C Is there a higher level API built on top of sysctl(3)?

C

Cromulent

I'm trying to monitor FreeBSD usage (CPU, RAM, network etc) and the sysctl(3) man page seems to suggest it does what I want.

I want to call if from Python 3.12 so I was thinking about just accessing it directly by calling the C API from within Python but I wanted to check if there was already a Python library that did the hard work already?

Is there already something out there that makes it easier?

Did you try py-sysctl from pypi? There is even the official port: devel/py-sysctl.

There is also devel/py-freebsd-sysctl.
