My-MC.Link Status

A real-time server monitoring application for Docker containers and system metrics, integrated with Netdata and Holesail process tracking. This project provides a web-based dashboard to monitor Docker container performance (CPU, memory, network) and host system metrics (CPU, RAM, network, disk I/O).

Features

• Docker Monitoring: Tracks running containers, CPU usage, memory usage, and network traffic for containers prefixed with /mc_.
• System Metrics: Displays host CPU, RAM, network, and disk I/O metrics via Netdata integration.
• Holesail Process Tracking: Monitors the number of active Holesail processes.
• Real-Time Updates: Uses WebSocket to push updates every second to the frontend.
• Interactive Charts: Visualizes data with Chart.js for Docker network traffic and system metrics.
• Responsive UI: Styled with a Minecraft-themed design, including particle effects and gradient text.

Prerequisites

• Node.js: Version 18 or higher.
• Docker: Installed and running with access to the Docker socket.
• Netdata: Installed and accessible via a URL specified in the environment variables.
• Holesail: Required for process tracking (optional, depending on usage).

Installation

1. Clone the Repository:

   git clone <repository-url>
   cd my-mc-stats-website
   

2. Install Dependencies:

   npm install
   

3. Set Up Environment Variables: Create a .env file in the project root and configure the following:

   DOCKER_SOCKET_PATH=/var/run/docker.sock
   NETDATA_URL=http://<your-netdata-host>:19999/api/v1
   TOTAL_CORES=<number-of-cpu-cores>
   PORT=3000
   

4. Run the Application:

   • For production:

     npm start
     

   • For development (with hot reloading):

     npm run dev
     

5. Access the Dashboard: Open your browser and navigate to http://localhost:3000 (or the port specified in .env).

Project Structure

• system-status.js: The main server-side script that:
  • Sets up an Express server and WebSocket connection.
  • Fetches Docker container stats using dockerode.
  • Retrieves Netdata metrics via HTTP requests.
  • Tracks Holesail process counts.
  • Sends real-time updates to clients via WebSocket.
• status.html: The frontend dashboard that:
  • Displays Docker and system metrics in tables and charts.
  • Uses Chart.js for data visualization.
  • Connects to the WebSocket server for real-time updates.
  • Includes Minecraft-themed styling and particle effects.
• package.json: Defines project metadata, scripts, and dependencies.

Usage

• Dashboard Overview:
  • Docker Environment: Shows total/running containers, CPU/memory usage, Holesail processes, disk usage, and AI fault counts.
  • Container Tables: Lists Minecraft containers sorted by CPU and memory usage.
  • Host System Metrics: Displays CPU, RAM, network, and disk I/O charts.
• Monitoring:
  • Data updates every second via WebSocket.
  • Network and disk metrics are smoothed for better visualization.
  • Dynamic unit scaling (B/s, KB/s, MB/s, GB/s) for network and disk charts.

Dependencies

• axios: For making HTTP requests to Netdata.
• dockerode: For interacting with the Docker API.
• dotenv: For loading environment variables.
• express: For the web server.
• ws: For WebSocket communication.
• nodemon (dev): For hot reloading during development.
