Make The Output Of Ping Command Prettier And Easier To Read
|
||||
======
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
As we all know, the **ping** command is used to check if a target host is reachable or not. Using Ping command, we can send ICMP Echo request to our target host, and verify whether the destination host is up or down. If you use ping command often, I’d like to recommend you to try **“Prettyping”**. Prettyping is just a wrapper for the standard ping tool and makes the output of the ping command prettier, easier to read, colorful and compact. The prettyping runs the standard ping command in the background and parses the output with colors and unicode characters. It is free and open source tool written in **Bash** and **awk** and supports most Unix-like operating systems such as GNU/Linux, FreeBSD and Mac OS X. Prettyping is not only used to make the output of ping command prettier, but also ships with other notable features as listed below.
|
||||
|
||||
* Detects the lost or missing packets and marks them in the output.
|
||||
* Shows live statistics. The statistics are constantly updated after each response is received, while ping only shows after it ends.
|
||||
* Smart enough to handle “unknown messages” (like error messages) without messing up the output.
|
||||
* Avoids printing the repeated messages.
|
||||
* You can use most common ping parameters with Prettyping.
|
||||
* Can run as normal user.
|
||||
* Can be able to redirect the output to a file.
|
||||
* Requires no installation. Just download the binary, make it executable and run.
|
||||
* Fast and lightweight.
|
||||
* And, finally makes the output pretty, colorful and very intuitive.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
### Installing Prettyping
|
||||
|
||||
Like I said already, Prettyping does not requires any installation. It is portable application! Just download the Prettyping binary file using command:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
$ curl -O https://raw.githubusercontent.com/denilsonsa/prettyping/master/prettyping
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Move the binary file to your $PATH, for example **/usr/local/bin**.
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
$ sudo mv prettyping /usr/local/bin
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
And, make it executable as like below:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
$ sudo chmod +x /usr/local/bin/prettyping
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
It’s that simple.
|
||||
|
||||
### Let us Make The Output Of Ping Command Prettier And Easier To Read
|
||||
|
||||
Once installed, ping any host or IP address and see the ping command output in graphical way.
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
$ prettyping ostechnix.com
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Here is the visually displayed ping output:
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
If you run Prettyping without any arguments, it will keep running until you manually stop it by pressing **Ctrl+c**.
|
||||
|
||||
Since Prettyping is just a wrapper to the ping command, you can use most common ping parameters. For instance, you can use **-c** flag to ping a host only a specific number of times, for example **5** :
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
$ prettyping -c 5 ostechnix.com
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
By default, prettynping displays the output in colored format. Don’t like the colored output? No problem! Use `--nocolor` option.
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
$ prettyping --nocolor ostechnix.com
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Similarly, you can disable mult-color support using `--nomulticolor` option:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
$ prettyping --nomulticolor ostechnix.com
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
To disable unicode characters, use `--nounicode` option:
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
This can be useful if your terminal does not support **UTF-8**. If you can’t fix the unicode (fonts) in your system, simply pass `--nounicode` option.
|
||||
|
||||
Prettyping can redirect the output to a file as well. The following command will write the output of `prettyping ostechnix.com` command in `ostechnix.txt` file.
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
$ prettyping ostechnix.com | tee ostechnix.txt
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Prettyping has few more options which helps you to do various tasks, such as,
|
||||
|
||||
* Enable/disable the latency legend. (default value is: enabled)
|
||||
* Force the output designed to a terminal. (default: auto)
|
||||
* Use the last “n” pings at the statistics line. (default: 60)
|
||||
* Override auto-detection of terminal dimensions.
|
||||
* Override the awk interpreter. (default: awk)
|
||||
* Override the ping tool. (default: ping)
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
For more details, view the help section:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
$ prettyping --help
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Even though Prettyping doesn’t add any extra functionality, I personally like the following feature implementations in it:
|
||||
|
||||
* Live statistics – You can see all the live statistics all the time. The standard ping command will only shows the statistics after it ends.
|
||||
* Compact – You can see a longer timespan at your terminal.
|
||||
* Prettyping detects missing responses.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
If you’re ever looking for a way to visually display the output of the ping command, Prettyping will definitely help. Give it a try, you won’t be disappointed.
|
||||
|
||||
And, that’s all for now. Hope this was useful. More good stuffs to come. Stay tuned!

