Feature Request : System monitor

[tjsd]

Hello! I love the monitor of the dockers, but I wish it showed more details of the background os. Like if it was combined with HTOP.

To explain, now it looks like this in monitor mode

But I would want the top part to display more of the current memory usage and cpu usage like in htop shown here:

If that makes sense to you :)

Hey there!

Thanks for the idea and great that you like the monitor view.

If I understood correctly, what you are proposing is to replace the top part of the screen (where general information about Docker is shown) with memory and CPU usage about the host where Docker is running, right?

I like the idea, but it is a bit outside the current focus of the tool. All the information show by dry comes from the Docker daemon, which afaik does not provide this runtime information about the host.

Anyway, since it seems useful I will keep the issue around.

@tjsd You can achieve what you want using tmux for example. Is this setup close to what you want? If yes, its just as simple as a horizontally tiled tmux window and as you can see some setup in htop. Let me know, if you need help getting tmux/htop set up like this.

It looks pretty cool, @Memphizzz

@moncho After leaving glances because of its massive CPU usage, I was looking for alternatives. After playing around a lot, I figured there is nothing more optimized for running over long periods of time as htop (especially if you look at cpu time and memory usage) for displaying CPU/Mem/Processes. The only thing missing was a docker overview/monitor. Thanks again for providing it :)
