Package Exports

detect-libc

This package does not declare an exports field, so the exports above have been automatically detected and optimized by JSPM instead. If any package subpath is missing, it is recommended to post an issue to the original package (detect-libc) to support the "exports" field. If that is not possible, create a JSPM override to customize the exports field for this package.

Readme

detect-libc

Node.js module to detect the C standard library (libc) implementation family and version in use on a given system.

Provides a value suitable for use with the --libc option of prebuild, prebuild-ci and prebuild-install, therefore allowing build and provision of pre-compiled binaries for musl-based Linux e.g. Alpine as well as glibc-based.

Currently supports libc detection on Linux (glibc, musl) and OS X (bsd).

Install

npm install detect-libc

Usage

detect-libc-family

Prints the libc family e.g. "glibc" or "musl" to stdout.

detect-libc-version

Prints the libc version e.g. "1.23" to stdout.

API

const { family, version } = require('detect-libc');

family is a String containing the system's libc family.
version is a String representing the system's libc version.
