Theory

PySysInfo standardizes OS-specific discovery into a shared HardwareInfo model. Each platform manager wraps a set of fetch_* helpers that pull from native sources and populate Pydantic models for CPU, memory, storage, and graphics.

Platform data sources

• Linux: reads system facts from the sysfs pseudo file system via fetch_* helpers under pysysinfo.dumps.linux.

• Windows: queries the Registry and WMI through the helpers in pysysinfo.dumps.windows.

• macOS: uses sysctl and IORegistry via helpers in pysysinfo.dumps.mac.

Per-component collection (placeholder)

The sections below outline where data comes from per component and platform. Detailed prose will follow; placeholder text is provided for now.

CPU

Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit. Linux managers read processor facts from sysfs, Windows relies on WMI and Registry keys, and macOS uses sysctl output.

Memory

Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit. Memory discovery walks DIMM slots and capacity details using platform-native tools.

Storage

Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit. Storage discovery aggregates block devices and metadata from each platform.

Graphics

Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit. Graphics adapters and VRAM sizing are gathered from the GPU helpers per platform.
