The glances sensor platform is consuming the system information provided by the Glances API. This enables one to track remote host and display their stats in Home Assistant.

This sensors needs a running isntance of glances on the host:

glances -w

    - 'memory_use_percent'
    - 'memory_use'
    - 'memory_free'
    - 'swap_use_percent'
    - 'swap_use'
    - 'swap_free'
    - 'processor_load'
    - 'process_running'
    - 'process_total'
    - 'process_thread'
    - 'process_sleeping'
