StatsE16

Overview

StatsE16 is a bitcoin payable web app designed for the 21 Marketplace to allow users to sell statistics about the device they are running. The goal is to use this service to understand what devices are running out there and the capacity of the network. Also metadata such as Up-Time and capacity of individual nodes can be inferred.

Setup

First, get the project and install dependencies.

$ git clone https://github.com/pooleja/StatsE16.git
$ cd StatsE16
$ sudo easy_install pip
$ sudo pip install -r requirements.txt

Next, verify it works. This should output the JSON data showing you stats.

$ python3 statsE16.py

{
    "cpu_count": 4,
    "cpu_used_percent": 2.8,
    "disk_total": 125745487872,
    "disk_used_percent": 61.6,
    "memory_total": 1020764160,
    "memory_used_percent": 10.9,
    "platform_dist": "debian 8.0",
    "platform_release": "4.1.10-v7+",
    "platform_system": "Linux",
    "server": {
        "city": "Atlanta",
        "country": "US",
        "hostname": "108-234-94-217.lightspeed.tukrga.sbcglobal.net",
        "ip": "108.234.94.217",
        "loc": "33.7884,-84.3491",

        "postal": "30306",
        "region": "Georgia"
    }
}

Finally, run it as a daemon to have the service ready for others to consume.

$ python3 statsE16-server.py -d
