Glances is a cross-platform system monitoring tool written in Python.

The Glances Hass.io add-on

About

Glances is a cross-platform monitoring tool which aims to present a maximum of information in a minimum of space through a Web-based interface.

Glances can export all system statistics to InfluxDB, allowing you to look at all your system information and its behavior over time.

Installation

The installation of this add-on is pretty straightforward and not different in comparison to installing any other Hass.io add-on.

  1. Add our Hass.io add-ons repository to your Hass.io instance.
  2. Install the "Glances" add-on.
  3. Disable "Protection mode" in the add-on panel.
  4. Start the "Glances" add-on.
  5. Check the logs of the "Glances" to see if everything went well.
  6. Click the "OPEN WEB UI" button take a glance at Glances.

NOTE: Do not add this repository to Hass.io, please use: https://github.com/hassio-addons/repository.

Configuration

Note: Remember to restart the add-on when the configuration is changed.

Example add-on configuration:

{
  "log_level": "info",
  "ssl": false,
  "certfile": "fullchain.pem",
  "keyfile": "privkey.pem",
  "influxdb": {
    "enabled": false,
    "host": "a0d7b954-influxdb",
    "port": 8086,
    "username": "glances",
    "password": "!secret glances_influxdb_password",
    "database": "glances",
    "interval": 60
  }
}

Note: This is just an example, don't copy and paste it! Create your own!

Option: log_level

The log_level option controls the level of log output by the addon and can be changed to be more or less verbose, which might be useful when you are dealing with an unknown issue. Possible values are:

  • trace: Show every detail, like all called internal functions.
  • debug: Shows detailed debug information.
  • info: Normal (usually) interesting events.
  • warning: Exceptional occurrences that are not errors.
  • error: Runtime errors that do not require immediate action.
  • fatal: Something went terribly wrong. Add-on becomes unusable.

Please note that each level automatically includes log messages from a more severe level, e.g., debug also shows info messages. By default, the log_level is set to info, which is the recommended setting unless you are troubleshooting.

Option: ssl

Enables/Disables SSL (HTTPS) on the Glances Web UI. Set it true to enable it, false otherwise.

Option: certfile

The certificate file to use for SSL.

Note: The file MUST be stored in /ssl/, which is default for Hass.io

Option: keyfile

The private key file to use for SSL.

Note: The file MUST be stored in /ssl/, which is default for Hass.io

Option group influxdb

The following options are for the option group: influxdb. These settings only apply to the Glances InfluxDB data export.

Option influxdb: enabled

Enables/Disables the Glances data export to InfluxDB.

Option influxdb: host

The hostname where InfluxDB is running.

Note: If you are using the Community InfluxDB add-on, use a0d7b954-influxdb as the hostname.

Option influxdb: port

The port on which InfluxDB is listening.

Option influxdb: username

The username that you have created for Glances to authenticate against InfluxDB.

Option influxdb: password

The password for the above username option.

Option influxdb: database

The name of the database to store all Glances information into.

Note: It is strongly recommended to create a separate database for glances and not store this in the same database name as Home Assistant.

Option influxdb: interval

Defines the interval (in seconds) on how often Glances exports data to InfluxDB.

Embedding into Home Assistant

It is possible to embed Glances directly into Home Assistant, allowing you to access Glances through the Home Assistant frontend.

Home Assistant provides the panel_iframe component, for these purposes.

Example configuration:

panel_iframe:
  glances:
    title: Glances
    icon: mdi:speedometer
    url: http://hassio.local:61208
