Monitorcito

A tiny monitor that gives you the status of a handful of systemd services.

Configuration

This project uses environment variables to change configuration.

MONITORCITO_SERVICES: A comma separated list of services. Required.
MONITORCITO_PORT: A comma separated list of services. Defaults to 1991.

Set NODE_DEBUG=monitorcito if you want to log any output. Otherwise it will be silent.

How to run

Set the appropriate environment variables and run bin/monitorcito.

The Frontend

Monitorcito includes a public directory, this is a frontend that queries the service and refreshes every 5 seconds. The service assumes the API is running in /api.

Here's an example of how to set it up with nginx.

upstream monitorcito {
    server localhost:1991;
    keepalive 64;
}

server {
    listen 80;

    root /home/deploy/src/monitorcito/public;
    index index.html;

    server_name monitor.unlimited.pizza;

    location /api {
        proxy_redirect off;

        proxy_pass http://monitorcito;
    }
}
