|
## Developer information
|
|
**Integrate the library in own application**
|
|
1. Add the [LibreHardwareMonitorLib](https://www.nuget.org/packages/LibreHardwareMonitorLib/) NuGet package to your application.
|
|
2. Use the sample code below.
|
|
|
|
|
|
**Sample code**
|
|
```c#
|
|
public class UpdateVisitor : IVisitor
|
|
{
|
|
public void VisitComputer(IComputer computer)
|
|
{
|
|
computer.Traverse(this);
|
|
}
|
|
public void VisitHardware(IHardware hardware)
|
|
{
|
|
hardware.Update();
|
|
foreach (IHardware subHardware in hardware.SubHardware) subHardware.Accept(this);
|
|
}
|
|
public void VisitSensor(ISensor sensor) { }
|
|
public void VisitParameter(IParameter parameter) { }
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
public void Monitor()
|
|
{
|
|
Computer computer = new Computer
|
|
{
|
|
IsCpuEnabled = true,
|
|
IsGpuEnabled = true,
|
|
IsMemoryEnabled = true,
|
|
IsMotherboardEnabled = true,
|
|
IsControllerEnabled = true,
|
|
IsNetworkEnabled = true,
|
|
IsStorageEnabled = true
|
|
};
|
|
|
|
computer.Open();
|
|
computer.Accept(new UpdateVisitor());
|
|
|
|
foreach (IHardware hardware in computer.Hardware)
|
|
{
|
|
Console.WriteLine("Hardware: {0}", hardware.Name);
|
|
|
|
foreach (IHardware subhardware in hardware.SubHardware)
|
|
{
|
|
Console.WriteLine("\tSubhardware: {0}", subhardware.Name);
|
|
|
|
foreach (ISensor sensor in subhardware.Sensors)
|
|
{
|
|
Console.WriteLine("\t\tSensor: {0}, value: {1}", sensor.Name, sensor.Value);
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
foreach (ISensor sensor in hardware.Sensors)
|
|
{
|
|
Console.WriteLine("\tSensor: {0}, value: {1}", sensor.Name, sensor.Value);
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
computer.Close();
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
**Administrator rights**

|
|
|
Some sensors require administrator privileges to access the data. Restart your IDE with admin privileges, or add an [app.manifest](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/win32/sbscs/application-manifests) file to your project with requestedExecutionLevel on requireAdministrator.
