# bottom

[![Build Status](https://travis-ci.com/ClementTsang/bottom.svg?token=1wvzVgp94E1TZyPNs8JF&branch=master)](https://travis-ci.com/ClementTsang/bottom) [![crates.io link](https://img.shields.io/crates/v/bottom.svg)](https://crates.io/crates/bottom)

A graphical top clone, written in Rust. Inspired by both [gtop](https://github.com/aksakalli/gtop) and [gotop](https://github.com/cjbassi/gotop).

## Features

Features of bottom include:

- CPU widget to show a visual representation of per-core usage. Average CPU display also exists.

- Memory widget to show a visual representation of both RAM and SWAP usage.

- Networks widget to show a log-based visual representation of network usage.

- Sortable and searchable process widget. Searching supports regex, and you can search by PID and process name.

- Disks widget to display usage and I/O per second.

- Temperature widget to monitor detected sensors in your system.

The compatibility of each widget and operating systems are, as of version 0.1.0, as follows:

| OS                               | CPU | Memory | Disks | Temperature | Processes | Networks              |
| -------------------------------- | --- | ------ | ----- | ----------- | --------- | --------------------- |
| Linux (tested on Arch Linux)     | ✓   | ✓      | ✓     | ✓           | ✓         | ✓                     |
| Windows (tested on Windows 10)   | ✓   | ✓      | ✓     | ✗           | ✓         | Total RX/TX not shown |
| macOS (tested on macOS Catalina) | ✓   | ✓      | ✓     | ✓           | ✓         | ✓                     |

## Installation

In all cases you can install the in-development version by cloning and using `cargo build --release`. Note this is built and tested with Rust Stable (1.41.0 as of writing). You can also get release versions using `cargo install bottom`, or manually building from the [Releases](https://github.com/ClementTsang/bottom/releases) page by downloading and building.

### Linux

Other installation methods based on distros are as follows:

#### Arch Linux

You can get the release versions from the AUR by installing `bottom`.

#### Ubuntu

TBD

### Windows

You may need to install a font like [FreeMono](https://fonts2u.com/free-monospaced.font) and use a terminal like cmder for font support to work properly, unfortunately. I plan to add a Chocolatey install option in the future.

### macOS

macOS seems to work fine for the most part, barring minor issues with the `Ctrl`-arrow key bindings (use `Shift` instead). I plan to add a Homebrew install option in the future.

## Usage

Run using `btm`.

### Command line options

- `-h`, `--help` shows the help screen and exits.

- `-a`, `--avg_cpu` enables also showing the average CPU usage in addition to per-core CPU usage.

- `-m`, `--dot-marker` uses a dot marker instead of the default braille marker.

- Temperature units (you can only use one at a time):

  - `-c`, `--celsius` displays the temperature type in Celsius. This is the default.

  - `-f`, `--fahrenheit` displays the temperature type in Fahrenheit.

  - `-k`, `--kelvin` displays the temperature type in Kelvin.

- `-v`, `--version` displays the version number and exits.

- `-d`, `--debug` enables debug logging.

- `-r <RATE>`, `--rate <RATE>` will set the refresh rate in _milliseconds_. Lowest it can go is 250ms, the highest it can go is 2<sup>128</sup> - 1. Defaults to 1000ms, and lower values may take more resources due to more frequent polling of data, and may be less accurate in some circumstances.

- `-l`, `--left_legend` will move external table legends to the left side rather than the right side. Right side is default.

- `-u`, `--current_usage` will make a process' CPU usage be based on the current total CPU usage, rather than assuming 100% CPU usage. Only affects Linux for now.

- `-g`, `--group` will group together processes with the same name by default (equivalent to pressing `Tab`).

- `-S`, `--case_sensitive` will default to matching case.

- `-W`, `--whole` will default to searching for the world word.

- `-R`, `--regex` will default to using regex.

- `-C`, `--config` takes in a file path leading to a TOML file.

  One use of a config file is to set flags to execute by default.

  - This is set under the `[flags]` section.
  - These options are generally the same as the long names as other flags (ex: `case_sensitive = true`).
  - For temperature type, use `temperature_type = "<kelvin|k|celsius|c|fahrenheit|f>"`.

  Another use is to set colours, under the `[colors]`. The following labels are customizable with hex colour code strings:

  - Table header colours (`table_header_color="#ffffff"`).
  - Every CPU core colour as an array (`cpu_core_colors=["#ffffff", "#000000", "#111111"]`).
    - bottom will look at 216 (let's be realistic here) colours at most, and in order.
    - If not enough colours are provided for the number of threads on the CPU, then the rest will be automatically generated.
  - RAM and SWAP colours (`ram_color="#ffffff"`, `swap_color="#111111"`).
  - RX and TX colours (`rx_color="#ffffff"`, `tx_color="#111111"`).
  - Widget title colour (`widget_title_color="#ffffff"`).
  - General widget border colour (`border_color="#ffffff"`).
  - Current widget border colour (`highlighted_border_color="#ffffff"`).
  - Text colour (`text_color="#ffffff"`).
  - Label and graph colour (`graph_color="#ffffff"`).
  - Cursor colour (`cursor_color="#ffffff"`).
  - Current selected scroll entry colour (`scroll_entry_text_color="#282828"`, `scroll_entry_bg_color="#458588"`).

  bottom will check specific locations by default for a config file.

  - For Unix-based systems: `~/.config/btm/btm.toml`.
  - For Windows: TBD.

  See this [config](./sample_config.toml) for an example.

### Keybindings

#### General

- `q`, `Ctrl-c` to quit. Note if you are currently in the search widget, `q` will not work so you can still type.

- `Ctrl-r` to reset the screen and reset all collected data.

- `f` to freeze the screen from updating with new data. Press `f` again to unfreeze. Note that monitoring will still continue in the background.

- `Ctrl/Shift-Up`, `Ctrl/Shift-Down`, `Ctrl/Shift-Left`, and `Ctrl/Shift-Right` to navigate between widgets. **Note that on macOS, `Ctrl`-arrow keys conflicts with an existing macOS binding, use `Shift`-arrow key instead.**

- `Esc` to close a dialog window.

- `?` to get a help screen explaining the controls. Note all controls except `Esc` to close the dialog will be disabled while this is open.

#### Scrollable Tables

- `Up` or `k` and `Down` or `j` scrolls through the list if the widget is a table (Temperature, Disks, Processes).

- `gg` or `Home` to jump to the first entry of the current table.

- `G` (`Shift-g`) or `End` to jump to the last entry of the current table.

#### Processes

- `dd` to kill the selected process

- `c` to sort by CPU usage. Sorts in descending order by default. Press again to reverse sorting order.

- `m` to sort by memory usage. Sorts in descending order by default. Press again to reverse sorting order.

- `p` to sort by PID. Sorts in ascending order by default. Press again to reverse sorting order.

- `n` to sort by process name. Sorts in ascending order by default. Press again to reverse sorting order.

- `Tab` to group together processes with the same name. Disables PID sorting. `dd` will now kill all processes covered by that name.

- `Ctrl-f` or `/` to open the search widget.

#### Search Widget

- `Tab` to switch between searching for PID and name respectively.

- `Alt-c` to toggle ignoring case.

- `Alt-m` to toggle matching the entire word.

- `Alt-r` to toggle using regex.

- `Ctrl-a` and `Ctrl-e` to jump to the start and end of the search bar respectively.

- `Esc` to close.

- `Left` and `Right` arrow keys to move the cursor within the search bar.

Note that `q` is disabled while in the search widget.

### Mouse actions

- Scrolling with the mouse will scroll through the currently selected list if the widget is a scrollable table.
