Usage

This little code snipped shows how to read the current CPU temperature:

// import the class
const { SMCNodeKit } = require('smc-node-kit');

// create a new instance of the class and open the connection to the SMC
const smcKit = new SMCNodeKit();
smcKit.open();

// read the cpu temperature
console.log(smcKit.getCpuTemp());

// close the connection to the SMC
smcKit.close();

If you are using typescript you can use named imports:

// import the class
import { SMCNodeKit } from 'smc-node-kit';

// create a new instance of the class and open the connection to the SMC
const smcKit: SMCNodeKit = new SMCNodeKit();
smcKit.open();

// read the cpu temperature
console.log(smcKit.getCpuTemp());

// close the connection to the SMC
smcKit.close();
