ctop provides a concise and condensed overview of real-time metrics for multiple containers. ctop comes with built-in support for Docker and runC; connectors for other container and cluster systems are planned for future releases. ctop requires no arguments and uses Docker host variables by default. See connectors for further configuration options. Config file values will be loaded and applied the next time ctop is started. To build ctop from source, simply clone the repo and run "make build". To build a minimal Docker image containing only ctop, run "image". Now you can run your local image. Default connector behavior can be changed by setting the relevant environment variables. Using RunC connector requires full privileges to the local runC root dir of container state (default: /run/runc).

Features

  • Top-like interface for container metrics
  • Concise commandline monitoring for containers
  • Single container view for inspecting a specific container
  • ctop is available for Arch in the AUR
  • Default connector, configurable via standard Docker commandline varaibles
