Overview

Ostat is an extremely lightweight Linux daemon that provides basic systems metrics in json via a TCP server. Values are background refreshed on a -update-int seconds intervals and stored in memory for access.

Ostat includes the ofetch tool (utils/ofetch) for quickly gathering metrics from a whole network of hosts in a highly parallelized fashion.

Usage

$ ostat -h
Usage of ./ostat:
  -listen string
        Listen address:port (default "localhost:8080")
  -update-int int
        Metrics update interval (default 30)

Output with comments:

$ echo "stats" | nc localhost 8080 | jq '.'
