Node bindings for sysconf(3), based on the sysconf module by Jen Andre Some enhancements and port to node >= 0.11 by Alexander Vassilev

This readme is also based on the original version, but reflects the new APIs

#include <unistd.h>
long sysconf(int name);

Installation

$ npm install sysconfx-next 

Usage

Example

 
var sysconf = require('sysconfx-next');
 
// get clock ticks
console.log(sysconf(sysconf._SC_CLK_TCK)); // 100
//Compatible with original API
console.log(sysconf.get(sysconf._SC_CLK_TCK)); // 100
//Also possible to use a string, however it must be known to this module (must be a property of sysconf)

//List the known constants and their values for this system //Note that the availability of each constant in the system's headers //is tested when the module is installed (compile time), and only supported ones are //available in JS. If you want to add a constant name to be recognized, you can add it //to the keys object console.log(JSON.stringify(sysconf.keys);
