📈 Go Resource Monitor

A real-time system resource monitor with a terminal-based dashboard, written in Go.

Features

• CPU Usage: Real-time CPU utilization percentage
• CPU Temperature: Cross-platform CPU temperature monitoring
  • macOS: Uses IORegistry for reliable temperature reading on Apple Silicon and Intel Macs
  • Linux: Uses lm-sensors via gopsutil for temperature monitoring
  • Other platforms: Generic sensor support via gopsutil
• Memory Usage: RAM utilization and detailed memory statistics
• Disk Usage: Storage utilization and I/O metrics
• Network Activity: Real-time network traffic monitoring
• Battery Status: Battery percentage and charging state (laptops)
• GPU Information: GPU utilization and temperature (when available)
• System Uptime: Days, hours, and minutes since boot

Platform-Specific Notes

macOS

• Temperature monitoring uses multiple fallback methods for maximum compatibility
• Works on both Intel and Apple Silicon Macs
• No external dependencies required for basic temperature reading

Linux

• Temperature monitoring requires lm-sensors
• Install sensors: sudo apt-get install lm-sensors (Ubuntu/Debian)
• Configure sensors: sudo sensors-detect

Dependencies

• gopsutil - System and process utilities
• battery - Battery information
• go-m1cpu - Apple Silicon detection
• tview - Terminal UI framework
