That it does this, and is in Python is a point of pride for me... Just let me have this one, ok? What I have done is added some hooks to HBlink, which will be expanded over time, whereby it listens on a TCP socket and provides the raw data necessary for a "web dashboard", or really any external logging or statistics gathering program. - -HBmonitor is my take on a "web dashboard" for HBlink. - -***THIS SOFTWARE IS VERY, VERY NEW*** - -Right now, I'm just getting into how this should work, what does work well, what does not... and I am NOT a web applications programmer, so yeah, that javascript stuff is gonna look bad. Know what you're doing? Help me! - -It has now reached a point where folks who know what they're doing can probably make it work reasonably well, so I'm opening up the project to the public. - -***GOALS OF THE PROJECT*** - -Some things I'm going to stick to pretty closely. Here they are: - -+ HBmonitor be one process that includes a webserver -+ Websockets are used for pushing data to the browser - no long-polling, etc. -+ Does not provide data that's easily misunderstood - -***0x49 DE N0MJS*** - -Copyright (C) 2013-2018 Cortney T.
