Potential-happiness: A Riemann and Elasticsearch dashboard for the terminal

github.com

This looks really neat, I'm going to have to try it out later. Has anyone had any experience with it?

Author here. I'm running this in "production" (kinda, on laptop, looking at data from my own servers), and works for me. There are some annoying shortcomings, though, which I will fix, eventually.

Among them is error reporting and handling: there's pretty much none. If the network dies, potential-happiness will not be too happy: it will cry and crash.

Bug reports, feature requests and whatnot are of course appreciated. I wrote this mostly for my own use, so it isn't exactly friendly just yet. (That, and my JavaScript is terrible.)

This looks nice. I sure wish there was a jvisualvm/jconsole version of this.

Is there anything like blessed + blessed-contrib for either of those? It'd be fairly trivial to write the bulk of potential-happiness in Java, if there was a display library like blessed + blessed-contrib in the JS world.
