CakePHP Server Monitor

CakeServerMonitor

CakePHP 3 Plugin for Monitoring Server Stats

Installation

• To install the CakeServerMonitor plugin, you can use composer. From your application's ROOT directory (where composer.json file is located) run the following:

  composer require watchowl/cake-server-monitor

• You will need to add the following line to your application's config/bootstrap.php file:

  Plugin::load('Watchowl/CakeServerMonitor',['bootstrap' => true]);

Notification

CakeServerMonitor currently supports notification via email. You can configure recipients' email addresses in your applications 'config/bootstrap.php' file using overwriting the CakeServerMonitor.email.recipients key:

Configure::write(
    'CakeServerMonitor.email.recipients',
    ['[email protected]','[email protected]']
);

Scheduling task

The last step to make this work is to add a cron job. You can do so by adding a similar line as shown below to your system's crontab file. Do remember to update the path to your own project. The following cron job runs at 1 am every day, you can change it to your own preference.

* 1 * * * cd path && bin/cake monitor run

Customisation

CakeServerMonitor does provide some customisation options.

• Changing email profile

by default CakeServerMonitor uses the default profile to send an email. You can change it to your own preference using the CakeServerMonitor.email.profile key:

Configure::write(
    'CakeServerMonitor.email.profile',
    'debug'
);

• Changing checking stats

by default CakeServerMonitor checks following stats:

• Disk Space
• MySql Process
• Nginx Process
• Php5Fpm Process

Under the hood, each checker is actually a class under WatchOwl namespace. You can overwrite what checkers to run via the CakeServerMonitor.commands key:

Configure::write(
    'CakeServerMonitor.commands',
    [
        'disk_space' => 'WatchOwl\CakeServerMonitor\CommandDefinition\DiskSpace',
        'mysql' => 'WatchOwl\CakeServerMonitor\CommandDefinition\MySql',
        'nginx' => 'WatchOwl\CakeServerMonitor\CommandDefinition\Nginx',
        'php5fpm' => 'WatchOwl\CakeServerMonitor\CommandDefinition\Php5Fpm',
    ]
);

You can remove any checkers above so it won't run.

• Creating your own checker

As you might have already guessed, you can create your own checker to extend CakeServerMonitor's abilities. To do so, creates a class extends from WatchOwl\CakeServerMonitor\CommandDefinition\CommandDefinition abstract class and implement its defined abstract methods.

After that, add your own checker to the CakeServerMonitor.commands key as shown in previous section.
