Computer Status XML request

[Spenner11]

I was wondering if anyone had a command that returned the computers temperature status/ CPU usage?
EG Something along the lines of Command : Jarvis How are you feeling...
VC would then return an answer based on the values..?
EG.  Not too good sir (If the temperature was hot)
A little rushed (If CPU usage was high)
Or specific values with a "What's your status" command

Its something I would love to have a bash at myself but I haven't a clue where to start!
Third party software im guessing is definately going to be needed...

You can probably get the load % but not temp.

btw, XML exchange is intended as a place to share, not a place for requests.

@Spenner11 - Does the wmic command for getting CPU (computer) temperature as described here: http://www.tomshardware.com/faq/id-1924879/learn-computer-command-prompt-wmic.html work for you?

If it does, it will return a number in the thousands (temp is given as 0.1 * n Kelvin).

If that works, I can probably come up with something for you.

Nime5ter unfortunately that function doesn't work on my command prompt

@Spenner11 try http://openhardwaremonitor.org/ and see if it works ...
those things are highly variable in functionality from PC to another ... from software to another ...

this software has internal webserver that means VC can access info not only about the PC it is running on ... but all PCs you might have at home

In the meantime, if you just want a bit of fun, you can add the following to any of your existing python files in VC that are set to load when VC first loads (e.g. the weatherDay.py python file).:

Code: [Select]

import clr
clr.AddReference("System.Management")
from System.Management  import ManagementObject

def CPUload():

    usg = ManagementObject("Win32_PerfFormattedData_PerfOS_Processor.Name='_total'")
    load = str(usg["PercentProcessorTime"])
    return load
   
    #see http://www.ironpython.info/index.php?title=WMI_with_IronPython for other system info examples
If you're not using any python scripts yet, save the above as something like cpu.py in your \PY folder, and then create a VC command to load it (as per other examples on the forum).

Then, the following command provides a bit of CPU load chitchat -- mostly for entertainment value. Not particularly practical.

Code: [Select]
