JavaDoc
The following JavaDoc links are the primary interfaces used to access system and network information:
Navigate
If you have not already downloaded and installed the Pi4J library on the RaspberryPi, then view this page for instructions on where to download and how to install Pi4J:
Download & Install Pi4J
First, locate the SystemInfoExample.java source file in the samples folder of the Pi4J installation on the RaspberryPi.
You can use the following command on the Pi's console or SSH terminal to navigate to this path: cd /opt/pi4j/examples
Compile
Next, use the following command to compile this example program:
javac -classpath .:classes:/opt/pi4j/lib/'*' -d . SystemInfoExample.java
Execute
The following command will run this example program:
sudo java -classpath .:classes:/opt/pi4j/lib/'*' SystemInfoExample
