## Support
|
|
|
|
Note that bottom is:
|
|
|
|
- Built and released using the most recent stable version of Rust
|
|
- Officially supports:
|
|
- macOS (`x86_64`)
|
|
- Linux (`x86_64`, `i686`, `aarch64`)
|
|
- Windows (`x86_64`, `i686`)
|
|
|
|
Operating systems, versions of Rust, or platforms that are outside of this list are
|
|
_not_ currently officially supported - even if it is built, tested, or works - and I may not be
|
|
able to fix bugs for these!
|
|
|
|
### Compatibility
|
|
|
|
The current compatibility of widgets with operating systems from personal testing:
|
|
|
|
| OS | CPU | Memory | Disks | Temperature | Processes/Search | Networks | Battery |
|
|
| ------- | --- | ------ | ----- | ------------------------------------ | ------------------------------------------ | -------- | -------------------------------------------- |
|
|
| Linux | ✓ | ✓ | ✓ | ✓ | ✓ | ✓ | ✓ |
|
|
| Windows | ✓ | ✓ | ✓ | ? (seems to require elevated access) | ✓ | ✓ | ✓ (seems to have issues with dual batteries) |
|
|
| macOS | ✓ | ✓ | ✓ | ✓ | ✓ (requires `sudo btm` to show everything) | ✓ | ✓ |
|
|
|
|
### Other known platform-specific issues
|
|
|
|
- M1-based macOS devices may have issues with temperature sensors not returning anything.
|
|
|
|
- For now, WSL has an issue reporting total memory usage.
|
|
|
|
- WSL and WSL2 (as far as I know) cannot correctly report temperature sensors.
|
|
|
|
- WSL2 will not match Windows' own Task Manager, this appears to be due to how WSL2 works.
|
|
|
|
## Installation
|
|
|
|
### Manually
|
|
|
|
There are a few ways to go about doing this manually. If you do so, please build using the current stable release of Rust. For example:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
# If required, update Rust on the stable channel
|
|
rustup update stable
|
|
|
|
# Clone and install the newest master version all via Cargo
|
|
cargo install --git https://github.com/ClementTsang/bottom
|
|
|
|
# Clone from master and install manually
|
|
git clone https://github.com/ClementTsang/bottom
|
|
cd bottom
|
|
cargo install --path .
|
|
|
|
# Download from releases and install
|
|
curl -LO https://github.com/ClementTsang/bottom/archive/0.6.0.tar.gz
|
|
tar -xzvf 0.6.0.tar.gz
|
|
cargo install --path .
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Or, you can just download the binary from the [latest release](https://github.com/ClementTsang/bottom/releases/latest).
|
|
|
|
### Nightly
|
|
|
|
You can install pre-release nightly versions [here](https://github.com/ClementTsang/bottom/releases/tag/nightly). Builds are generated every day at 00:00 UTC, based on the most recent commit on the master branch.
|
|
|
|
### Cargo
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
# If required, update Rust on the stable channel
|
|
rustup update stable
|
|
|
|
cargo install bottom
|
|
|
|
# OR, --locked may be required due to how cargo install works
|
|
cargo install bottom --locked
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### AUR
|
|
|
|
Normal package found [here](https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/bottom/), binary package found [here](https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/bottom-bin/):
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
yay -S bottom
|
|
|
|
# If you instead want a pre-built binary:
|
|
yay -S bottom-bin
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Debian
|
|
|
|
A `.deb` file is provided on each [release](https://github.com/ClementTsang/bottom/releases/latest):
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
curl -LO https://github.com/ClementTsang/bottom/releases/download/0.6.0/bottom_0.6.0_amd64.deb
|
|
sudo dpkg -i bottom_0.6.0_amd64.deb
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Fedora/CentOS
|
|
|
|
Available in [COPR](https://copr.fedorainfracloud.org/coprs/atim/bottom/):
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
sudo dnf copr enable atim/bottom -y
|
|
sudo dnf install bottom
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Gentoo
|
|
|
|
Available in [dm9pZCAq overlay](https://github.com/gentoo-mirror/dm9pZCAq)
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
sudo eselect repository enable dm9pZCAq
|
|
sudo emerge --sync dm9pZCAq
|
|
sudo emerge sys-process/bottom::dm9pZCAq
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Nix
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
nix-env -i bottom
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Solus
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
sudo eopkg it bottom
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Homebrew
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
brew tap clementtsang/bottom
|
|
brew install bottom
|
|
|
|
# If you need to be more specific, use:
|
|
brew install clementtsang/bottom/bottom
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Scoop
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
scoop install bottom
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Chocolatey
|
|
|
|
Choco package located [here](https://chocolatey.org/packages/bottom). Since you cannot upload a
|
|
new package while a previous one is being validated, the newest version of a release may take a while
|
|
to appear.
