Statsy

Statsy is an easy to use open source PHP tool for developers, that allows you to return various types of information about your server. It can be used to retrieve static information or can be set up to auto refresh any data that is needed for your project, however you can still use Statsy and Statsy Auto together at the same time. Statsy makes it very easy to create dashboards and server monitoring apps.

To use Statsy you can either call the function or get the information from an array. This allows you to do much more, as all the data is in an array making it easier to implement into your project and give you more flexibility.

UPDATE

The OO composer version of statsy will be released soon ETA: 1st August.

How To install Statsy

To install Statsy all you need to do is simply download the Statsy.php file from the Statsy folder and include the file on whatever file you want to call the functions using the following code:

<?php include 'directory-to-Statsy-file/Statsy.php'; ?>

Now you're ready to start using Statsy! List of functions

How To install Statsy Auto

Using Statsy Auto is a little different then the normal Statsy. Instead of just calling the function or using the array you will need to set the location where you want the information to be shown then it will automatically be pulled in and refreshed. When using the normal Statsy you will only need to call the function or use the array however Statsy and Statsy Auto can be used together at the same time.

Step 1: Download The relevant files And jQuery

To install Statsy Auto you will need to download the three files in the Statsy Auto folder Statsy.php, Statsy.jsand stats_json.php. You will also need to make sure you have jQuery installed (jQuery will not be needed much longer).

Step 2: Configure the Statsy.js file (Most important step)

To configure this file you just need to set the variables so that Statsy knows where to find the stats_json.php and also knows where to display the data on your page/pages.

First set the var for the stats_json.php file location this can be either a directory path or a URL, this is shown in the example below:

var stats_json_url = "https://www.example.com/Statsy/stats_json.php";

Next set the var for the auto refresh delay. This is set in milliseconds (1000 milliseconds = 1 second), This is shown in the example below where the delay is set to 2 seconds:

var auto_refresh_delay = 2000;

Finally you just need to set where Statsy will display the information on your page by adding the class/ID names. The example below shows 2 examples one with a class snd one with an ID make sure to set all of the vars that you want to use.

var total_mem_loc = ".example-class";
var available_mem_loc = "#example-id";

Step 3: Configure the stats_json.php file (Only necessary if you want to customise the return kb, mb, gb)

To configure this file all you need to do is change the args in the arrays to whatever you want Statsy Auto to return. The example below shows how it is setup by default this will return all values in megabytes:

$mem = array(
    'total' => get_total_mem('mb'),
    'available' =>  get_available_mem('mb'),
    'cached' => get_cached_mem('mb'),
    'swap' => get_swap_mem('mb'),
    'buffer' => get_butffer_mem('mb'),
    'shmem' => get_shmem_mem('mb'),
    'sreclaimable' => get_sreclaimable_mem('mb'),
    'sunreclaim' => get_sunreclaim_mem('mb'),
    'free' => get_free_mem('mb'),
    'realfree' => get_realfree_mem('mb'),
    'used' => get_used_mem('mb'),
    'percent' => get_used_mem2()
  );

  $disk = array(
    'total' => get_disk_total('mb'),
    'free' => get_disk_free('mb'),
    'used' => get_disk_used('mb'),
    'percent' => get_disk_used2()
  );

There is no need to change anything else in this file unless you know what you are doing.This is all the configuration needed to use Statsy Auto.

Convert Function

This function is used by all other function to convert the memory types:

convert($input, $converstion)

Example:

convert(187374563765, 'mb')

Example

NOTE: The example below are for normal Statsy as for Statsy Auto you will config the JS file to tell Statsy where you want the data to show, however Statsy and Statsy Auto can use used together at the same time.

Below is a small sample of what using some functions and arrays might look like being called in a html/php file:

<div class="server-stats">

<p><?php echo get_ip(); ?></p>

<p><?php echo get_total_mem('gb'); ?></p>

<p><?php echo get_disk_total('gb'); ?></p>

<p><?php echo get()['mem']['used']; ?></p>

<p><?php echo get()['cpu']['cores']; ?></p>

</div>

Why use Statsy?

• Very easy to install and use!
• Makes it easy to get server information and stats
• Can be called in 3 different ways:
  • using functions
  • using arrays
  • using auto refresh
  • All of the above at the same time
• Makes it very easy to pull in mutiple server stats to one place
• Makes it very easy to make your own server monitor apps
• Its open source!

Coming Soon

Here are some fetures that will be coming soon to Statsy!

Complete rewrite of code into OOP

Available as a composer package

Smaller Things:

• Access to log files
• Access to network data
• No jQuery dependency
• Statsy dashboard templates
