@shantkarm

Hi how can i get the status of a specific process through the API

steschuser

@steschuser

@matyhaty
Have you checked the documentation at https://glances.readthedocs.io/en/latest/aoa/amps.html
Looks like you can define commands there, that will be run by glanes

@shantkarm

thank you :) btw i have a raspberry pi with ds18b20 sensors. when i ran glances directly on the pi it was able to get the sensor's information.. however, now its running on docker and they are not visible. how can i get ds18b20 1-wire sensors ve visible in glances through a docker enviornent?

thank you :)

@plshazer

does anyone know how to secure with user and password glance installed in console mode with: $ docker run -d --name=Glances --restart="always" --network=host -e GLANCES_OPT="-w" -v glances_config:/glances/conf -v /var/run/docker.sock:/var/run/docker.sock:ro --pid host docker.io/nicolargo/glances

Hi, I am using glances on a 32 core dual cpu system, and the sensors plugin has multiple sensors with the same name, and when one sensor reaches a temperature limit and highlites, all of the other sensors with the same name highlite as well, even though they are below the defined temperature

i am using glances v3.1.5 with psutil v5.7.2 on arch linux

How to sort by process swap usage?

Has anyone experienced a certain behavior, when running in browser mode, that when selecting a server, the cursor just scrolls to the bottom of the page, jumps back to the top, scrolls to the bottom, etc. No server data is actually shown. All servers have glances 3.1.5 installed, and are running on a mix of Debian 9 and 10. Glances on all were install via pip.

@cyr0nk0r

How can I leverage the CPU process filter to filter multiple processes instead of just one?
.python. works fine .. but what if I want any process with python OR mysqld ?
.python|mysqld. is a valid regex, but doesn't work. Is this supported?

patrcoil

@patrcoil

I recently installed Glances which does a great job! Unfortunately, I cannot select processes with UP and DOWN arrows as mentioned in all documentations. Thus impossible to use key k to kill processes, do somebody known how to fix the issue? I am using Ubuntu 20.04

cyr0nk0r

@cyr0nk0r

so is this chat even monitored at all? It's been 12 days with no response. How are you supposed to get support on this?

patrcoil

@patrcoil

THX, you made some kind of answer ;)

patrcoil

@patrcoil

BTW, did you succeed in selecting and killing processes with k?

Does anyone have any tips to increase general Glances API performance on Windows 10? performance isn't very good when making too many concurrent REST calls to Glances. Some requests take several seconds for the server to provide a response (if there's already a pending request). Other times, it's instant. I'm using the command: "python.exe glances-script.py -w -0 -q -t 8 --cached-time 8". Is there a way to increase the number of process threads used by the glances API; or, something similar? Would it help to use the pre-compiled glances.exe that comes with the module instead of using glances-script.py?

Glances is only using 16% of my quadcore 2.4Ghz CPU approximately every 8 seconds

Hi all, I'm unable to find a way to convert the response to something similar to when I curl. The endpoint in question is "/api/3/cpu/total" and the content is "b'x\x9c\xabV*\xc9/I\xccQ\xb2R0\xd43\xa8\x05\x00#\x1d\x04J'". Converting from bytes to string still isn't the expected output. I think this is something to do with the "deflate" encoding but I can't find a way to inflate (if that's the correct phrase)

tomshort-si

@tomshort-si

@mkanet_twitter If you're making lots of requests from the same client then you could always just call /api/3/all and sort through the response

Hi all, I successfull installed glances under Windows Server and web consolle works great! But... calling api if I must use f.i. /api/3/mem to obtain correct JSON values, instead if I use f.i. /api/3/mem/free I obtain a binary stream like response... (something like "x��VJ+JMU�R06200017546��?�h") How I can solve it?

I've discovered that using Postman and deselecting Accept-Encoding gzip, deflate, br as request header, now I can obtain correct JSON response!!!

"free": 31972978688
}

tomshort-si

@tomshort-si

@RobertoMilani That's exactly the same issue I'm having! If you print response.content it's more readable but definitely not the expected output

RobertoMilani

@RobertoMilani

@tomshort-si I've solved on "laboratory side" using a Postman call and using Accept-Encoding (as request header option) set to "gzip" only without "deflate". Now, I'm trying to "put all togheter" and make glances integration usable through openVpn and reverse proxy inside Home Assistant. I partially solved doing REST call integration, but the "glances" integration is better.

tomshort-si

@tomshort-si

@RobertoMilani thank you so much! that's solved it for me. Good luck mate

RobertoMilani

@RobertoMilani

@tomshort-si I've just discovered that inside nginx reverse proxy all works fine putting inside config:
proxy_set_header Accept-Encoding "gzip";

mkanet

@mkanet_twitter

@tomshort-si thanks for the tip. That was the first thing I tried. However, the software I'm using "Home Assistant" doesn't allow me to parse all the data in one shot "yet". I'm guessing from your answer, there aren't glances settings/configurations that would help optimize the multitasking performance of Glances.

@nicolargo The wiki said to post issues here to help. So, here goes:
In the documention (Interactive Commands) https://glances.readthedocs.io/en/latest/cmds.html
It shows "k" is "Show/hide TCP connections". It should be capital "K". Also, "K" isn't in the interactive help screen in the app.

FastThenLeft

@FastThenLeft

@nicolargo In the documentation (Interactive Commands) https://glances.readthedocs.io/en/latest/cmds.html
It shows "Q" is "Show/hide IRQ module". That doesn't work in V3.1.6.2. That command also isn't listed in the interactive help screen in the app.

Hi, just want to let you know, Glances reading temps on Asrock 4x4 box 4800u are off the charts, perhaps there's a multiplier someplace or something needs calibration for this one

Well, I was mining monerod, just stopped it, will wait as temps are coming down, perhaps it was accurate?

hi, I have a question and the export csv file, could you please kindly help to explain it? when I export the csv file, I don't know the unit for network__rx? it's the speed based on b/s, or **B/s, or any other? thanks for your help

Ubuntu 20.04.2 LTS
Glances v3.1.6.2 with PsUtil v5.5.1
when i run glances in terminal, only then email notifications are sent

is there a way to run glances process in background?

@MarioSuarez_o_0_twitter

Hi everyone. Is there a compatibility problem between versions? I have 5.5.1 on the server and 5.0.1 on some of my clients and I can't access them. The problem is that I cannot update the clients. Is there any solution? Thks

Hi everyone, did you ever run into SSL Routines errors with Influxdb? I'm installing and configurating glances via script on two ubuntu 20.04 cloud servers. One is provided by hetzner and one by digitalocean. The hetzner server starts glances and sends data to influxdb cloud. digitalocean only gives me an error in the logs: ("bad handshake: Error([('SSL routines', 'tls_process_server_certificate', 'certificate verify failed')])",)

Could that be a bug? The fresh started cloud instances shouldn't differ, right?

Hi,

I am using glances API to retrieve some plugin values, however I am struggling to get values from the network interface.

I use the following to retrieve the network data:

curl http://locahost:61208/api/3/network/interface/ens2

I get the following result:
{"ens2": [{"time_since_update": 60.294524908065796, "cx": 351345, "is_up": true, "key": "interface_name", "speed": 68718428160, "tx": 246733, "cumulative_rx": 1001275087, "rx": 104612, "cumulative_cx": 3299504830, "cumulative_tx": 2298229743, "interface_name": "ens2"}]}.

Please how do I get individual values like tx and rx? Also, how do I get the units in which they are measured?

Could you please enlighten me on what unit tx, rx and time_since_update are?
