pypsutil's Introduction

pypsutil

A partial reimplementation of psutil in pure Python using ctypes. Currently, only Linux, macOS, and the BSDs are supported, but Windows support is planned.

Example usage

pypsutil's API is very similar to psutil's:

>>> import pypsutil
>>> p = pypsutil.Process()
>>> p.pid
477967
>>> p
Process(pid=477967, name='python3', status='running', started='12:00:40')
>>> p.name()
'python3'
>>> p.exe()
'/usr/bin/python3.9'
>>> p.cwd()
'/tmp'
>>> p.cmdline()
['python3']
>>> p.terminal()
'/dev/pts/6'
>>> p.status()
<ProcessStatus.RUNNING: 'running'>
>>> p.ppid()
477771
>>> p.parent()
Process(pid=477771, name='bash', status='sleeping', started='12:00:33')

More information is available in the documentation.

pypsutil's Issues

'Process' object has no attribute "memory_info'

Can't get this to run on OSX, and cannot figure what i'm doing wrong, as this is how it works in psutil and it seems how it's covered in the docs too.

Python 3.6

Any chance we could get this targeting 3.6 as well? Trying to swap out psutil for pypsutil, but it's on a project that is aiming to support 3.6+ and not just 3.7+.
