My Raspberry
PI is, ,silently and tirelessly, doing its work as a headless
server, mostly working as media-server thanks to MiniDLNA
and SFPG
gallery. Thanks to all this working silent and without asking
maintenance I sometimes even forget about the Raspberry PI this is
because I felt the need of looking for a tool that allowed me to
check the Raspberry status trough a simple web interface.
RPI-Monitor
RPI-Monitor
is a web-based monitoring application developed by RPI-Experiences.
I got informed about it by reading its description on eLinux.org
page. On the same page I also found detailed information on how to
set-up repository and install RPI-Monitor package so that installing
it has been a mere copy-and-paste exercise.
sudo apt-get install apt-transport-https ca-certificates
sudo wget http://goo.gl/rsel0F -O /etc/apt/sources.list.d/rpimonitor.list
sudo apt-key adv --recv-keys --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com 2C0D3C0F
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install rpimonitor
Once installed RPI-Monitor is available at port
8888 of Raspberry PI address
The “Start” button brings to RPI-Monitor
status page where monitoring information is neatly exposed