如何让 Ping 的输出更简单易读
|
||||
======
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
众所周知，`ping` 命令可以用来检查目标主机是否可达。使用 `ping` 命令的时候，会发送一个 ICMP Echo 请求，通过目标主机的响应与否来确定目标主机的状态。如果你经常使用 `ping` 命令，你可以尝试一下 `prettyping`。Prettyping 只是将一个标准的 ping 工具增加了一层封装，在运行标准 ping 命令的同时添加了颜色和 unicode 字符解析输出，所以它的输出更漂亮紧凑、清晰易读。它是用 `bash` 和 `awk` 编写的免费开源工具，支持大部分类 Unix 操作系统，包括 GNU/Linux、FreeBSD 和 Mac OS X。Prettyping 除了美化 ping 命令的输出，还有很多值得注意的功能。
|
||||
|
||||
* 检测丢失的数据包并在输出中标记出来。
|
||||
* 显示实时数据。每次收到响应后，都会更新统计数据，而对于普通 ping 命令，只会在执行结束后统计。
|
||||
* 能够在输出结果不混乱的前提下灵活处理“未知信息”（例如错误信息）。
|
||||
* 能够避免输出重复的信息。
|
||||
* 兼容常用的 ping 工具命令参数。
|
||||
* 能够由普通用户执行。
|
||||
* 可以将输出重定向到文件中。
|
||||
* 不需要安装，只需要下载二进制文件，赋予可执行权限即可执行。
|
||||
* 快速且轻巧。
|
||||
* 输出结果清晰直观。
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
### 安装 Prettyping
|
||||
|
||||
如上所述，Prettyping 是一个绿色软件，不需要任何安装，只要使用以下命令下载 Prettyping 二进制文件：
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
$ curl -O https://raw.githubusercontent.com/denilsonsa/prettyping/master/prettyping
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
将二进制文件放置到 `$PATH`（例如 `/usr/local/bin`）中：
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
$ sudo mv prettyping /usr/local/bin
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
然后对其赋予可执行权限：
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
$ sudo chmod +x /usr/local/bin/prettyping
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
就可以使用了。
|
||||
|
||||
### 让 ping 的输出清晰易读
|
||||
|
||||
安装完成后，通过 `prettyping` 来 ping 任何主机或 IP 地址，就可以以图形方式查看输出。
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
$ prettyping ostechnix.com
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
输出效果大概会是这样：
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
如果你不带任何参数执行 `prettyping`，它就会一直运行直到被 ctrl + c 中断。
|
||||
|
||||
由于 Prettyping 只是一个对普通 ping 命令的封装，所以常用的 ping 参数也是有效的。例如使用 `-c 5` 来指定 ping 一台主机的 5 次：
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
$ prettyping -c 5 ostechnix.com
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Prettyping 默认会使用彩色输出，如果你不喜欢彩色的输出，可以加上 `--nocolor` 参数：
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
$ prettyping --nocolor ostechnix.com
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
同样的，也可以用 `--nomulticolor` 参数禁用多颜色支持：
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
$ prettyping --nomulticolor ostechnix.com
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
使用 `--nounicode` 参数禁用 unicode 字符：
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
如果你的终端不支持 **UTF-8**，或者无法修复系统中的 unicode 字体，只需要加上 `--nounicode` 参数就能轻松解决。
|
||||
|
||||
Prettyping 支持将输出的内容重定向到文件中，例如执行以下这个命令会将 `prettyping ostechnix.com` 的输出重定向到 `ostechnix.txt` 中：
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
$ prettyping ostechnix.com | tee ostechnix.txt
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Prettyping 还有很多选项帮助你完成各种任务，例如：
|
||||
|
||||
* 启用/禁用延时图例（默认启用）
|
||||
* 强制按照终端的格式输出（默认自动）
|
||||
* 在统计数据中统计最后的 n 次 ping（默认 60 次）
|
||||
* 覆盖对终端尺寸的检测
|
||||
* 覆盖 awk 解释器（默认不覆盖）
|
||||
* 覆盖 ping 工具（默认不覆盖）
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
查看帮助文档可以了解更多：
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
$ prettyping --help
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
尽管 prettyping 没有添加任何额外功能，但我个人喜欢它的这些优点：
|
||||
|
||||
* 实时统计 - 可以随时查看所有实时统计信息，标准 `ping` 命令只会在命令执行结束后才显示统计信息。
|
||||
* 紧凑的显示 - 可以在终端看到更长的时间跨度。
|
||||
* 检测丢失的数据包并显示出来。
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
如果你一直在寻找可视化显示 `ping` 命令输出的工具，那么 Prettyping 肯定会有所帮助。尝试一下，你不会失望的。
