procsentry v0.1.0

Choose a tag to compare

@binRick binRick released this 16 Jun 02:17

Interactive process picker + live exec() tracer for the terminal.

Type to search a ps --forest tree — the search is subtree-aware, so
searching sshd shows sshd and every process running under it. Select one or
more processes and watch a colour-tagged tree of every program their subtrees
exec(), captured via extrace.
Mouse wheel/click, hold-to-accelerate scrolling, and a kitty-graphics backdrop
where supported (cells everywhere else).

Install

RHEL / Rocky / Alma 9 (RPM)

sudo dnf install ./procsentry-0.1.0-1.el9.x86_64.rpm
sudo procsentry-gfx

Prebuilt binary (EL9+ x86_64)

tar xzf procsentry-linux-x86_64.tar.gz
sudo ./procsentry-linux-x86_64/procsentry-gfx

From source — termpaint is vendored, so just make (see the README).

Requirements

The trace pane needs Linux + root and extrace installed on the host (it
uses the kernel proc connector). The process picker works anywhere ps does.
