Simple Sinatra based status page for the Raspberry Pi.
####Features
A super simple sinatra application that serves a single page with a swanky background and a few nice tidbits of information.
Information displayed:
- Uptime
- Users online
- External IP
- CPU usage and temperature
- RAM used/free/total
- SWAP used/free/total
- Used/free/total of rootfs
####Install
This is known to work in both Raspbian and Raspbmc. Note that it probably won't work on anything other than a Raspberry Pi.
CPU usage requires sysstat:
$ sudo apt-get install sysstat
Install Ruby, I'm partial to RVM:
$ \curl -L https://get.rvm.io | bash -s stable --ruby
Install Sinatra:
$ gem install sinatra
Configure your server in server.rb and launch, you will need to run it as root (rvmsudo) if you're using a port less than 1024:
$ ruby server.rb
You're done!
####Notes
There are many other web based system monitors for the Pi out there already, most not requiring anything as heavy as Ruby (see Ground Control). I only decided to go with Sinatra because I'm already using RoR on my Pi to host a few other personal projects, and I much more familiar with Ruby. This could be useful for anyone who's already got a Ruby environment on their Pi, but if you don't you'd probably be better off looking elsewhere. As this is a personal project, I don't suspect anyone will be contributing, but if you'd like to just shoot me a pull request.
