OS_flavor_name_version - easybuilders/easybuild GitHub Wiki
We need a Python function in EasyBuild to figure out OS flavor/name/version.
This wiki page collects outputs of the Python script below, to see whether this is sufficient/acceptable as a way of figuring out OS details.
Script
Just start a python interpreter, and copy-paste the code below:
import platform
import sys
def linux_distribution():
try:
return platform.linux_distribution()
except:
return "N/A"
print("""Python version: %s
dist: %s
linux_distribution: %s
system: %s
machine: %s
platform: %s
uname: %s
version: %s
mac_ver: %s
""" % (
sys.version.split('\n'),
str(platform.dist()),
linux_distribution(),
platform.system(),
platform.machine(),
platform.platform(),
platform.uname(),
platform.version(),
platform.mac_ver(),
))
