jHardware

Get crossplatform hardware details using pure Java.

Installation

To install jHardware you can add the dependecy to your software project management tool: http://mvnrepository.com/artifact/org.jhardware/jHardware/0.8.6

For example, for Maven you have just to add to your pom.xml:

 <dependency>
      <groupId>org.jhardware</groupId>
      <artifactId>jHardware</artifactId>
      <version>0.8.6</version>
 </dependency>

Instead, you can direct download the JAR file and add it to your classpath. http://central.maven.org/maven2/org/jhardware/jHardware/0.8.6/jHardware-0.8.6.jar

Basic Usage

To retrieve hardware data we only have to call an static method. This method will return a bean with all the basic and crossbrowser data and it will also include a map with all the data retrieved in the system.

Get CPU details

    ProcessorInfo info = HardwareInfo.getProcessorInfo();
    //Get named info
    System.out.println("Cache size: " + info.getCacheSize());        
    System.out.println("Family: " + info.getFamily());
    System.out.println("Speed (Mhz): " + info.getMhz());
    //[...]

    //Get all info from map
    Set<Entry<String, String>> fullInfos = info.getFullInfo().entrySet();
        
    for (final Entry<String, String> fullInfo : fullInfos) {
        System.out.println(fullInfo.getKey() + ": " + fullInfo.getValue());
    }

Same for other hardware components as Memory, Motherboard, Bios...

Another similar project with the same goal is OSHI (Linux, Mac and Windows compatible). Instead of pure Java it uses native code accessed by JNA.
