Using Composer to install is the easiest way with auto-installer:
composer create-project --prefer-dist yidas/mtr-database
Wget Installation
You could see Release for picking up the package with version, for example:
$ wget https://github.com/yidas/mtr-database-php/archive/master.tar.gz -O mtr-database-phpi.tar.gz
After download, uncompress the package:
$ tar -zxvf mtr-database-php.tar.gz
Startup
Database Setup
After the download, you could start to set up the config.inc.php
with your database connection:
... 'database' => [ 'host' => '', 'driver' => 'mysql', 'database' => 'mtr_database', 'username' => '', 'password' => '', 'table' => 'records', 'charset' => 'utf8', 'collation' => 'utf8_unicode_ci', ], ...
Then run install.php
which will help you to install the database & table:
$ php install.php Installation completed
Agent Launch
After the installation, enjoy to run or set launch.php
with your prefered arguments in crontab:
$php launch.php
Process success
Set crontab into /etc/cron.d/mtr-database
:
# Launch and record MTR every 10 miniutes by default */10 * * * * root php /var/www/html/mtr-database/launch.php >/dev/null 2>&1 # Purge data before 90 days by default (Optional) 00 00 * * * root php /var/www/html/mtr-database/purge.php >/dev/null 2>&1
The default batch period is configured to be 10 minutes, so we can set the batch to be executed every 10 minutes.
USAGE
Launch
The configuration file config.inc.php
allows you to set the default settings for MTR launching. However, you can also specify parameters immediately in the command to be run.
Host
Host parameter allows you to specify the target host to be tracked with -h --host
parameter:
php launch.php --host="yourhost.local"
Period
Period argument allocate the number of minutes between crontab intervals with -p --period
parameter:
# Launch and record MTR every 5 miniutes */5 * * * * root php /var/www/html/mtr-database/launch.php --period=5 >/dev/null 2>&1
In addition, Count argument will distribute the sending count between the interval according to the Period setting with -c --report-cycles
parameter:
# Launch and record MTR every 1 miniutes, and each report will send 10 count (send every 6 seconds) */1 * * * * root php /var/www/html/mtr-database/launch.php --period=1 --report-cycles=10 >/dev/null 2>&1
TCP
TCP argument allows you to use MTR TCP mode with specified port, -T --tcp
for enabling TCP mode and -P --port
for setting port:
php launch.php --tcp -port=443
Category
Category allows to categorize each monitor command and supports filtering from the dashboard, which also can be achieved by using the --category
parameter:
php launch.php --category="Monitor-A1"
Purge
Running purge.php
will delete old records older than the given number of days. You can use the -d --days
parameter to set with (default is 90 days):
00 00 * * * root php /var/www/html/mtr-database/purge.php --days=30 >/dev/null 2>&1
Dashboard
The endpoint of MTR Dashboard is /index.php
and it's enabled by default, you could place the project in the web path such as /var/www/html/mtr-database/index.php
.
For the authentication, you could easily set the username and password in config.ini.php
:
... 'dashboard' => [ 'enable' => true, 'username' => '', 'password' => '', 'categories' => [''], // Category list for selection ], ...
categories
will enable you to query specific data by category settings or query all data with default blank values.