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
choco install bottom
|
|
|
|
# Version number may be required for newer releases, if available:
|
|
choco install bottom --version=0.6.0
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### winget
|
|
|
|
You can find the packages [here](https://github.com/microsoft/winget-pkgs/tree/master/manifests/Clement/bottom).
|
|
Since validation of the package takes time, it may take a while to become available after a release.
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
winget install bottom
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
You can also manually do the same thing by going to the [latest release](https://github.com/ClementTsang/bottom/releases/latest)
|
|
and installing via the `.msi` file.
|
|
|
|
You can uninstall via Control Panel or Options in Windows.
|
|
|
|
### Auto-completion
|
|
|
|
Shell completions are included in binary releases, and are generated in the same directory as the
|
|
binary if bottom is manually built.
|
|
|
|
- For bash, move `btm.bash` to `$XDG_CONFIG_HOME/bash_completion or /etc/bash_completion.d/`.
|
|
- For fish, move `btm.fish` to `$HOME/.config/fish/completions/`.
|
|
- For zsh, move `_btm` to one of your `$fpath` directories.
|
|
- For PowerShell, add `. _btm.ps1` to your PowerShell
|
|
[profile](<https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/previous-versions//bb613488(v=vs.85)>).
|
|
|
|
Some install scripts (i.e. AUR) will automatically do this for you.

|
- Process management (well, if process killing is all you need)
|
|
|
|
It also aims to be:
|
|
|
|
- Lightweight
|
|
|
|
- Cross-platform - supports 64-bit Linux, Windows, and macOS
|
|
|
|
In addition, bottom also currently has the following features:
|
|
|
|
### Processes
|
|
|
|
#### Process searching
|
|
|
|
On any process widget, hit `/` to bring up a search bar. If the layout has multiple process widgets, note this search is independent of other widgets.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
By default, just typing in something will search by process name:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
This simple search can be refined by matching by case, matching the entire word, or by using regex:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Now let's say you want to search for two things - luckily, we have the `AND` and `OR` logical operators:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Furthermore, one is able to refine their searches by CPU usage, memory usage, PID, and more. For example:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
You can see all available keywords and query options [here](#process-searching-keywords).
|
|
|
|
#### Process sorting
|
|
|
|
You can sort the processes list by any column you want by pressing `s` while on a process widget:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
#### Tree mode
|
|
|
|
Use `t` or `F5` to toggle tree mode in a process widget. This is somewhat similar to htop's tree
|
|
mode.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Sorting works as well, but it is done per groups of siblings. For example, by CPU%:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
You can also still filter processes. Branches that entirely do not match the query are pruned out,
|
|
but if a branch contains an element that does match the query, any non-matching elements will instead
|
|
just be greyed out, so the tree structure is still maintained:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
### Zoom
|
|
|
|
Using the `+`/`-` keys or the scroll wheel will move the current time intervals of the currently selected widget, and `=` to reset the zoom levels to the default.
|
|
Widgets can hold different time intervals independently. These time intervals can be adjusted using the
|
|
`-t`/`--default_time_value` and `-d`/`--time_delta` options, or their corresponding config options.
