> Terminal platform query methods for detecting different operating systems and their properties.
**TTY::Platform** provides independent operating system detection component for [TTY](https://github.com/piotrmurach/tty) toolkit.
## Installation
Add this line to your application's Gemfile:
```ruby
gem 'tty-platform'
```
And then execute:
$ bundle
Or install it yourself as:
$ gem install tty-platform
## 1. Usage
With **TTY::Platform** you can find out the properties of your operating system by creating an instance:
```ruby
platform = TTY::Platform.new
```
To query for processor name use `cpu` method:
```ruby
platform.cpu # => 'x86_64'
```
A `nil` is returned if the value cannot be determined.
To get the system/OS name use `os` method:
```ruby
platform.os # => 'darwin'
```
A `nil` is returned if the value cannot be determined.
To get system's release version use `version` method:
```ruby
platform.version # => '10.6.1'
```
A `nil` is returned. Note that many platforms do not provide this information.
In addition, you can use more generic methods to check the type of operating system out of `windows`, `linux`, `mac` and `unix`:
```ruby
platform.windows? # => false
platform.unix? # => true
platform.linux? # => false
platform.mac? # => true
```
