[SOLVED] Get specific System Info using python

Get specific System Info using python

I have to get system specific info as shown. I was checking out the platform module, but I was not able to get the information exactly as shown.

    “OS”: “Ubuntu 20.04",
    “Memory”: 232423423434,
    “system Time”: “15:02:13 +0530”,
    “Timezone”: “Asia/Kolkata”

Any standard libraries in Python which would give me the output as specified ?

Solution

here's something cross-platform, close to what you describe (collected from various sources):

from platform import uname
print(f"OS: {uname().system} {uname().release}, {uname().version}")

from psutil import virtual_memory # pip install psutil
print(f"Memory: {virtual_memory().total}")

from datetime import datetime
print(f"System Time: {datetime.now().astimezone().strftime('%H:%M:%S %z')}")

from tzlocal import get_localzone # pip install tzlocal
print(f"Timezone: {get_localzone()}")
