Linux System Stats Script

December 5, 2012

You could make life easier for yourself and do something like this:

de="$(echo ${DESKTOP_SESSION} | sed 's/^./\U&amp;/')"

That would assign the variable "de" with the desktop session value, with the first letter capitalized. ("Gnome", "Kde", "Xfce", etc).

If you wanted to be more advanced you could do something like this to save you having to update the script every time someone came out with a new DE (as long as the script handled the capitalization correctly):

GetDesktopEnvironmentVersion()
{
    case "${DESKTOP_SESSION}" in

        gnome)
            echo "$(gnome-session --version | awk {'print $2'})"
            return 0
            ;;

        kde)
            echo "$(kde-open -v | awk '/Platform/ {print $4}')"
            return 0
            ;;

    esac

    # Return 1 if the DE does not match a known DE we can get the version for.
    # This allows us to check the return code if we like.
    return 1
}

# Assume that any DE with a name shorter than 5 chars is an abbreviation. GNOME is an exception, since it should be capitalized still.
if [ ${#DESKTOP_SESSION} -le 4 ] || ${DESKTOP_SESSION} | grep -i "gnome" &amp;&gt; /dev/null; then
    de="$(echo ${DESKTOP_SESSION} | tr [:lower:] [:upper:])"
else
    de="$(echo ${DESKTOP_SESSION} | sed 's/^./\U&amp;/')"
fi
de="${de} $(GetDesktopEnvironmentVersion)"

`echo $de` would result in the following:

"Cinnamon"
"GNOME 3.6.2"
"KDE 4.0.0"
"XFCE"
"Openbox
"Unity"
"MATE"

With your stats-V0.8b.tar.gz version:

Running Openbox

yeah some openbox sessions set the $DESKTOP_SESSION some dont

new version hopefully will pick up unity and cinnamon

http://www.haggistech.co.uk/stats-V0.8.1.tar.gz

work to go to now :(

December 5, 2012

Xfce, Mate, Cinnamon, KDE and Openbox all work :)

Have to head to bed now, so can't do screenshots of them all, and forgot to copy the outputs, will later. But all showed the right DE :)

@Majesticmerc - Well, that's a simpler way to do it lol

December 5, 2012

Thanks Guys

wsgrant i cant see ur pic at work will check when i get home

Majesticmerc: i will give that a try when i get home it would tidy up my code a lot :)

running your code i get this

not sure why though

I think I have discovered why checking $DESKTOP_SESSION works for some people but not others. It has nothing to do with Debian, Ubuntu, Fedora, Openbox, Mate, etc. It is reliant on your display manager. I am using Slim on my laptop, which doesn't set $DESKTOP_SESSION. I noticed that switching to LightDM or GDM and logging into Openbox actually sets the $DESKTOP_SESSION to openbox.

Summary: Detecting desktop environment based on $DESKTOP_SESSION is unreliable at best.

Ok so Gnome, KDE, and XFCE are fine as they use other methods

just need to work out

Unity

Mate

Cinnamon

LXDE

[/CODE]


Because I borked up my code &gt;.&lt;.
I missed an echo command, the if statement should have read: 
[code]
if [ ${#DESKTOP_SESSION} -le 4 ] || echo ${DESKTOP_SESSION} | grep -i "gnome" &amp;&gt; /dev/null; then

Doesn't really matter if DESKTOP_SESSION is unreliable though :(

December 6, 2012

I refactored stats 0.8.1 and developed a method to make desktop environment detection much more reliable. The new version is attached to this post, and the patch I created against 0.8.1 is below.

[b]PS:[/b] Attaching the patched version of the script in a zip file was not my choice. Apparently Neowin won't let me attach anything with the .tar.gz or .tar.lzma extension.

December 6, 2012

I screwed up. I created a Linux Mint 14 virtual machine on my more powerful machine and installed every desktop environment detected by my last patch for testing purposes. Although I tested the desktop environment dection aspect of the script fairly thoroughly, I didn't test the logos I added at all.

