PHP uptime monitor (laravel)

This application monitors the uptime by making cURL requests to a defined set of websites and display the data in charts.

The only languages currently available are english and german. You can edit the language files in app/lang/[2_LETTER_COUNTRY_CODE]/*.php. Just copy the english/german translation and edit the files. Pull requests are welcomed.

Requirements

• npm (node.js package manger)

Configuration

In the future there might be an installer.

Set the environment variable APPLICATION_ENV to a value which is unequal testing, e.g. development or production. Create the folder app/config/[APPLICATION_ENV]. All config files in this directory will be merged with the config files in app/config. The most important files are database.php and app.php which should similar to this:

<?php

// app/config/[APPLICATION_ENV]/database.php
return array(
	'connections' => array(
		'app' => array(
			'driver'    => 'mysql',
			'host'      => 'localhost',
			'database'  => 'ping_database',
			'username'  => 'ping_database_user',
			'password'  => 'ping_database_user_password',
			'charset'   => 'utf8',
			'collation' => 'utf8_unicode_ci',
			'prefix'    => 'ping_',
		),
	),
);

<?php

// app/config/[APPLICATION_ENV]/app.php
return array(
	'format' => array(
		'datetime' => 'd/m/Y H:i', // see http://php.net/date
	),
	'url' => 'http://127.0.0.1/ping/public',
	'locale' => 'en',
	'timezone' => 'Europe/Berlin',
	'key' => '' // 32 random alphanumeric chars
);

For a normal installation you should create an auth.php which will create a admin after installation:

<?php

// app/config/[APPLICATION_ENV]/auth.php
return array(
	'default' => array(
		'email' => '[email protected]',
		'password' => '123456',
	),
);
