CakeServerMonitor
-----------------

[](#cakeservermonitor)

CakePHP 3 Plugin for Monitoring Server Stats

Installation
------------

[](#installation)

- To install the CakeServerMonitor plugin, you can use composer. From your application's ROOT directory (where composer.json file is located) run the following:

    `composer require watchowl/cake-server-monitor`
- You will need to add the following line to your application's `config/bootstrap.php` file:

    `Plugin::load('Watchowl/CakeServerMonitor',['bootstrap' => true]);`

Notification
------------

[](#notification)

CakeServerMonitor currently supports notification via email. You can configure recipients' email addresses in your applications 'config/bootstrap.php' file using overwriting the *CakeServerMonitor.email.recipients* key:

```
Configure::write(
    'CakeServerMonitor.email.recipients',
    ['my-first-email@address.com','my-second-email@address.com']
);
```

Scheduling task
---------------

[](#scheduling-task)

The last step to make this work is to add a cron job. You can do so by adding a similar line as shown below to your system's crontab file. Do remember to update the path to your own project. The following cron job runs at 1 am every day, you can change it to your own preference.

`* 1 * * * cd path && bin/cake monitor run`

Customisation
-------------

[](#customisation)

CakeServerMonitor does provide some customisation options.

- **Changing email profile**

by default CakeServerMonitor uses the *default*profile to send an email. You can change it to your own preference using the *CakeServerMonitor.email.profile* key:

```
Configure::write(
    'CakeServerMonitor.email.profile',
    'debug'
);
```

- **Changing checking stats**

by default CakeServerMonitor checks following stats:

- Disk Space
- MySql Process
- Nginx Process
- Php5Fpm Process

Under the hood, each checker is actually a class under WatchOwl namespace. You can overwrite what checkers to run via the *CakeServerMonitor.commands* key:

```
Configure::write(
    'CakeServerMonitor.commands',
    [
        'disk_space' => 'WatchOwl\CakeServerMonitor\CommandDefinition\DiskSpace',
        'mysql' => 'WatchOwl\CakeServerMonitor\CommandDefinition\MySql',
        'nginx' => 'WatchOwl\CakeServerMonitor\CommandDefinition\Nginx',
        'php5fpm' => 'WatchOwl\CakeServerMonitor\CommandDefinition\Php5Fpm',
    ]
);
```

You can remove any checkers above so it won't run.

- **Creating your own checker**

As you might have already guessed, you can create your own checker to extend CakeServerMonitor's abilities. To do so, creates a class extends from *WatchOwl\\CakeServerMonitor\\CommandDefinition\\CommandDefinition* abstract class and implement its defined abstract methods.

After that, add your own checker to the *CakeServerMonitor.commands* key as shown in previous section.