|
|
|
|
### Expand
|
|
|
|
Only care about one specific widget? You can go to that widget and hit `e` to make that widget expand and take
|
|
up the entire drawing area. You can minimize this expanded widget with `Esc` or pressing `e` again.
|
|
|
|
### Basic mode
|
|
|
|
Using the `-b` or `--basic_mode` (or their corresponding config options) will open bottom in basic mode.
|
|
There are no charts or expanded mode when using this, and tables are condensed such that only one table is displayed
|
|
at a time.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Note custom layouts are currently not available when this is used.
|
|
|
|
### Config files
|
|
|
|
bottom supports reading from a config file to customize its behaviour and look.
|
|
By default, bottom will look at (based on [dirs](https://github.com/dirs-dev/dirs-rs#features)):
|
|
|
|
| OS | Location |
|
|
| ----------------------------------------------------------------------- | -------- |
|
|
| `~/.config/bottom/bottom.toml` or `$XDG_CONFIG_HOME/bottom/bottom.toml` | Linux |
|
|
| `$HOME/Library/Application Support/bottom/bottom.toml` | macOS |
|
|
| `C:\Users\<USER>\AppData\Roaming\bottom\bottom.toml` | Windows |
|
|
|
|
Note that if a config file does not exist at either the default location or the passed in location via `-C` or `--config`, one is automatically created with no settings applied.
|
|
|
|
#### Config flags
|
|
|
|
The following options can be set under `[flags]` to achieve the same effect as passing in a flag on runtime. Note that if a flag is given, it will override the config file.
|
|
|
|
These are the following supported flag config values, which correspond to the flag of the same name described in [Flags](#flags):
|

#### Theming
|
|
|
|
The config file can be used to set custom colours for parts of the application under the `[colors]` object. The following labels are customizable with strings that are hex colours, RGB colours, or specific named colours.
|
|
|
|
Supported named colours are one of the following strings: `Reset, Black, Red, Green, Yellow, Blue, Magenta, Cyan, Gray, DarkGray, LightRed, LightGreen, LightYellow, LightBlue, LightMagenta, LightCyan, White`.
|
|
|
|
| Labels | Details | Example |
|
|
| ------------------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------- |
|
|
| Table header colours | Colour of table headers | `table_header_color="255, 255, 255"` |
|
|
| CPU colour per core | Colour of each core. Read in order. | `cpu_core_colors=["#ffffff", "white", "255, 255, 255"]` |
|
|
| Average CPU colour | The average CPU color | `avg_cpu_color="White"` |
|
|

|
|
| Low battery level colour | The colour used for a low battery level (10% to 0%) | `low_battery_color="red"` |
|
|
|
|
#### Layout
|
|
|
|
bottom supports customizable layouts via the config file. Currently, layouts are controlled by using TOML objects and arrays.
|
|
|
|
For example, given the sample layout:
|
|
|
|
```toml
|
|
[[row]]
|
|
[[row.child]]
|
|
type="cpu"
|
|
[[row]]
|
|
ratio=2
|
|
[[row.child]]
|
|
ratio=4
|
|
type="mem"
|
|
[[row.child]]
|
|
ratio=3
|
|
[[row.child.child]]
|
|
type="temp"
|
|
[[row.child.child]]
|
|
type="disk"
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
This would give a layout that has two rows, with a 1:2 ratio. The first row has only the CPU widget.
|
|
The second row is split into two columns with a 4:3 ratio. The first column contains the memory widget.
|
|
The second column is split into two rows with a 1:1 ratio. The first is the temperature widget, the second is the disk widget.
|
|
|
|
This is what the layout would look like when run:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Each `[[row]]` represents a _row_ in the layout. A row can have any number of `child` values. Each `[[row.child]]`
|
|
represents either a _column or a widget_. A column can have any number of `child` values as well. Each `[[row.child.child]]`
|
|
represents a _widget_. A widget is represented by having a `type` field set to a string.
