WhoAmI

Retrieve the current user and environment.

Getting Started

Using the whoami crate is super easy! All of the exported items are simple functions with no parameters that return either a String or enum. The following example shows how to use all of the functions:

rust fn main() { print!( "--------------------------------------------------------------------------------\n\ user's full name (user): {}\n\ username (username): {}\n\ --------------------------------------------------------------------------------\n\ host's fancy name (host): {}\n\ hostname (hostname): {}\n\ --------------------------------------------------------------------------------\n\ platform (platform): {}\n\ operating system (os): {}\n\ desktop environment (env): {}\n\ --------------------------------------------------------------------------------\n\ ", whoami::user(), whoami::username(), whoami::host(), whoami::hostname(), whoami::platform(), whoami::os(), whoami::env(), ); }
