All notable changes to this project will be documented in this file.
The format is based on Keep a Changelog, and this project adheres to Semantic Versioning.
Types of changes:
- Added: for new features.
- Changed: for changes in existing functionality.
- Deprecated: for soon-to-be removed features.
- Removed: for now removed features.
- Fixed: for any bug fixes.
- Security: in case of vulnerabilities.
Command line options have changed.
- Adds support for system-wide configurations. This improves support for package maintainers.
- Help function to print key bindings.
- Help prints locations of config files (color schemes & layouts).
- Help prints location of logs.
- CLI option to scale out (#84).
- Ability to report network traffic rates as mbps (#46).
- Ignore lines matching
/^#.*/
in layout files. - Instructions for Gentoo (thanks @tormath1!)
- Graph labels that don't fit (vertically) in the window are now drawn in additional columns (#40)
- Adds ability to filter reported temperatures (#92)
- Command line option to list layouts, paths, colorschemes, hotkeys, and filterable devices
- Adds ability to write out a configuration file
- Log files stored in $XDG_CACHE_HOME; DATA, CONFIG, CACHE, and RUNTIME are the only directories specified by the FreeDesktop spec.
- Extensions are now built with a build tool; this is an interim solution until issues with the Go plugin API are resolved.
- Command line help text is cleaned up.
- configdir, logdir, and logfile options in the config file are no longer used. gotop looks for a configuration file, layouts, and colorschemes in the following order: command-line;
pwd
; user-home, and finally a system-wide path. The paths depend on the OS and whether XDG is in use. - Removes the deprecated
--minimal
and--battery
options. Use-l minimal
and-l battery
instead.
- Help & statusbar don't obey theme (#47).
- Fix help text layout.
- Merged fix from @markuspeloquin for custom color scheme loading crash
- Memory line colors were inconsistently assigned (#91)
- The disk code was truncating values instead of rounding (#90)
- Temperatures on Darwin were all over the place, and wrong (#48)
- Config file loading from
~/.config/gotop
wasn't working - There were a number of minor issues with the config file that have been cleaned up.
This is a bug fix release.
- Removes verbose debugging unintentionally left in the code (#85)
- kitchensink referenced by, but not included in binary is now included (#72)
- Safety check prevents uninitialized colorscheme registry use
- Updates instructions on where to put colorschemes and layouts (#75)
- Trying to use a non-installed plugin should fail, not silently continue (#77)
- Improved documentation about installing layouts and colorschemes
The version jump from 3.3.x is due to some work in the build automation that necessitated a number of bumps to test the build/release, and testing compiling plugins from github repositories.
- Device data export via HTTP. If run with the
--export :2112
flag (:2112
is a port), metrics are exposed as Prometheus metrics on that port. - A battery gauge as a
power
widget; battery as a bar rather than a histogram. - Temp widget displays degree symbol (merged from BartWillems, thanks also fleaz)
- Support for (device) plugins, and abstracting devices from widgets. This allows adding functionality without adding bulk. See the plugins decision wiki section for more information.
- Keys not controlling process widget, #59
- The one-column bug, #62
Bugfix release.
- #15, crash caused by battery widget when some accessories have batteries
- #57, colors with dashes in the name not found.
- Also, cjbassi#127 and cjbassi#130 were released back in v3.1.0.
- Fixed: Fixes a layout bug where, if columns filled up early, widgets would be consumed but not displayed.
- Fixed: Rolled back dependency update on github.com/shirou/gopsutil; the new version has a bug that causes cores to not be seen.
- Added: Logs are now rotated. Settings are currently hard-coded at 4 files of 5MB each, so logs shouldn't take up more than 20MB. I'm going to see how many complain about wanting to configure these settings before I add code to do that.
- Added: Config file support. $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/gotop/gotop.conf can now contain any field in Config. Syntax is simply KEY=VALUE. Values in config file are overridden by command-line arguments (although, there's a weakness in that there's no way to disable boolean fields enabled in the config).
- Changed: Colorscheme registration is changed to be less hard-coded. Colorschemes can now be created and added to the repo, without having to also add hard-coded references elsewhere.
- Changed: Minor code refactoring to support Config file changes has resulted in better isolation.
