ttop

System monitoring tool with historical data service, triggers and top-like TUI

image

  • Saving historical snapshots via systemd.timer or crontab

    • It is the main diff from htop, top, btop and etc
  • Scroll via historical data

  • External triggers (for notifications or other needs)

  • Ascii graph of historical stats (via https://github.com/Yardanico/asciigraph)

    • by default you see full day on the chart, see the moment of the spike and move into it for a detailed analysis
  • TUI with critical values highlights

  • Group by program

  • Search filters: @u - user u, #d - docker d

  • Temperature via sysfs

  • User-space only, doesn't require root permissions

  • Docker-related info

  • Threads tree

  • Static build

Install

Arch/AUR

yay -S ttop             # enables systemd.timers automatically

Static binary

curl -LO https://github.com/inv2004/ttop/releases/latest/download/ttop \
&& chmod +x ttop
mv ttop ~/.local/bin/   # add into PATH if necessary
ttop --on               # Optional: enable data collector in user's systemd.timers or crontab

Uninstall

ttop --off
rm ~/.local/bin/ttop

Build from source

curl https://nim-lang.org/choosenim/init.sh -sSf | sh    # Nim setup from nim-lang.org

git clone https://github.com/inv2004/ttop
cd ttop
nimble -d:release build

Triggers / Notifications

  • stmp support was removed in prev version by the reason that static binary with ssl is more that 3Mb

From v0.8.1 you can trigger external tool, for example curl, to send notifications
