Grafana Monitoring Dashboard (EWBF API)

[mplex]

Hey,

I wanted to gauge community interest in putting together a Grafana/Prometheus package to monitor mining instances via APIs (EWBF for now). I don't have a crazy mining rig or anything, but I do this sort of work for a living and could whip up some awesome dashboards in a few hours work:

See here: https://grafana.com/grafana

Anything you can monitor via the API, you can put on a graph. I'd set things up so all you had to do was download docker on a machine, and configure a single file with the IP's of all your miners along with a short description. Then it would poll them once a minute or so and dump all the GPU data to Prometheus and Grafana, where you could create all the dashboards you want. I'm looking to monitor SPS, temperature and power usage for my GPUs, and create some alerts when things go awry.

Other miners with APIs could easily be added later, and basically all you would need is docker to start it up. It would be hosted on GitHub of course. I've done this for dozens of systems at work, so it's not much trouble for me to put together other than packaging it up.

Thoughts?

I think this would be great, a statistical system for monitoring historical rig data with pricing etc for all intervals. this would actually be very useful as you could monitor everything in one easy place.

This would be great, I've always wished there's a central monitor to all these different miner with different APIs.

What we really need is an API standard.

I wonder if we can lock down all the miner app coders to make a unified library/standard for the API interface.

Would save a LOT of heartache for everyone in the future.

DO it up man, see what you can offer   to be honest i know for me personally i just have a plethora of random sites and different APIs i use for each use case, and its kinda a headache. Im sure advanced users make your own but most of us don't have the skills or time haha
make something monitors all in one and put donation addresses on it (or maybe a premium tier), if it offers something we dont already have im sure it will fly!
good luck, ill keep watching this thread for updates

Hey guys, I'll start working on something this afternoon. I'll set it up where with 20 lines of Python, you can add another scraper for any API that will dump the stats into Grafana. Should be easy to copy one that works and modify it for another.

On the dashboard/grafana side, it's all GUI based, so it will be easy to create and share dashboards. Same with alerts, all you need is an outgoing mail SMTP server, or you can even dump them all to a Slack room.

Stay tuned!

Def watching this post mplex and thank you for taking the time to put this together. My current monitoring solution for ewbf's miner isn't working and I'm being told it's due to the lack of a complete and proper functioning API from ewbf, so interested to see if you run into any issues pulling data from the API for monitoring via Grafana. If all goes well I will be sending a donation your way as I currently pay $10 a month for monitoring I can't fully use, so will send you a few months worth of dues if everything works and easy to implement for other miners like Claymore and Optimizer's ZEC miners...

is this still a thing or?
