rtop

rtop is a remote system monitor. It connects over SSH to a remote system and displays vital system metrics (CPU, disk, memory, network). No special software is needed on the remote system, other than an SSH server and working credentials.

Only Linux systems can be monitored, but most modern distros will work.

rtop is MIT-licensed and can be used anywhere with attribution.

rtop's home page has more information and screenshots!

build

rtop is written in go, and needs just one dependent library x/crypto. rtop does not use any dependency managers, just a git submodule. Follow these steps to build:

git clone --recursive http://github.com/rapidloop/rtop
cd rtop
make

The --recursive option will pull in the git submodule also. If you forget to use the flag, try make init.

contribute

Pull requests welcome. Keep it simple.
