API to check how much volume is emitted by other applications.
Using this library is as easy as one function call: require('process-volumes').getProcessVolumes()
This returns an array with objects, each object representing an individual process with attributes for the process ID, process name and their currently emitted volume.
The data returned by getProcessVolumes() looks like this:
[ { processId: 0, processName: '', peakVolume: 0 }, { processId: 1234, processName: 'example.exe', peakVolume: 0.75 }, { processId: 1834, processName: 'sample.exe', peakVolume: 0.13 } ]// This application prints all applications with their currently emitted // volume and process names. var processVolumes = require('process-volumes'); var processes = processVolumes.getProcessVolumes(); console.log('Current applications with their volumes:'); processes.forEach(function (process) { if (process.processName) { console.log(process.processName + ': ' + process.peakVolume); } else { console.log('(Unknown): ' + process.peakVolume); } });Currently only a Windows implementation has been created. Contributions for other operating systems are welcome :)
