A rich CLI Kubernetes monitor

KubMonitor CLI

A beautiful, nvitop-style Kubernetes monitor for your terminal.

---

✨ Overview

KubMonitor provides a real-time, high-fidelity dashboard for your Kubernetes clusters directly in your terminal. Inspired by tools like nvitop and btop, it combines cluster quotas with local machine metrics in a slick, responsive TUI (Terminal User Interface).

🚀 Features

• 📊 Real-time Dashboard: Live updates of CPU, Memory, and GPU usage.
• ☸️ Namespace Scoped: Monitor specific Kubernetes namespaces with ease.
• 💻 Hybrid Metrics: View both K8s Cluster Quotas and Local Machine stats side-by-side.
• ⚡ Reactive TUI: Built with Refreshed layouts using Rich.
• 🖥️ Cross-Platform: Works seamlessly on Linux, macOS, and Windows.

🎮 Usage

Getting Help

View all available options and usage information:

kubmonitor --help
# or
kubmonitor -h

Check the version:

kubmonitor --version
# or
kubmonitor -V

Monitor a Namespace

Simply run the command followed by the target namespace:

kubmonitor <namespace>

Example:

kubmonitor eidf098ns

If no namespace is specified, it defaults to default:

kubmonitor

Mock Mode (Testing/Debug)

For testing or debugging purposes without requiring access to a Kubernetes cluster, you can use the --mock flag to run KubMonitor with simulated data:

kubmonitor --mock

Note: When using --mock, you cannot specify a namespace. Mock mode uses generated test data and doesn't connect to a real cluster.

This will generate realistic mock data including:

• Simulated resource quotas (CPU, Memory, GPU)
• Mock Kubernetes jobs with various states (running, completed, failed)
• Mock pods with realistic resource usage patterns
• Generated timestamps and durations

Keyboard Shortcuts

🛠️ Technology Stack

• Rich: For beautiful terminal formatting and layout.
• Psutil: For retrieving local system metrics.
• Kubectl: Under the hood, it uses your local kubectl configuration to fetch cluster data.
