acpiclient v0.0.1

acpiclient

NodeJS wrapper around http://sourceforge.net/projects/acpiclient/ It outputs battery, temperature, adapter and cooling information as output of acpi command.

Requirements

You need to install acpi. It is present on all modern Linux distributions, at least at official repos

  $ su -c 'yum install acpi'
  $ su -c 'apt-get install acpi'
  $ su -c 'zypper install acpi'
  $ su -c 'emerge [-a] acpi'

Example

    var acpiclient = require('acpiclient');
    
    acpiclient(function (error, data) {
      if (error) {
        throw error;
      }
      console.log(data);
    });

Will output something like

    {
    "batteries": {
      "0": {
        "status": "Full",
        "charge": 100,
