It's neat and nice, and it's not intrusive. It comes with a nice CLI interface, but also with an handy WEB GUI interface, which is what i want to leverage here. Note: i stopped using Glances because it had a visible impact on my server performances. ==== Installation ==== Glances is available in Gentoo's Portage, but lacks the FastAPI and Uvcorn dependencies, so it's better to create a dedicated venv as root: <code bash> python -m venv /opt/glances . /opt/glances/bin/activate pip install glances fastapi uvicorn jinja2 </code> ==== Reverse Proxy ==== Glances needs to be set up in the [[selfhost:nginx|reverse proxy]] to be accessed protected behind your [[selfhost:sso|SSO]]: <file - glances.conf> location = /glances { return 301 https://$host/glances/; } location /glances/ { rewrite /glances/(.*) /$1 break; proxy_pass http://localhost:61208/; proxy_set_header Host $http_host; proxy_set_header X-Real-IP $remote_addr; proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for; proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-Proto $scheme; } </file> ==== Autostart ==== Create the following OpenRC start script into **/etc/init.d/glancesweb** and make it exetuable: <file - glancesweb> #!/sbin/openrc-run # Copyright 1999-2021 Gentoo Authors # Distributed under the terms of the GNU General Public License v2 description="Glances web server" pidfile="/run/glancesweb.pid" logfile="/var/log/glancesweb.log" depend() { need net } start() { . /opt/glances/bin/activate /opt/glances/bin/glances -w > ${logfile} 2> ${logfile}& echo $! > ${pidfile} } </file> Then of course, set it to boot: <code bash> rc-update add glancesweb default </code>
