OS Detection Library

Run

Detect system platform with this call:

Platform result = Platform.detect(CommonOS.list());

and inspect the result which may give 'Linux' for os, 'X86' for cpu type, 'B64' for bit size, 'Ubuntu' for distribution and 'Ubuntu_22_04' for version.

You can set system property de.flapdoodle.os.explain=true and enable logging for package de.flapdoodle.os.common.attributes to get some debugging output.

You can override platform detection with system property de.flapdoodle.os.override=<platform> where platform contains the os, architecture, distribution and version (optional). Sample value for macOs on x86 with 64bit: OS_X|X86_64, Centos7 on 32bit x86: Linux|X86_32|CentOS|CentOS_7. You should NOT use quotes, so de.flapdoodle.os.override=OS_X|X86__64.
