Run the command with sudo to get maximum information. + +Additionally you can execute this on remote server by providing a Server IP or Host name, username, and password. Also you can use this tool to view other utilities captured outputs like demidecode as 'dmidecode.out', /proc/cpuinfo as 'cpuinfo', lspci -nnm as 'lspci-nnm.out', etc,. + +**Suggested Read :** +**(#)** [inxi - A Great Tool to Check Hardware Information on Linux][2] +**(#)** [Dmidecode - Easy Way To Get Linux System Hardware Information][3] +**(#)** [LSHW (Hardware Lister) - A Nifty Tool To Get A Hardware Information On Linux][4] +**(#)** [hwinfo (Hardware Info) - A Nifty Tool To Detect System Hardware Information On Linux][5] +**(#)** [How To Use lspci, lsscsi, lsusb, And lsblk To Get Linux System Devices Information][6] + +### How to Install python-hwinfo in Linux + +It can be installed through pip package to all major Linux distributions. In order to install python-hwinfo, Make sure your system have python and python-pip packages as a prerequisites. + +pip is a python module bundled with setuptools, it's one of the recommended tool for installing Python packages in Linux. + +For **`Debian/Ubuntu`** , use [APT-GET Command][7] or [APT Command][8] to install pip. +``` +$ sudo apt install python-pip + +``` + +For **`RHEL/CentOS`** , use [YUM Command][9] to install pip. +``` +$ sudo yum install python-pip python-devel + +``` + +For **`Fedora`** , use [DNF Command][10] to install pip. +``` +$ sudo dnf install python-pip + +``` + +For **`Arch Linux`** , use [Pacman Command][11] to install pip. +``` +$ sudo pacman -S python-pip + +``` + +For **`openSUSE`** , use [Zypper Command][12] to install pip. +``` +$ sudo zypper python-pip + +``` + +Finally, Run the following pip command to install python-hwinfo. +``` +$ sudo pip install python-hwinfo + +``` + +### How to Use python-hwinfo in local machine + +Execute the following command to inspect the hardware present on a local machine.
