# 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;
	}
}
```
