How to display list of running processes Python?
Question:
How to display list of running processes Python with full name and active status?
I tried this command: pgrep -lf python
Answers:
ps -aux will give all process grep python
ps -aux | grep python
Try this command:
ps -ef | grep python
ps stands for process status
You could also setup a “watch” in a separate window to constantly monitor Python processes as you run a script: watch -n 1 "ps u -C python3". Particularly useful when developing with multiprocessing.
View 1 shows me all threads of python running, I use this for checking for memory leaks:

ps -ef | grep python
# 502 14950 14484 0 5:58PM ttys000 0:00.00 grep python

ps aux | grep python
# jayrizzo 14957 0.0 0.0 34132060 896 s000 S+ 5:58PM 0:00.00 grep python
All 3 variations provide slightly different results.
Try this command
ps -ef | grep python
ps stands for process status
