### Triggers
|
||||
Triggers allow to perform conditional actions, like visual/sound alerts or an arbitrary shell command.
|
||||
The following examples illustrate the concept.
|
||||
|
||||
#### Clock gauge, which shows minute progress and announce current time at the beginning of each minute
|
||||
|
||||
```yml
|
||||
gauges:
|
||||
- title: MINUTE PROGRESS
|
||||
cur:
|
||||
sample: date +%S
|
||||
max:
|
||||
sample: echo 60
|
||||
min:
|
||||
sample: echo 0
|
||||
triggers:
|
||||
- title: CLOCK BELL EVERY MINUTE
|
||||
condition: '[ $label == "cur" ] && [ $cur -eq 0 ] && echo 1 || echo 0' # expects "1" as TRUE indicator
|
||||
actions:
|
||||
terminal-bell: true # standard terminal bell, default = false
|
||||
sound: true # NASA quindar tone, default = false
|
||||
visual: false # notification with current value on top of the component area, default = false
|
||||
script: say -v samantha `date +%I:%M%p` # an arbitrary script, which can use $cur, $prev and $label variables
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
#### Search engine latency chart, which alerts user when latency exceeds a threshold
|
||||
|
||||
```yml
|
||||
runcharts:
|
||||
- title: SEARCH ENGINE RESPONSE TIME (sec)
|
||||
items:
|
||||
- label: GOOGLE
|
||||
sample: curl -o /dev/null -s -w '%{time_total}' https://www.google.com
|
||||
triggers:
|
||||
- title: Latency threshold exceeded
|
||||
condition: echo "$prev < 0.8 && $cur > 0.8" |bc -l # expects "1" as TRUE indicator
|
||||
actions:
|
||||
terminal-bell: true # standard terminal bell, default = false
|
||||
sound: true # NASA quindar tone, default = false
|
||||
visual: true # visual notification on top of the component area, default = false
|
||||
script: 'say alert: ${label} latency exceeded ${cur} second' # an arbitrary script, which can use $cur, $prev and $label variables
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Interactive shell support
|
||||
In addition to the `sample` command, one can specify `init` command (executed only once before sampling) and `transform` command (to post-process `sample` command output). That covers interactive shell use case, e.g. to establish connection to a database only once, and then perform polling within interactive shell session. MongoDB example: ...

|
||||
|
||||
#### Default mode
|
||||
```yml
|
||||
textboxes:
|
||||
- title: MongoDB polling
|
||||
rate-ms: 500
|
||||
init: mongo --quiet --host=localhost test # executes only once to start the interactive session
|
||||
sample: Date.now(); # executes with a required rate, in scope of the interactive session
|
||||
transform: echo result = $sample # executes in scope of local session, $sample variable is available for transformation
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
#### PTY mode
|
||||
In some cases intractive shell won't work, because its stdin is not a terminal. We can fool it, using PTY mode:
|
||||
```yml
|
||||
textboxes:
|
||||
- title: Neo4j polling
|
||||
pty: true # enables pseudo-terminal mode, default = false
|
||||
init: cypher-shell -u neo4j -p pwd --format plain
|
||||
sample: RETURN rand();
|
||||
transform: echo "$sample" | tail -n 1
|
||||
- title: Top on a remote server
|
||||
pty: true # enables pseudo-terminal mode, default = false
|
||||
init: ssh -i ~/user.pem ec2-user@1.2.3.4
|
||||
sample: top
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Variables
|
||||
If the configuration file contains repeated patterns, they can be extracted into the `variables` section.
|
||||
Also variables can be specified using `-v`/`--variable` flag on startup, and any system environment variables will also be available in the scripts.
|
||||
|
||||
```yml
|
||||
variables:
|
||||
mongoconnection: mongo --quiet --host=localhost test
|
||||
barcharts:
|
||||
- title: MongoDB documents by status
|
||||
items:
|
||||
- label: IN_PROGRESS
|
||||
init: $mongoconnection
|
||||
sample: db.getCollection('events').find({status:'IN_PROGRESS'}).itcount()
|
||||
- label: SUCCESS
|
||||
init: $mongoconnection
|
||||
sample: db.getCollection('events').find({status:'SUCCESS'}).itcount()
|
||||
- label: FAIL
|
||||
init: $mongoconnection
|
||||
sample: db.getCollection('events').find({status:'FAIL'}).itcount()
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Color theme
|
||||
...
|
||||
```yml
|
||||
theme: light # default = dark
|
||||
sparklines:
|
||||
- title: CPU usage
|
||||
sample: ps -A -o %cpu | awk '{s+=$1} END {print s}'
|
||||
