Glossary
- built-in constant
- Constant values(empty,zero,0,100%), semi-constant values(run-time min, run-time max)
available as graph edge
- configuration file
- System-wide configuration file :file:/usr/etc/csensors/config
is read only if per-user file :file:~/.conf/csensors/config doesn’t exists
- data description
- Plain text files containing detailed description of entries
interesting for csensors. System-wide files are expected in :file:/usr/etc/csensors/data.d
per-user files :file:~/.conf/csensors/data.d/ .
All data description must be in csensors’s data description format.
- data directory
- System-wide or per-user directory containing data description broken down
by logical device and represented as individual files.
System-wide files are expected in :file:/usr/etc/csensors/data.d/
per-user files :file:~/.conf/csensors/data.d/ .
- data page
- Part of csensors GUI. Variable, constants, texts and array viewer.
- default gradients
- green-yellow-orange-red gradient labeled as less is better
- red-orange-yellow-green gradient labeled as more is better
- device
- Subset of data description containing data for particular logical device e.g. Core 0
or BAT0 which is represented as individual file in data directory
- gradient(s) configuration
- Plain text file in key-value format describing particular gradient(s).
per-user file :file:~/.conf/csensors/gradient. Use csensors-config gradients
page to manage gradients.
- graph
- Data visualization created by the merge of run-time data and graph configuration
- graph configuration
- Plain text file (or part of) in key-value format describing particular graph
Graph(s) configuration file.
- graph edge
- graph min or graph max
- graph key
- Variable for visualization e.g. Core 0 temperature or Battery voltage
- graph min
- Constant value from same device as graph key or from built-in constant.
Serves as lower or left edge of visualization .
- graph max
- Constant value from same device as graph key or from built-in constant.
Serves as upper or right edge of visualization .
- live graph sample
- Visualization of graph in csensors-config, exactly the same as in csensors-applet (excluding geometry and title)
- max
- graph max
- min
- graph min
