access hardware information in nodejs

Question

I want to use nodejs to access hardware information, like processor ID, HDD Serial, Active LAN card's MAC address and some other information. By using a windows specific command I can get ProcessorID and HDD serial number. But this system will be running on different OSes so I need cross platform solutions to getting this info.

How can I get this info for all platforms?

This question is a bit old but it returned in my google search, so I'll share a lib that I found. I'm not sure it is good because I didn't really use it, but seems nice despite it still has no support for Windows platform: https://github.com/sebhildebrandt/systeminformation
