Components

This project consists of two parts:

  1. Web server written in C# using ASP.NET for receiving messages sent from Torque application and save to Postgres database.
  2. Grafana Dashboards that you can import to your Grafana instance to visualize the data collected by the web server.

Deployment

Prerequisites

  1. Docker
  2. Postgres 16
  3. Grafana 10

1. Setup Postgres instance

Create a new Postgres 16 instance, it could be on cloud or on your local server, and use ./migrations/bootstrap.sql to automatically get the database schema ready.

2. Setup TorqueMate web server

Once you have your Postgres database, to start the web server, you'll need to provide the connection string to your database to the container environment variable.

docker run \
-p 5147:5147 \
-e ConnectionStrings__NpgsqlTorqueDatabase="Host=<YOUR_DATABASE_URL>; Port=5432; Database=<YOUR_DATABASE_NAME>; Username=<YOUR_DATABASE_USERNAME>; Password=<YOUR_DATABASE_PASSWORD>" \
ghcr.io/jeeyo/torquemate:latest

3. Setup Grafana

Create a new Grafana instance, setup a new data source to connect Grafana to your Postgres instance.

Then go to https://<YOUR_GRAFANA_URL>/dashboards/import, then import each dashboard JSON file in grafana directory.

4. Setup Torque Android Application

TODO

See docker-compose.yml
