# OS

> Stability: 2 - Stable

The `os` module provides operating system-related utility methods and
properties. It can be accessed using:

```js
const os = require('os');
```

## `os.EOL`

* {string}

The operating system-specific end-of-line marker.

* `\n` on POSIX
* `\r\n` on Windows

## `os.arch()`

* Returns: {string}

Returns the operating system CPU architecture for which the Node.js binary was
compiled. Possible values are `'arm'`, `'arm64'`, `'ia32'`, `'mips'`,
`'mipsel'`, `'ppc'`, `'ppc64'`, `'s390'`, `'s390x'`, `'x32'`, and `'x64'`.

The return value is equivalent to [`process.arch`][].

## `os.constants`

* {Object}

Contains commonly used operating system-specific constants for error codes,
process signals, and so on. The specific constants defined are described in
[OS constants](#os_os_constants_1).

## `os.cpus()`

* Returns: {Object[]}

Returns an array of objects containing information about each logical CPU core.

The properties included on each object include:

* `model` {string}
* `speed` {number} (in MHz)
* `times` {Object}
  * `user` {number} The number of milliseconds the CPU has spent in user mode.
  * `nice` {number} The number of milliseconds the CPU has spent in nice mode.
  * `sys` {number} The number of milliseconds the CPU has spent in sys mode.
  * `idle` {number} The number of milliseconds the CPU has spent in idle mode.
  * `irq` {number} The number of milliseconds the CPU has spent in irq mode.

```js
[
  {
    model: 'Intel(R) Core(TM) i7 CPU         860  @ 2.80GHz',
    speed: 2926,
    times: {
      user: 252020,
      nice: 0,
      sys: 30340,
      idle: 1070356870,
      irq: 0
    }
  },
  {
    model: 'Intel(R) Core(TM) i7 CPU         860  @ 2.80GHz',
    speed: 2926,
    times: {
      user: 306960,
      nice: 0,
      sys: 26980,
      idle: 1071569080,
      irq: 0
    }
  },
  {
    model: 'Intel(R) Core(TM) i7 CPU         860  @ 2.80GHz',
    speed: 2926,
    times: {
      user: 248450,
      nice: 0,
      sys: 21750,
      idle: 1070919370,
      irq: 0
    }
  },
  {
    model: 'Intel(R) Core(TM) i7 CPU         860  @ 2.80GHz',
    speed: 2926,
    times: {
      user: 256880,
      nice: 0,
      sys: 19430,
      idle: 1070905480,
      irq: 20
    }
  },
]
```

`nice` values are POSIX-only. On Windows, the `nice` values of all processors
are always 0.

## `os.devNull`

* {string}

The platform-specific file path of the null device.

* `\\.\nul` on Windows
* `/dev/null` on POSIX

## `os.endianness()`

* Returns: {string}

Returns a string identifying the endianness of the CPU for which the Node.js
binary was compiled.

Possible values are `'BE'` for big endian and `'LE'` for little endian.

## `os.freemem()`

* Returns: {integer}

Returns the amount of free system memory in bytes as an integer.

## `os.getPriority([pid])`

* `pid` {integer} The process ID to retrieve scheduling priority for.
  **Default** `0`.
* Returns: {integer}

Returns the scheduling priority for the process specified by `pid`. If `pid` is
not provided or is `0`, the priority of the current process is returned.

## `os.homedir()`

* Returns: {string}

Returns the string path of the current user's home directory.

On POSIX, it uses the `$HOME` environment variable if defined. Otherwise it
uses the [effective UID][EUID] to look up the user's home directory.

On Windows, it uses the `USERPROFILE` environment variable if defined.
Otherwise it uses the path to the profile directory of the current user.

## `os.hostname()`

* Returns: {string}

Returns the host name of the operating system as a string.

## `os.loadavg()`

* Returns: {number[]}

Returns an array containing the 1, 5, and 15 minute load averages.

The load average is a measure of system activity calculated by the operating
system and expressed as a fractional number.

The load average is a Unix-specific concept. On Windows, the return value is
always `[0, 0, 0]`.

## `os.networkInterfaces()`

* Returns: {Object}

Returns an object containing network interfaces that have been assigned a
network address.

Each key on the returned object identifies a network interface. The associated
value is an array of objects that each describe an assigned network address.

