[](#phpglances)

A PHP library for the Glances XML/RPC API

What is Glances?

- [Glances](https://github.com/nicolargo/glances.git) is a CLI system monitor written in Python

What does this library do?

- If Glances is run as `glances -s` then information can be retrieved from it using an XML/RPC API

Read the specification of the Glances API:

-

Dependencies: Per default, any extensions are useful. But if extensions [PHP-Curl](http://php.net/manual/fr/book.curl.php), [PHP-JSON](http://php.net/manual/fr/book.json.php), [PHP-SimpleXML](http://php.net/manual/fr/book.simplexml.php) and [PHP-XML-RPC](http://php.net/manual/fr/book.xmlrpc.php) are load, then PHPGlances will be more optimal.

Example usage:

```
  include_once '../PHPGlances/PHPGlances.php';

  $oGlances = new PHPGlances('http://127.0.0.1', 61209);
  $bAlive = $oGlances->pingServer();
  if(!$bAlive){
    echo 'Can\'t connect to the server';
  } else {
    $res = $oGlances->listMethods();
    echo 'listMethods : ';
    echo '';
    foreach($res as $item){
      echo ''.$item.'';
    }
    echo '';

    echo 'getCore : ';
    echo 'Core : '.$oGlances->getCore().'';
    echo '';
  }
```
