Hardware monitoring API discussion

[rocksdanister]

Lets discuss about the upcoming Hardware monitor api #152

Currently these are the supported data:

(More data will be added as this discussion continues.)

The data will be sent in JSON format, to read it in javascript:

function livelySystemInformation(data)
{
    var obj = JSON.parse(data);
    console.log(obj.NameCpu + " " + obj.CurrentCpu);
    console.log(obj.NameGpu + " " + obj.CurrentGpu3D);
    console.log("RAM(Total): " + obj.TotalRam);
    console.log("RAM(Free): " + obj.CurrentRamAvail);
    console.log("NETDOWN(MB/s): " + obj.CurrentNetDown/(1024*1024));
    console.log("NETUP: " + obj.CurrentNetUp);
}

Feedback and suggestions are welcome!

Would it be possible to return the actual in use ram, rather than the committed one? I have combined this wallpaper, with my custom laptop model and the wallpaper "The Spirit" and this is the last remaining challenge.

that looks beautiful.

As for the memory, didn't think about that. The API is in need of an update to support multiple gpu and network cards, will look into it.
