UserInfoNumeric

Overview

UserInfoNumeric is like UserInfo but parses uid/gid as ints when possible.

Part of the osutil package — Node.js analog: os.

Signature

func UserInfoNumeric() (username string, uid, gid int, err error)

Compare: Node.js · Standard Go · gox

Node.js

// Typical os pattern in Node.js

Standard Go

// Use the underlying stdlib or driver directly.
// See package overview for escape hatches.

gox

import "github.com/sahilkhaire/gox/osutil"

result, err := osutil.UserInfoNumeric()
if err != nil {
    return err
}

Example

import "github.com/sahilkhaire/gox/osutil"

result, err := osutil.UserInfoNumeric()
if err != nil {
    return err
}

Tips

Import github.com/sahilkhaire/gox/osutil and call UserInfoNumeric directly. See the comparison below for the standard library equivalent.

Standard library alternative

gox wraps the Go standard library or a trusted dependency with Node-familiar naming. You can use the underlying library directly — see the package overview for escape hatches.
