Hide function in sensors section

[dtalens]

New feature: Add hide function of some sensors. In the same way that can be done with the hard drive partitions. For example, in glances.conf in Sensors section: hide=name_sensor01,name_sensor02...

• Glances v3.1.3 with psutil v5.6.7
• LSB Version: core-9.20170808ubuntu1-noarch:printing-9.20170808ubuntu1-noarch:security-9.20170808ubuntu1-noarch Distributor ID: Ubuntu Description: Ubuntu 18.04.3 LTS Release: 18.04 Codename: bionic

3.1.4.1 still can't hide unneeded sensors.

[mabod]

I support this request! I already renamed a couple of sensors with the *_alias function:

[sensors]
Tctl_alias=CPU Temp2 
Tdie_alias=CPU Temp1
nct6797 2_alias=Fan CPU
nct6797 3_alias=Fan hinten
nct6797 4_alias=Fan unten
nct6797 5_alias=Fan oben
nct6797 7_alias=Fan sys

But I am seeing to many sensors which are not useful to me and are just confusing:

Composite             39C   
Sensor 1              39C   
Sensor 2              40C  
Composite             42C  
Sensor 1              42C   
Sensor 2              41C   
CPU Temp2             54C   
CPU Temp1             54C
Tccd1                 41C   
SYSTIN                39C   
PCH_MCH_TEM            0C   
CPUTIN                36C
AUXTIN0               42C   
AUXTIN1             -128C   
AUXTIN2               61C   
AUXTIN3               -2C
PCH_CHIP_CP            0C   
PCH_CHIP_TE            0C
PCH_CPU_TEM            0C   
nct6797 1              0R   
Fan CPU              608R 
Fan hinten           598R   
Fan unten            213R   
Fan oben             193R   
nct6797 6              0R   
Fan sys              802R

@mabod have you tried using an aliases? Just wondering if you have been able to alias AUXTIN0 - 3. I cant seem to get an alias to apply to them.

Also, if you use the web gui, the ones that are 0 are hidden. glances -w -p

[mabod]

@distributorofpain: What do you mean? I do not want to alias AUXTIN0 - 3. I want to hide them and the others.

[distributorofpain]

hiding is fine too, just wanted to know if you had tried to alias it since i cant seem to alias it.

[mabod]

Aliases work fine for me:

AUXTIN0_alias=aaaa
AUXTIN1_alias=bbbb

But no hiding.

[distributorofpain]

Aliases work fine for me:

AUXTIN0_alias=aaaa
AUXTIN1_alias=bbbb

But no hiding.

Thanks! I see where i made my mistake.

[distributorofpain]

I was discussing this in the 1596 pull request mentioned above. just add "hide=AUXTIN0,AUXTIN1" in the sensors section of the glances config.

Update: i guess its not working... could of sworn i saw them go away...

[mabod]

I tested with Glances v3.1.6_b1 with PsUtil v5.7.2 and it is working. I used your hide example but AUXTIN0 and 1 still show up.

[modelrockettier]

Pull request #1596 will fix this issue, it just got closed for some reason without being applied.

[wolfallein]

I also want the hide function implemented, and I confirm pull request #1596 fix this. Just apply the suggested patch to glances_sensors.py if you want it now.

[dtalens]

I also confirm pull request #1596 fix this but this patch is not applied at version 3.1.6.1

[dtalens]

Manual #1596 fix has been applied in version 3.1.6.2 but do not work.

[nicolargo]

Re-apply in the develop branch => See commit https://github.com/nicolargo/glances/commit/871b4c32b22581242c326b67459c2a86f97c6c4a

Sorry for that !

[gauvins2]

[EDIT]Hiding DOES work when the sensor name is in lower case [/EDIT] Hiding sensors still not working for me. (pop_os 22.04) (Alias IS working)

[nicolargo]

It works (tested on the latest Glances 3.2.6.4 version).

Without hide:

Whit hide=ambiant

cc: @gauvins2

[hrandib]

Hi @nicolargo, Your example doesn't hide the sensor in the upper case, as pointed out by @gauvins2 above. And I can observe that it doesn't really work.

drivetemp 1_alias=WD 8TB
drivetemp 2_alias=WD 12TB
hide=AUXTIN

Result:

Glances v3.2.7 with PsUtil v5.9.1

[dtalens]

Hi, It works for me if I add lowercase aliases. No configuration changes:

Adding this:

SYSTIN_alias=systin
AUXTIN1_alias=auxtin1
AUXTIN2_alias=auxtin2
AUXTIN3_alias=auxtin3
hide=systin,auxtin1,auxtin2,auxtin3

Glances version 3.2.7

[hrandib]

Hi, Thank you very much for the solution. Is it assumed that it will be resolved in the future and the direct way also will be available?

[nicolargo]

@kanyck Yes, it will be corrected in the next release.

[nicolargo]

Done on the develop branch (see commit 1bed69bc).

To be tested !

[gauvins2]

Perhaps late to the party (just back home).

The latest Glances 3.2.7 fixes display for *the first jc42 entry. *(see attached screen capture)
