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

as well as a [single container view][single_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][build].
Usage
ctop requires no arguments and uses Docker host variables by default. See [connectors][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.
Options
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 | | o | Open single view | | l | View container logs (t to toggle timestamp when open) | | e | Exec Shell | | c | Configure columns | | S | Save current configuration to file | | q | Quit ctop |
