The Linux Diagnostic Center (LDC) is a software tool that enables easy access to hardware information of computers and servers.
Along with the tool, the LDC also provides the libldc, a C library that allows the developer to obtain hardware information from third party projects.
To install, use:
$ make build installCommand example:
$ sudo ldc -o motherboard -pOutput:

The command line options overrides the options in the configuration file.
See file ldc/src/ldc.conf for default options.
LDC runs independent from the required dependencies, because plugins are executed individually. The absence of a dependency affects only the plugin that uses that dependency.
LDC is designed to work with:
- dmidecode
- libparted
- libc