The properties available on the assigned network address object include:

* `address` {string} The assigned IPv4 or IPv6 address
* `netmask` {string} The IPv4 or IPv6 network mask
* `family` {string} Either `IPv4` or `IPv6`
* `mac` {string} The MAC address of the network interface
* `internal` {boolean} `true` if the network interface is a loopback or
  similar interface that is not remotely accessible; otherwise `false`
* `scopeid` {number} The numeric IPv6 scope ID (only specified when `family`
  is `IPv6`)
* `cidr` {string} The assigned IPv4 or IPv6 address with the routing prefix
  in CIDR notation. If the `netmask` is invalid, this property is set
  to `null`.

  lo: [
    {
      address: '127.0.0.1',

    }
  ]
}
```

## `os.platform()`

* Returns: {string}

Returns a string identifying the operating system platform. The value is set
at compile time. Possible values are `'aix'`, `'darwin'`, `'freebsd'`,
`'linux'`, `'openbsd'`, `'sunos'`, and `'win32'`.

The return value is equivalent to [`process.platform`][].

The value `'android'` may also be returned if Node.js is built on the Android
operating system. [Android support is experimental][Android building].

## `os.release()`

* Returns: {string}

Returns the operating system as a string.

On POSIX systems, the operating system release is determined by calling
[`uname(3)`][]. On Windows, `GetVersionExW()` is used. See
<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Uname#Examples> for more information.

## `os.setPriority([pid, ]priority)`

* `pid` {integer} The process ID to set scheduling priority for.
  **Default** `0`.
* `priority` {integer} The scheduling priority to assign to the process.

Attempts to set the scheduling priority for the process specified by `pid`. If
`pid` is not provided or is `0`, the process ID of the current process is used.

The `priority` input must be an integer between `-20` (high priority) and `19`
(low priority). Due to differences between Unix priority levels and Windows
priority classes, `priority` is mapped to one of six priority constants in
`os.constants.priority`. When retrieving a process priority level, this range
mapping may cause the return value to be slightly different on Windows. To avoid
confusion, set `priority` to one of the priority constants.

On Windows, setting priority to `PRIORITY_HIGHEST` requires elevated user
privileges. Otherwise the set priority will be silently reduced to
`PRIORITY_HIGH`.

## `os.tmpdir()`

* Returns: {string}

Returns the operating system's default directory for temporary files as a
string.

## `os.totalmem()`

* Returns: {integer}

Returns the total amount of system memory in bytes as an integer.

## `os.type()`

* Returns: {string}

Returns the operating system name as returned by [`uname(3)`][]. For example, it
returns `'Linux'` on Linux, `'Darwin'` on macOS, and `'Windows_NT'` on Windows.

See <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Uname#Examples> for additional information
about the output of running [`uname(3)`][] on various operating systems.

## `os.uptime()`

* Returns: {integer}

Returns the system uptime in number of seconds.

## `os.userInfo([options])`

* `options` {Object}
  * `encoding` {string} Character encoding used to interpret resulting strings.
    If `encoding` is set to `'buffer'`, the `username`, `shell`, and `homedir`
    values will be `Buffer` instances. **Default:** `'utf8'`.
* Returns: {Object}

Returns information about the currently effective user. On POSIX platforms,
this is typically a subset of the password file. The returned object includes
the `username`, `uid`, `gid`, `shell`, and `homedir`. On Windows, the `uid` and
`gid` fields are `-1`, and `shell` is `null`.

The value of `homedir` returned by `os.userInfo()` is provided by the operating
system. This differs from the result of `os.homedir()`, which queries
environment variables for the home directory before falling back to the
operating system response.

Throws a [`SystemError`][] if a user has no `username` or `homedir`.

## `os.version()`

* Returns {string}

Returns a string identifying the kernel version.

On POSIX systems, the operating system release is determined by calling
[`uname(3)`][]. On Windows, `RtlGetVersion()` is used, and if it is not
available, `GetVersionExW()` will be used. See
<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Uname#Examples> for more information.

### dlopen constants

If available on the operating system, the following constants
are exported in `os.constants.dlopen`. See dlopen(3) for detailed
information.

<table>
  <tr>
    <th>Constant</th>
    <th>Description</th>
  </tr>
  <tr>
    <td><code>RTLD_LAZY</code></td>
    <td>Perform lazy binding. Node.js sets this flag by default.</td>
  </tr>
  <tr>
    <td><code>RTLD_NOW</code></td>
    <td>Resolve all undefined symbols in the library before dlopen(3)
    returns.</td>
  </tr>
  <tr>
    <td><code>RTLD_GLOBAL</code></td>
    <td>Symbols defined by the library will be made available for symbol
    resolution of subsequently loaded libraries.</td>
  </tr>
  <tr>
    <td><code>RTLD_LOCAL</code></td>
    <td>The converse of <code>RTLD_GLOBAL</code>. This is the default behavior
    if neither flag is specified.</td>
  </tr>
  <tr>
    <td><code>RTLD_DEEPBIND</code></td>
    <td>Make a self-contained library use its own symbols in preference to
    symbols from previously loaded libraries.</td>

    <code>19</code> on all other platforms.</td>
  </tr>
  <tr>
    <td><code>PRIORITY_BELOW_NORMAL</code></td>
    <td>The process scheduling priority above <code>PRIORITY_LOW</code> and
    below <code>PRIORITY_NORMAL</code>. This corresponds to
    <code>BELOW_NORMAL_PRIORITY_CLASS</code> on Windows, and a nice value of
    <code>10</code> on all other platforms.</td>
  </tr>
  <tr>
    <td><code>PRIORITY_NORMAL</code></td>
    <td>The default process scheduling priority. This corresponds to
