Instantly make your loops show a smart progress meter and stats - just replace any pipe "`|`" with "`| tqdm |`", and you're done! ``` $ seq 9999999 | tqdm --bytes | wc -l 75.2MB [00:00, 217MB/s] 9999999 $ 7z a -bd -r backup.7z docs/ | grep Compressing | \ tqdm --total $(find docs/ -type f | wc -l) --unit files >> backup.log 100%|███████████████████████████████▉| 8014/8014 [01:37<00:00, 82.29files/s] ``` Overhead is low -- about 60ns per iteration. In addition to its low overhead, `tqdm` uses smart algorithms to predict the remaining time and to skip unnecessary iteration displays, which allows for a negligible overhead in most cases. `tqdm` works on any platform (Linux, Windows, Mac, FreeBSD, NetBSD, Solaris/SunOS), in any console or in a GUI, and is also friendly with IPython/Jupyter notebooks. `tqdm` does not require any dependencies, just an environment supporting `carriage return \r` and `line feed \n` control characters. ### Package name * tqdm --- ### License * MIT OR MPL-2.0 --- ### Last updated * 11 September 2026 - latest/stable * 20 September 2026 - latest/edge --- ### Websites * [github.com/tqdm/tqdm](https://github.com/tqdm/tqdm "https://github.com/tqdm/tqdm") --- ### Contact * [tqdm@caspersci.uk.to](mailto:tqdm@caspersci.uk.to "mailto:tqdm@caspersci.uk.to") --- ##### Report a Snap Store violation * [Report this Snap](https://snapcraft.io/install/tqdm/opensuse#report-snap-modal) --- ## Enable snaps on openSUSE and install tqdm Snaps are applications packaged with all their dependencies to run on all popular Linux distributions from a single build. They update automatically and roll back gracefully. Snaps are discoverable and installable from the [Snap Store](https://snapcraft.io/store), an app store with an audience of millions. ### Enable snapd Snap can be installed from the command line on openSUSE Leap 15.x and Tumbleweed. You need first add the *snappy* repository from the terminal. Choose the appropriate command depending on your installed openSUSE flavor. Tumbleweed: ``` sudo zypper addrepo --refresh https://download.opensuse.org/repositories/system:/snappy/openSUSE_Tumbleweed snappy ``` Leap 15.x: ``` sudo zypper addrepo --refresh https://download.opensuse.org/repositories/system:/snappy/openSUSE_Leap_15.6 snappy ``` If needed, Swap out `openSUSE_Leap_15.` for, `openSUSE_Leap_16.0` if you’re using a different version of openSUSE. With the repository added, import its GPG key: ``` sudo zypper --gpg-auto-import-keys refresh ``` Finally, upgrade the package cache to include the new *snappy* repository: ``` sudo zypper dup --from snappy ``` Snap can now be installed with the following: ``` sudo zypper install snapd ``` You then need to either reboot, logout/login or `source /etc/profile` to have /snap/bin added to PATH. Additionally, enable and start both the *snapd* and the *snapd.apparmor* services with the following commands: ``` sudo systemctl enable --now snapd sudo systemctl enable --now snapd.apparmor ``` ### Install tqdm To install tqdm, simply use the following command: ``` sudo snap install tqdm ``` ### Other popular snaps… [See more...](https://snapcraft.io/search?categories=featured) [See more in Featured](https://snapcraft.io/search?categories=featured) ### More things to do… #### [Get the snap store](https://snapcraft.io/snap-store) Browse and find snaps from the convenience of your desktop using the snap store snap. #### [Learn more about snaps](https://snapcraft.io/docs) Interested to find out more about snaps?