|
|
|
|
The following `type` values are supported:
|
|
|
|
| | |
|
|
| -------------------------------- | ------------------------ |
|
|
| `"cpu"` | CPU chart and legend |
|
|
| `"mem", "memory"` | Memory chart |
|
|
| `"net", "network"` | Network chart and legend |
|
|
| `"proc", "process", "processes"` | Process table and search |
|
|
| `"temp", "temperature"` | Temperature table |
|
|
| `"disk"` | Disk table |
|
|
| `"empty"` | An empty space |
|
|
| `"batt", "battery"` | Battery statistics |
|
|
|
|
Each component of the layout accepts a `ratio` value. If this is not set, it defaults to 1.
|
|
|
|
For an example, look at the [default config](./sample_configs/default_config.toml), which contains the default layout.
|
|
|
|
Furthermore, you can have duplicate widgets. This means you could do something like:
|
|
|
|
```toml
|
|
[[row]]
|
|
ratio=1
|
|
[[row.child]]
|
|
type="cpu"
|
|
[[row.child]]
|
|
type="cpu"
|
|
[[row.child]]
|
|
type="cpu"
|
|
[[row]]
|
|
ratio=1
|
|
[[row.child]]
|
|
type="cpu"
|
|
[[row.child]]
|
|
type="empty"
|
|
[[row.child]]
|
|
type="cpu"
|
|
[[row]]
|
|
ratio=1
|
|
[[row.child]]
|
|
type="cpu"
|
|
[[row.child]]
|
|
type="cpu"
|
|
[[row.child]]
|
|
type="cpu"
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
and get the following CPU donut:
|
|
|
|
|
|
#### Disk, temperature, and network filtering
|
|
|
|
You can hide specific disks, temperature sensors, and networks by name in the config file via `disk_filter` and `mount_filter`, `temp_filter`, and `net_filter` respectively. Regex (`regex = true`), case-sensitivity (`case_sensitive = true`), and matching only if the entire word matches (`whole_word = true`) are supported, but are off by default. Filters default to denying entries that match and can be toggled by setting `is_list_ignored` to `false` in the config file.
|
|
|
|
For example, here's the disk widget with no filter:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The following in the config file would filter out some entries by disk name:
|
|
|
|
```toml
|
|
[disk_filter]
|
|
is_list_ignored = true
|
|
list = ["/dev/sda"]
|
|
regex = true
|
|
case_sensitive = false
|
|
whole_word = false
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
If there are two potentially conflicting filters (i.e. when you are using both a disk and mount filter), the filter that explicitly allows an entry takes precedence over a filter that explicitly denies one. So for example, let's say I set a disk filter accepting anything with `/dev/sda`, but deny anything with `/mnt/.*` or `/`. So to do so, I write in the config file:
|
|
|
|
```toml
|
|
[disk_filter]
|
|
is_list_ignored = false
|
|
list = ["/dev/sda"]
|
|
regex = true
|
|
case_sensitive = false
|
|
whole_word = false
|
|
|
|
[mount_filter]
|
|
is_list_ignored = true
|
|
list = ["/mnt/.*", "/"]
|
|
regex = true
|
|
case_sensitive = false
|
|
whole_word = true
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Which gives me:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
### Battery
|
|
|
|
You can get battery statistics (charge, time to fill/discharge, consumption in watts, and battery health) via the battery widget.
|
|
|
|
Since this is only useful for devices like laptops, it is off by default. You can either enable the widget in the default layout via the `--battery` flag, or by specifying the widget in a [layout](#layout):

- This project is very much inspired by [gotop](https://github.com/cjbassi/gotop),
|
|
its successor [ytop](https://github.com/cjbassi/ytop), and [gtop](https://github.com/aksakalli/gtop).
|
|
|
|
- Basic mode is heavily inspired by [htop's](https://hisham.hm/htop/) design.
|
|
|
|
- This application was written with many, _many_ libraries, and built on the
|
|
work of many talented people. This application would be impossible without their
|
|
work. I used to thank them all individually but the list got too large...
|
|
|
|
- And of course, thanks to all contributors!
