Functions

func CreateQuery

func CreateQuery(src interface{}, where string) string

CreateQuery returns a WQL query string that queries all columns of src. where is an optional string that is appended to the query, to be used with WHERE clauses. In such a case, the "WHERE" string should appear at the beginning.

func Query

func Query(query string, dst interface{}, connectServerArgs ...interface{}) error

Query runs the WQL query and appends the values to dst.

dst must have type *[]S or *[]*S, for some struct type S. Fields selected in the query must have the same name in dst. Supported types are all signed and unsigned integers, time.Time, string, bool, or a pointer to one of those. Array types are not supported.

By default, the local machine and default namespace are used. These can be changed using connectServerArgs. See http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa393720.aspx for details.

Query is a wrapper around DefaultClient.Query.

func QueryNamespace

func QueryNamespace(query string, dst interface{}, namespace string) error

QueryNamespace invokes Query with the given namespace on the local machine.

Types

type Client

type Client struct {
	// NonePtrZero specifies if nil values for fields which aren't pointers
	// should be returned as the field types zero value.
	//
	// Setting this to true allows stucts without pointer fields to be used
	// without the risk failure should a nil value returned from WMI.
	NonePtrZero bool

	// PtrNil specifies if nil values for pointer fields should be returned
	// as nil.
	//
	// Setting this to true will set pointer fields to nil where WMI
	// returned nil, otherwise the types zero value will be returned.
	PtrNil bool

	// AllowMissingFields specifies that struct fields not present in the
	// query result should not result in an error.
	//
	// Setting this to true allows custom queries to be used with full
	// struct definitions instead of having to define multiple structs.
	AllowMissingFields bool
}

A Client is an WMI query client.

Its zero value (DefaultClient) is a usable client.

func (*Client) Query

func (c *Client) Query(query string, dst interface{}, connectServerArgs ...interface{}) error

Query runs the WQL query and appends the values to dst.

dst must have type *[]S or *[]*S, for some struct type S. Fields selected in the query must have the same name in dst. Supported types are all signed and unsigned integers, time.Time, string, bool, or a pointer to one of those. Array types are not supported.

By default, the local machine and default namespace are used. These can be changed using connectServerArgs. See http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa393720.aspx for details.

type ErrFieldMismatch

type ErrFieldMismatch struct {
	StructType reflect.Type
	FieldName  string
	Reason     string
}

ErrFieldMismatch is returned when a field is to be loaded into a different type than the one it was stored from, or when a field is missing or unexported in the destination struct. StructType is the type of the struct pointed to by the destination argument.

func (*ErrFieldMismatch) Error

func (e *ErrFieldMismatch) Error() string
