top-plugin
Cloud Foundry command-line cf plugin for showing live statistics of the targeted cloud foundry foundation.
You must be logged in as 'admin' user or assign permissions to the cloud foundry user as
described in the installation instructions below for this plugin to function.
The live statistics include application statistics and diego cell statistics amoung others.
The primary source of information that the top plugin uses is from monitoring the cloud foundry firehose.

stats:
- APPLICATION - Application name
- SPACE - Space name
- ORG - Organization name
- DRC - Total desired containers (configured instances of app)
- RCR - Total reporting containers
- CPU% - Total CPU percent consumed by all containers
- MEM - Total memory used by all containers
- DISK - Total disk used by all containers
- RESP - Avg response time in milliseconds over last 60 seconds
- LOG_OUT - Total number of stdout log events
- LOG_ERR - Total number of stderr log events
- REQ/1 - HTTP(S) request/responses in last 1 second that have gone through go-router
- REQ/10 - HTTP(S) request/responses in last 10 seconds that have gone through go-router
- REQ/60 - HTTP(S) request/responses in last 60 seconds that have gone through go-router
- TOT-REQ - All of the HTTP(S) responses that have gone through go-router

such as which containers are currenly running on the cell.
- IP - The IP address of the diego cell
- CPU% - Container CPU percent usage
- RCR - Number of container that have reported in
- CPUS - Number of CPUs assigned to this diego cell
- TOT_MEM -
- FREE_MEM -
- C_RSVD_MEM -
- C_USD_MEM -
- TOT_DISK -
- FREE_DISK -
- C_RSVD_DSK -
- C_USD_DSK -
- MAX_CNTR -
- CNTRS - Number of containers cell thinks it has running
- DNAME - BOSH deployment name
- JOB_NAME - BOSH job name
- JOB_IDX - BOSH deployment index
Installation
- Download the binary file for your target OS from the latest release
- If you've already installed the plugin and are updating, you must first run
cf uninstall-plugin top
- Then install the plugin with
cf install-plugin top-plugin-darwin

)
- If you get a permission error run:
chmod +x top-plugin-darwin
(or top-plugin-linux
) on the binary

TODO: Register plugin with the community cloud foundry plugins website (https://plugins.cloudfoundry.org/)
Assign needed permissions
To use this plugin you must be logged in as 'admin' or assign two permissions
to an existing cloud foundry user. To assign needed permissions:
Install the uaac client CLI if you do not already have it:
gem install cf-uaac
Login and add two permission. Note that the UAA password is NOT the
"Admin Credentials", the password is found in the ERT under Credentials tab,
look for password for "Admin Client Credentials".
uaac token client get admin -s [UAA Admin Client Credentials]
uaac member add cloud_controller.admin [username]
uaac member add doppler.firehose [username]
Note: The change in permissions does not take effect until user username performs
a logout and login.
Usage
User must be logged in as admin or cloud foundry user with permissions as described above.
The plugin does not require any arguments. Simply run:
cf top
Options
List top live statistics for CF.
