[SOLVED] Retrieving hardware inventory parameters

[tux]

Hello,

how can I retrieve the value of the `wuauserv_status/reboot_needed` parameter (hardware inventory) in a Python script?
I'm using the latest Enterprise version.

Thank you.

Hello Sébastien,

WAPT OS version, etc. (see forum rules).

Is the requirement server-side or client-side within a WAPT package?

Regards,

Denis

Hello,

Indeed, my request is not clear enough and does not comply with the rules.

WAPT Enterprise version 2.4.

The need is on the Windows client side.
In a package deployed on a Windows workstation, I am trying to retrieve, in the Python script (setup.py), the value of the parameter wuauserv_status/reboot_needed (displayed in the console in the workstation's hardware inventory).

I have not found anything in the "WAPT Setuphelpers Usage" documentation for this use case.

Regards

Good morning

Code: Select all

from waptwua.utils import waiting_for_reboot
print(waiting_for_reboot())

The code below:

Code: Select all

def waiting_for_reboot():
    """Return True if system is waiting for reboot to finish an install/update process
    """
    # Query WUAU from the registry
    if reg_key_exists(HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE, r"SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\WindowsUpdate\Auto Update\RebootRequired") or \
            reg_key_exists(HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE, r"SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Component Based Servicing\RebootPending") or \
            reg_key_exists(HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE, r'SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Updates\UpdateExeVolatile'):
        return True
    return False

Thank you, that's exactly what I was looking for.
