Monitoring

The todo application integrates with Konso, a monitoring platform that enables capturing logs, tracking values, and collecting metrics. Konso provides insights into the application's performance and usage statistics. The following monitoring capabilities are included:

Logging

The application logs events and errors, which are sent to Konso for centralized logging. Logs are crucial for debugging and monitoring the application's behavior.

Value Tracking

The application tracks the value of specific variables and sends them to Konso for analysis. This tracking helps in understanding the behavior and changes in critical variables over time.

Metrics

The application collects various metrics and sends them to Konso for analysis and monitoring. Metrics provide insights into the application's performance, usage statistics, and trends. These metrics can be used to identify performance bottlenecks and make data-driven decisions.

To access the monitoring features provided by Konso, follow these steps:

1. Visit the Konso website at https://app.konso.io and sign up to your account.

2. Create a new project in Konso to represent your todo application.

3. Retrieve the Konso API key for your project.

4. In the todo application's codebase, locate the configuration file (appsettings.json or similar) and update the Konso API key with your own.

   
   "Konso": {
    "Logging": {
      "Endpoint": "https://apis.konso.io",
      "BucketId": "<your bucket>",
      "ApiKey": "<your app key>",
      "App": "todoapp",
      "Level": "Trace"
    },
    "ValueTracking": {
      "Endpoint": "https://apis.konso.io",
      "BucketId": "<your bucket>",
      "ApiKey": "<your app key>"
    },
    "Metrics": {
      "Endpoint": "https://apis.konso.io",
      "BucketId": "<your bucket>",
      "ApiKey": "<your app key>",
      "App": "todoapp"
    }
  }
  

5. Rebuild and run the todo application. Now, logs, tracked values, and metrics will be sent to Konso for monitoring and analysis.
