How to get the system info with Python?

some of these could be obtained from the platform module:

>>> import platform
>>> platform.machine()
'x86'
>>> platform.version()
'5.1.2600'
>>> platform.platform()
'Windows-XP-5.1.2600-SP2'
>>> platform.uname()
('Windows', 'name', 'XP', '5.1.2600', 'x86', 'x86 Family 6 Model 15 Stepping 6, GenuineIntel')
>>> platform.system()
'Windows'
>>> platform.processor()
'x86 Family 6 Model 15 Stepping 6, GenuineIntel'

#Shamelessly combined from google and other stackoverflow like sites to form a single function

import platform,socket,re,uuid,json,psutil,logging

def getSystemInfo():
    try:
        info={}
        info['platform']=platform.system()
        info['platform-release']=platform.release()
        info['platform-version']=platform.version()
        info['architecture']=platform.machine()
        info['hostname']=socket.gethostname()
        info['ip-address']=socket.gethostbyname(socket.gethostname())
        info['mac-address']=':'.join(re.findall('..', '%012x' % uuid.getnode()))
        info['processor']=platform.processor()
        info['ram']=str(round(psutil.virtual_memory().total / (1024.0 **3)))+" GB"
        return json.dumps(info)
    except Exception as e:
        logging.exception(e)

json.loads(getSystemInfo())
