Install

Glances is on PyPI. By using PyPI, you are sure to have the latest stable version.

To install, simply use pip:

pip install glances

Note: Python headers are required to install psutil. For example, on Debian/Ubuntu you need to install first the python-dev package. For Fedora/CentOS/RHEL install first python-devel package. For Windows, just install psutil from the binary installation file.

You can also install the following libraries in order to use optional features (like the Web interface, export modules…):

pip install glances[all]

To upgrade Glances and all its dependencies to the latest versions:

pip install --upgrade glances
pip install --upgrade psutil
pip install --upgrade glances[all]
