Make Proc Directory Injectable

[dagrooms52]

I'm writing a Docker container for a plugin service that will be able to read the resource stats from the Docker host. In the container, I have to pass the host's proc directory as /host/proc instead of slapping it over the container's /proc. This requirement renders this library useless for reading the host's proc info, since it assumes where proc is located on a linux machine. If I could inject the read path into your utility, I wouldn't have to write a custom parser for this project.

Either a setting like psutil.proc_path = "/host/proc" or an object with the path initializer, util = PsUtil("/host/proc") would be awesome to have.

The functionality you're talking about is already there:

import psutil
psutil.PROCFS_PATH = "/foo"

Awesome - sorry about this issue, didn't read the whole docs and that was at the bottom of the page.

No problem. :-)
