Install

Can be installed via go get:

go get github.com/nats-io/nats-top

Usage

usage: nats-top [-s server] [-m http_port] [-ms https_port] [-n num_connections] [-d delay_secs] [-sort by]
                [-cert FILE] [-key FILE ][-cacert FILE] [-k]

• -m http_port, -ms https_port

  Monitoring http and https ports from the NATS server.

• -n num_connections

  Limit the connections requested to the server (default: 1024)

• -d delay_in_secs

  Screen refresh interval (default: 1 second).

• -sort by

  Field to use for sorting the connections.

• -cert, -key, -cacert

  Client certificate, key and RootCA for monitoring via https.

• -k

  Configure to skip verification of certificate.

Commands

While in top view, it is possible to use the following commands:

• o [option]

  Set primary sort key to [option]:

  Keyname may be one of: {cid, subs, msgs_to, msgs_from, bytes_to, bytes_from, idle, last}

  This can be set in the command line too, e.g. nats-top -sort bytes_to

• n [limit]

  Set sample size of connections to request from the server.

  This can be set in the command line as well: nats-top -n 1 Note that if used in conjunction with sort, the server would respect both options enabling queries like connection with largest number of subscriptions: nats-top -n 1 -sort subs

• s

  Toggle displaying connection subscriptions.

• d

  Toggle activating DNS address lookup for clients.

• ?

  Show help message with options.

• q

  Quit nats-top.
