Top-like interface for container metrics

ctop provides a concise and condensed overview of real-time metrics for multiple containers:

ctop

as well as a single container view for inspecting a specific container.

ctop comes with built-in support for Docker and runC; connectors for other container and cluster systems are planned for future releases.

Building

Build steps can be found here.

Usage

ctop requires no arguments and uses Docker host variables by default. See connectors for further configuration options.

Config file

While running, use S to save the current filters, sort field, and other options to a default config path (~/.config/ctop/config on XDG systems, else ~/.ctop).

Config file values will be loaded and applied the next time ctop is started.

Option Description
-a show active containers only
-f <string> set an initial filter string
-h display help dialog
-i invert default colors
-r reverse container sort order
-s select initial container sort field
-v output version information and exit

Keybindings

Key Action
<ENTER> Open container menu
a Toggle display of all (running and non-running) containers
f Filter displayed containers (esc to clear when open)
H Toggle ctop header
h Open help dialog
s Select container sort field
r Reverse container sort order
