Install Flow
How to self-host Glances
Glances can be deployed with standard Docker Compose using the Yantr app catalog. This page collects the basic information searchers usually need first: what Glances does, which Docker image Yantr uses, default ports, deployment notes, and where to find the original compose template.
After deployment, Yantr lets you publish additional ports from the stack page using Docker-style syntax. Use 8080:8080 for a fixed host port or just 8080 to let Docker assign a random port.
Use Cases
What people run it for
- Monitor server performance in real-time through the web interface.
- Track Docker container resource usage alongside host metrics.
- Set up alerts when CPU, memory, or disk exceeds thresholds.
- View historical data by exporting to time-series databases.
