xStats

xStats is a server/client application that can be used to gather server statistics and send them to a central location, and can then be stored or otherwise used for whatever purpose you might have.

Currently 2 modules have been written for the aggregator (server), one that exposes a websocket one can connect to to receive stats, and one that stores them in redis.

Installation

1. Create a virtualenv (optional)
2. Install requirements pip install -r requirements.txt
3. Configure reporter/aggregator using example from config-example/
4. Run using xstats-server -c <config> or xstats-reporter -c <config>

xDash

xDash is an example dashboard written using Coffeescript that showcases the use of the websocket module, it's configurable for multiple servers however optimal use would probably be between 4-8 servers.

Installation

1. Make sure that the Websocket module is enabled on the aggregator
2. Copy the contents of xdash/static/ to a folder accessible from the web or run xdash/run.py (requires Bottle) to make the files accessible
3. Copy config.js.example to config.js and configure it for your set-up
4. Browse to whatever URL the dashboard is accessible on and it should work.
