netstat
=======
[](https://crates.io/crates/netstat)
[](https://docs.rs/netstat)

Cross-platform library to retrieve network sockets information.
Aims to be optimal by using low-level OS APIs instead of command line utilities.
Provides unified interface and returns data structures which may have additional fields depending on platform.
## Example
```rust
extern crate netstat;
use netstat::*;
fn main() {
let af_flags = AddressFamilyFlags::IPV4 | AddressFamilyFlags::IPV6;
let proto_flags = ProtocolFlags::TCP | ProtocolFlags::UDP;
let sockets_info = get_sockets_info(af_flags, proto_flags).unwrap();
for si in sockets_info {
match si.protocol_socket_info {
ProtocolSocketInfo::Tcp(tcp_si) => println!(
"TCP {}:{} -> {}:{} {:?} - {}",
tcp_si.local_addr,
tcp_si.local_port,
tcp_si.remote_addr,
tcp_si.remote_port,
si.associated_pids,
tcp_si.state
),
ProtocolSocketInfo::Udp(udp_si) => println!(
"UDP {}:{} -> *:* {:?}",
udp_si.local_addr, udp_si.local_port, si.associated_pids
),
}
}
}
```
## Details
- On Windows, library uses [GetExtendedTcpTable](https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/desktop/api/iphlpapi/nf-iphlpapi-getextendedtcptable) & [GetExtendedUdpTable](https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/desktop/api/iphlpapi/nf-iphlpapi-getextendedudptable) (iphlpapi)
- On Linux, it uses [NETLINK_INET_DIAG](http://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/bionic/en/man7/sock_diag.7.html) protocol and performs pid lookup by traversing `procfs`
- On OS X, it should ideally use `sysctls`, but currently just parses netstat output (proper impletemention is mostly done in unused modules under `src/integrations/osx` folder, it waits for contributors with mac to finish it)
