✨ SCAPHANDRE(1) — the scaphandre json era ✨

okay so bestie, welcome to the json corner of scaphandre, the user-command manual that literally hands you your metrics in cute little curly braces. pull up a chair, grab a boba 🧋, and let's get into it. 💖

🌸 NAME 🌸

scaphandre json — write the metrics in the JSON format to a file or to stdout 💅

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

scaphandre json [OPTIONS]

🌈 DESCRIPTION 🌈

Write the metrics in the JSON format to a file or to stdout. that's it, that's the whole vibe ✨

👑 OPTIONS 👑

  • -t, --timeout <TIMEOUT> — maximum time spent measuring, in seconds. if you don't specify it, it just runs forever, no cap, main character energy that never clocks out 😭
  • -s, --step <SECONDS> — the interval between two measurements, in seconds [default: 2] ⏱️
  • --step-nano <NANOSECS> — extra step duration, in nano seconds. this gets added onto step to get the final duration [default: 0] 🧚
  • --max-top-consumers <MAX_TOP_CONSUMERS> — the maximum number of processes to watch [default: 10] 👀
  • -f, --file <FILE> — the destination file for the report. if it's absent, the report gets printed to stdout instead 🫶
  • --containers — monitor and apply labels for processes running as containers 🍓
  • --process-regex <PROCESS_REGEX> — filter processes based on regular expressions (example: 'scaph\\w\\w.e') 💀
  • --container-regex <CONTAINER_REGEX> — filter containers based on regular expressions 🌸
  • --resources — monitor and include CPU, RAM and Disk usage per process 🔥
  • -h, --help — print help ✨
ngl, if you skip -t and -f, you're just gonna be staring at infinite JSON in your terminal forever. iconic behaviour, but maybe give it a timeout, bestie 🙈

and that's a wrap on the manual page, periodt 💖
