I'm trying to implement the below example in Django and list all process inside a table but I have hard times to display the information in the template.
I ran this code in a python file and it's outputs multiple lists (one per process) as below

import psutil

for p in psutil.process_iter(attrs=['pid', 'username', 'status', 'cpu_percent', 'memory_percent', 'memory_info', 'name']):

    process_info = [p.pid, p.info['username'], p.info['status'], p.info['memory_info'].rss, p.info['cpu_percent'], p.info['memory_percent'], p.info['name']]

    print(process_info)



[1, 'root', 'sleeping', 9142272, 0.0, 0.009034306321108227, 'systemd']

[2, 'root', 'sleeping', 0, 0.0, 0.0, 'kthreadd']

[3, 'root', 'idle', 0, 0.0, 0.0, 'rcu_gp']

[4, 'root', 'idle', 0, 0.0, 0.0, 'rcu_par_gp']

[5, 'root', 'idle', 0, 0.0, 0.0, 'kworker/0:0-events']

[6, 'root', 'idle', 0, 0.0, 0.0, 'kworker/0:0H-kblockd']

[8, 'root', 'idle', 0, 0.0, 0.0, 'mm_percpu_wq']

How can I process all these separate lists and display them as table rows ?

Update: Here is my request in views.py

def processes(request):

    for p in psutil.process_iter(attrs=['pid', 'username', 'status', 'cpu_percent', 'memory_percent', 'memory_info', 'name']):

    process_info = [p.pid, p.info['username'], p.info['status'], p.info['memory_info'].rss, p.info['cpu_percent'], p.info['memory_percent'], p.info['name']]





    context_processes = {'process_info': process_info }

    return render(request, 'lwp_admin/processes.html', context_processes )

Below is the Django code in the template used for output:

<table class="table table-bordered table-responsive table-striped table-condensed">

                  <thead class="bg-green-gradient">

                    <tr>

                        <th scope="col" class="col-xs-1 text-center">PID</th>

                        <th scope="col" class="col-xs-1 text-center">Owner</th>

                        <th scope="col" class="col-xs-1 text-center">Status</th>

                        <th scope="col" class="col-xs-1 text-center">RSS</th>

                        <th scope="col" class="col-xs-1 text-center">CPU usage (%)</th>

                        <th scope="col" class="col-xs-1 text-center">MEM usage (%)</th>

                        <th scope="col" class="col-xs-3 text-center">Command</th>

                    </tr>

                  </thead>

                  <tbody>

                      {% for proc in context_processes.process_info %}

                      <tr>

                          <td>{{ proc }}</td>

                      </tr>

                      {% endfor %}

                  </tbody>

</table>

Edit: based on new info
You've already created a context dictionary and assigned it to context_processes. You don't pass a dictionary of a dictionary to render().

Change your view code to:

return render(request, 'lwp_admin/processes.html', context_processes )

In your template you can loop through the passed context like this

<tr>

    {% for proc in process_info %}

        <td>{{ proc }}</td>

    {% endfor %}

</tr>

For ref, may still be helpful on how to pass context to templates

Are you adding the dictionary you've generated into the view context? You can append to the context dictionary in your view method before passing it onto the template.

If your view is a function you just do so while building your context and pass it to the render(request, template, context) function. https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/2.1/topics/http/views/

If you are using class based views you can either, override or add get_context_data() method, depending on the base View class you are inheriting from. see example https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/2.1/topics/class-based-views/generic-display/#adding-extra-context

In your template you can access the context values via the key you saved to it. e.g

{{ name }}

{{ pid }}

{{ username }}

see template docs https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/2.1/topics/templates/#variables
hope that helps

OK finally I managed to solve this:

the views.py code is listed below

def processes(request):

proc_objects = 

for p in psutil.process_iter(attrs=['pid', 'username', 'cpu_percent', 'memory_percent', 'memory_info', 'name']):

    process_info = [p.pid, p.info['username'], round(p.info['memory_info'].rss), p.info['cpu_percent'],p.info['memory_percent'], p.info['name']]

    proc_objects.append(process_info)

    td_buttons = ['hangup', 'terminate', 'kill']



context_processes = {'proc_objects': proc_objects, 'td_buttons': td_buttons }

return render(request, 'lwp_admin/processes.html', context_processes)

The template code is for this is listed below:

 <table class="table table-bordered table-responsive table-striped table-condensed">

              <thead class="bg-maroon-gradient">

                <tr>

                    <th scope="col" class="col-xs-1 text-center">PID</th>

                    <th scope="col" class="col-xs-1 text-center">Owner</th>

                    <th scope="col" class="col-xs-1 text-center">RSS</th>

                    <th scope="col" class="col-xs-1 text-center">CPU usage (%)</th>

                    <th scope="col" class="col-xs-1 text-center">MEM usage (%)</th>

                    <th scope="col" class="col-xs-3 text-center">Command</th>

                    <th scope="col" class="text-center">Hang Up</th>

                    <th scope="col" class="text-center">Terminate</th>

                    <th scope="col" class="text-center">Kill</th>

                </tr>

              </thead>

              <tbody>

              {% for process_info in proc_objects %}

                  <tr class="text-center">

                      {% for proc in process_info %}

                          <td>{{ proc }}</td>

                      {% endfor %}

                      <td><button type="button" class="btn btn-primary">Hang Up</button></td>

                      <td><button type="button" class="btn btn-warning">Terminate</button></td>

                      <td><button type="button" class="btn btn-danger">Kill</button></td>

                  </tr>

              {% endfor %}

              </tbody>

          </table>

The output for this is:
