Node JS, Read CPU temperature

I am currently working on a project where I want to read the temperature of my CPU but I do not know how to it properly without using external programs such as "CpuTemp" etcetera. According to some sources I should be able to use Node JS together with a package to read the CPU temperature. I managed to read total memory on my PC and uptime via the package "OS". Are there any package I can use to display the CPU temperature or should I do something else to read it?

I have been told I should use Node JS together with WMI, I dont know how to continue on that though.

Solution

  • Here you have a NPM package for CPU temp as well as other statistics: https://www.npmjs.com/package/systeminformation
    The package is well documented, and will tell you exactly what to do. Otherwhise, it's easy just to google the error codes or other problems that you might encounter.
