Graph

You can generate dynamic graphs (SVG format) in a target folder. The generation starts every time the ‘g’ key is pressed in the CLI interface (if Glances has been started with the –export graph option).

The graph export module can be configured through the Glances configuration file:

[graph]
# Configuration for the --export graph option
# Set the path where the graph (.svg files) will be created
# Can be overwrite by the --graph-path command line option
path=/tmp
# It is possible to generate the graphs automatically by setting the
# generate_every to a non zero value corresponding to the seconds between
# two generation. Set it to 0 to disable graph auto generation.
generate_every=60
# See following configuration keys definitions in the Pygal lib documentation
# http://pygal.org/en/stable/documentation/index.html
width=800
height=600
style=DarkStyle

and run Glances with:

$ glances --export graph --export-graph-path /tmp