When I tested this script on my latop a few minutes ago, I discovered that the Debian logo didn't print correctly. Then I tested the other logos and discovered that some of them failed to print correctly too. Additionally, apparently the processor information in /proc/cpuinfo is not terribly similar between CPU architectures. It looks close to the same for most Intel and AMD CPUs, but it is completely different on the PowerPC and ARM CPUs that I tested. Therefore I wrote a new version of my previous patch that solves both of those issues.

The patch posted below was created against stats 0.8.1, not my previously patched version. The complete new version of the script is attached to this post.

The output of the script on my laptop looks something like this (the logo looks a little messed up because its not in a monospaced font):

cool i will have a look at this later

i really need to learn how to regex properly

i.e.


grep -E '([/][A-Za-z]+)*[/]{0,1}kdeinit')
[/CODE]

December 6, 2012

might add a refresh function in there too so if you run the script using

./stats.sh -r

then it will run and refresh the info every 5 seconds or so

i.e.
grep -E '([/][A-Za-z]+)*[/]{0,1}kdeinit')
[/CODE]
Regular expressions are [i]very[/i] useful. The one you quoted is checking for any string containing [i]kdeinit[/i] with an optional absolute path in front of it. Although regex is slightly different between the various tools/languages that implement it, it is mostly the same. My favourite regex reference page is here, but you should really read the grep man page for the specific implementation in grep.

[b]PS:[/b] You are welcome to use the patched script I posted above as-is. I assigned copyright to you.

Thanks

i will be adding credits type thing in for all the help you guys have given me while this makes its way to a public release

i am working on Top processes now

really enjoying doing this

I noticed a couple posts up that you are considering adding command line switches to control the script's behavior. A good way to accept switches in basically any order or combination in BASH can be done using a switch case like in the code snippet below.


# Parse the given arguments.
while [ $# -gt 1 ]; do
	case $1 in
		--noverify)
			noverify=1
			;;
		--format)
			format=1
			;;
		--verbose|-v)
			verbose=1
			;;
		--help)
			usage
			exit 0
			;;
		*)
			echo "Invalid Argument -- $1"
			usage
			exit 1
			;;
	esac
	shift
done

# Get the action to take.
action="$1"
[ -z "$action" ] && action='default'

# Execute the function associated with that action.
eval $action
[/CODE]

If you don't want to use an eval system or have any required arguments, check that [i]$#[/i] is greater than 0 instead of 1 and don't use any of the code I posted after the loop exits. I hope that helps a little; I know I had trouble writing a good argument parser when I first started with BASH.

Not touched this for a wee while, not really touched anything computer related actually for a while lol

will get back into it tonight though

anyone still using it?

August 28, 2013

I know there are a lot of scripts out there to do this sort of thing on Linux, but I wanted to support another Neowin member so I have been using it. If you look at the screenshots I posted in this thread a couple days ago, you might notice that I used your script in the second one. Keep up the great work!

P.S. Haggis, if you get the point where you are very comfortable with the stability and features of your script, I am willing to contribute Debian packaging so you can provide .deb files for Debian and Ubuntu. This is an open offer. Don't hesitate to ask me, even if you don't reach that point for months.

Still using it but having to modify it a bit for Linux Mint 15.

The 'screenfetch' on Mint's forums lacks in appearances so I much prefer yours.

Awesome

I fixed the "No LSB Modules are available"

Detection for Cinnamon (Commented out DESKTOP_ENVIRONMENT line before the if..elseif)

Changed from ID to DISTRIB_ID to pick up Mint rather than Ubuntu

Some colour formatting for the mint logo

Changed import to gnome-screenshot as import doesn't handle transparency in Cinnamon and isn't a default package in Ubuntu/Mint

I had to install standard unix tools then run it via "bash stats.sh" to fix that as it defaults to dash for sh on Ubuntu.
