#10: OS Module in Node.js: Methods, Properties, and Practical Examples

Hello what's up guys today in this video we will see os module in our nut j yes guy today's video is going to be very awesome because in yesterday's video we saw path module and today we are going to see os model basically Operating System So let's check it out, you can see guys, there are many methods here, I have already written them all here with definition and with usages, so its I will share the link with you in the description below, you must check it out, but now we will go directly to our code editor, but before that, I am sharing with you all these PPT notes, if you ever have any doubt, then guys video. You will find this second line in the description, okay, you can see here in the pay and comment section also, this is the access source code, you must check it out, so guys, I will go to my folder here. I will create a new file, okay, and its name will be guys o module dot js, okay, and I already have guys code, I am copy pasting because it is not a big deal, it is a simple code in which we will use its method. So see right, now this is the thing, I close it, open the terminal, clear it, so it's a node and then we have a mule, so now you will see that guys, I am getting an error. It is telling that reference error and OS is not defined so that you know anytime if you want to use any module basically if you want to use the methods of that module then we need to first import basically we Need to first require we have to gate it so cost o will be equal to you can see here we need to go with the Require and then we need to go with OS module. Okay, so simply in this way you have to get the module which is Guy OS. Now basically this is a constant variable of this OS, inside it all the properties and methods of our OS module come. Now it is your choice, as it is written here first, get the platform and user information, then platform and user if you want to form the platform and then your information. Like if you want to know the architecture of CPU then OD architecture is in short let's say how much free memory is there in your system then for that OD is basically short form of memory and the output it will give is in bytes then total How many memories are there in your system, so the total memory, you are seeing, this is the beauty of your modules, which are basically inbuilt modules in your nut, where each module has its own work. Given that the same way the O module deals with your operating system, guys, if we go further down, let's you know about the total up time of your system, it gives you the value in seconds and Then we need to go with the up time methods then simple if we go to home directory your home which is the directory basically we also saw in the path module what is the directory basically your which is the main folder You can get it here also, then host name and host name, I cannot show you the interface, network interface, all your IP addresses and many other things. You will get extra information in the network interface. If you want to know about your CPU, then guys o CP S my God means so many things are available to you by default. So you are seeing that when it comes to dealing with the server, these nuts are like that. Awesome and similarly, you will get what is your temporary directory and what is your operating system and if you use maxx.use then I clear it, now I will hit enter, so see I have so many data. Coming first, which platform is your ws2 user information, you will find its user ID, G ID, user name, which is your home directory, cell, it is visible to you in this manner and if you go here then The architecture of your CPU is visible, that is x64 free memory, this much is your total memory in bytes, again this is visible in bytes, you are getting the up time in seconds value, so here also you get the home directory. It was the same here also and the temporary directory is the same. Basically, you remember that if your system is lagging a little, then we delete whatever data is inside the temp directory, then this is yours. And then which operating system do you deal with and that is the guy with windows.net works, you will get so much data from it, you can't even imagine, which CP of your CPU are you using? But I guess by showing this you have got the idea that we just need to use the module and the inbuilt methods in it. We have to use them when we work in a project, then you can understand them in a better way. Be it how we can use it, how we can combine it with basically different modules, but for now, it is important to understand that yes, if anyone ever asks about the architecture of CPU, How can you find out in node then you can say we should use the o module and there is a method inside that and that is odd aa architecture wala in this way then you will get the value in this way and if you have all this data If you want to know, then go to Settings in the system and write system information or press control r and write system information, you will get everything there, okay so guys, this is it, that's all I know for this video today. The module which is there will be a little easy but yes, tomorrow's module which will be crypto, you are going to enjoy it and after that in the file system, finally we will create files, read them, delete them, that means it will be fun, it will be a code operation only then. Okay but today's video was simple but it is good, it feels good, it's all we know, so guys, how did you like the video, let me know in the comment section, I am providing the source code absolutely free, please like this video.
