dartmonit 0.0.3

Monitor Dart scripts, and run them on startup.

dartmonit

Monitor Dart scripts, and run them on startup. This is very early in the development stages, so expect some changes.

Running dartmonit as a daemon is currently only supported on Linux and Windows.

Installation

For Unix/Linux variants:

pub global activate dartmonit

On Windows, you need to clone this repository, and add bin/dartmonit.bat to your PATH. The reason for this is that having dartmonit saved on your filesystem allows the install command to install the included Windows service, written in C#, and compiled to an .exe.

git clone https://github.com/thosakwe/dartmonit.git
SET PATH="<dartmonit-root>\bin";%PATH%

See here for a look at how to set environment variables system-wide.

To add a script to /etc/init.d:

dartmonit install

Usage

dartmonit is essentially an HTTP server, which runs as a daemon and exposes a simple API.

Most of the CLI commands query a running API.

To manually start the server (not as a daemon):

dartmonit start
dartmonit start --port 2245

2245 is the default port.

On Ubuntu, you can run it as a service...

sudo service dartmonit start

Commands

Usage: dartmonit <command> [arguments]

Global options:

  help      Display help information for dartmonit.
  install   Adds a shell script to /etc/init.d to run dartmonit on startup.
  kill      Halts the execution of a given command.
