Graph
======
You can generate dynamic graphs (SVG format) in a target folder. The generation
starts every time the 'g' key is pressed in the CLI interface (if Glances has been
started with the --export graph option).
The graph export module can be configured through the Glances configuration file:
.. code-block:: ini
[graph]
# Configuration for the --export graph option
# Set the path where the graph (.svg files) will be created
# Can be overwrite by the --graph-path command line option
path=/tmp
# It is possible to generate the graphs automatically by setting the
# generate_every to a non zero value corresponding to the seconds between
# two generation. Set it to 0 to disable graph auto generation.
generate_every=60
# See following configuration keys definitions in the Pygal lib documentation
# http://pygal.org/en/stable/documentation/index.html
width=800
height=600
style=DarkStyle
and run Glances with:
.. code-block:: console
$ glances --export graph --export-graph-path /tmp
