API clients to showcase the RESTful API of the monitoring framework
This module includes a minimal API written in C to register with the monitoring server, and then send metric data for a given user, application, and experiment ID. A full documentation of the RESTful API of the monitoring server can be found in the Web page.
The monitoring API requires first a running server and database. In order to install these requirements, please checkout the associated monitoring server, first. Please note that the installation and setup steps mentioned below assume that you are running a current Linux as operating system. We have tested the monitoring API with Ubuntu 15.10.
Before you can proceed, please clone the repository:
git clone git://github.com/excess-project/monitoring-api.gitThis project requires the following dependencies to be installed:
| Component | Homepage | Version |
|---|---|---|
| curl | http://curl.haxx.se/ | >= 7.37 |
To ease the process of setting up a development environment, we provide a basic script that downloads all dependencies, installs them locally in the project directory, and then performs some clean-up operations. Thus, compiling the monitoring API can be performed in a sandbox without affecting your current operating system.
Executing the following script
./setup.shresults in a new directory named bin, which holds the required dependencies
for compiling the project.
This section assumes that you've successfully installed all required dependencies as described in the previous paragraphs.
$ make
$ make installThe compiled monitoring API library is found in the folder lib. A simple example
of how to use the library is found in the test folder. The corresponding
binary is called test_mf_api.
This project is realized through EXCESS. EXCESS is funded by the EU 7th Framework Programme (FP7/2013-2016) under grant agreement number 611183. We are also collaborating with the European project DreamCloud.
