A simple monitoring application for websites and MySQL

Configuration

Configuration goes in config.json. You can start by copying config-sample.json to config.json. Statis perceives all endpoints to be monitored as nodes and provides support for http, mysql and sockets in general.

It is also possible to have multiple configuration files. Create a new file i.e. config2.json in any directory according to the structure defined in config-sample.json. The new configuration file can be passed during execution via -c option as follows:

node console.js -c config2.json

{
	"nodes": [
		{
			"label": "Google",
			"http": {
				"hostname": "google.com",
				"port": 80,
				"path": "/",
				"method": "GET"
			}
		}
	]
}

Here is an example for configuring http nodes

{
	"label": "Google",
	"http": {
		"hostname": "google.com",
		"port": 80,
		"path": "/",
		"method": "GET"
	}
}

Here is an example for configuring socket nodes

{
	"label": "Google",
	"socket": {
		"host": "google.com",
		"port": 80
	}
}

Here is an example for configuring mysql nodes

{
	"label": "Localhost MySQL",
	"mysql": {
		"host": "127.0.0.1",
		"user": "root",
		"password": "root"
	}
}
