Parse CPU per core usage snapshot to output/text file

Question

I am working on a python script to read CPU usage per core and do some data analysis. 'htop' can show a dynamic usage on standard output but it's not readable by the program.

Is there a way to log snapshot of 'htop' to a text file or standard output?

[read this](https://www.geeksforgeeks.org/how-to-get-current-cpu-and-ram-usage-in-python/) maybe help you — r3a9670, Jul 11 '22 at 17:06
`vmstat` and similar logging tools exist. IDK which ones support per-core stats, though. — Peter Cordes, Jul 13 '22 at 06:02

if you have nodejs installed, you can use this package

https://github.com/sweetim/linux-top-parser

it will parse the top output into json, you can access them using the API or the CLI
