What is gopsutil?
gopsutil is a Go library that provides a cross-platform interface for retrieving system and process information, such as CPU, memory, disk, network, and process details. It is a port of the popular Python psutil library, enabling Go developers to access comprehensive system metrics across multiple operating systems without relying on cgo.
Go developers building system monitoring tools, performance dashboards, or infrastructure management applications that require detailed, cross-platform system and process metrics.
Developers choose gopsutil for its comprehensive, pure-Go implementation that avoids cgo dependencies, its extensive cross-platform support (Linux, Windows, macOS, BSD, etc.), and its familiar API modeled after the widely-used psutil library.
