Doesn't work on Windows because "Wmic" removed.

[altannylmz]

Microsoft removed the WMIC tool from Windows 11 Dev builds and this command is not working.

path : node_modules\node-disk-info\src\utils\constants.ts line 9

"wmic logicaldisk get Caption,FreeSpace,Size,VolumeSerialNumber,Description /format:list"

I tried to contribute but I have doubts about what to use instead of wmic.

My solution :

getDisksInfo = () =>

new Promise(resolve =>
{
    let os = require('os');
    if (os.platform() === "win32")
    {
        let spawn = require("child_process").spawn,child;

        child = spawn("powershell.exe",[" get-psdrive  -psprovider filesystem | select-object name,used,free | ConvertTo-Json"]);

        child.stdout.on("data", function (data) {

            let res = JSON.parse(data);
            res.forEach( obj => renameKey( obj, 'Name', 'mounted'));
            res.forEach( obj => renameKey( obj, 'Used', 'used'));
            res.forEach( obj => renameKey( obj, 'Free', 'available'));

            for(let i = 0 ; i < res.length ; ++i)
                res[i].mounted = res[i].mounted + ":";

            resolve(res);
        });

    }
    else // other systems
    {
        const nodeDiskInfo = require('node-disk-info');
        nodeDiskInfo.getDiskInfo().then(disks => {
            resolve(disks);
        });
    }
});

function renameKey ( obj, oldKey, newKey ) {
    obj[newKey] = obj[oldKey];
    delete obj[oldKey];
}

PS C:\WINDOWS\system32> Get-PSDrive -PSProvider FileSystem

Name           Used (GB)     Free (GB) Provider      Root                                               CurrentLocation
