ) {
     say "This is a SuSE system.";
   }
 };

operating_system_version()

Will return the os release number as an integer. For example, it will convert 5.10 to 510, 10.04 to 1004 or 6.0.3 to 603.

 task "prepare", "server01", sub {
   if( operating_system_version() >= 510 ) {
     say "OS Release is higher or equal to 510";
   }
 };

operating_system_release()

Will return the os release number as is.

network_interfaces

Return an HashRef of all the networkinterfaces and their configuration.

 task "get_network_information", "server01", sub {
   my $net_info = network_interfaces();
 };

You can iterate over the devices as follow

 my $net_info = network_interfaces();
 for my $dev ( keys %{ $net_info } ) {
   say "$dev has the ip: " . $net_info->{$dev}->{"ip"} . " and the netmask: " . $net_info->{$dev}->{"netmask"};
 }

 task "get_memory_information", "server01", sub {
   my $memory = memory();
   say "Total:  " . $memory->{"total"};
   say "Free:   " . $memory->{"free"};
   say "Used:   " . $memory->{"used"};
   say "Cached:  " . $memory->{"cached"};
   say "Buffers: " . $memory->{"buffers"};
 };
