dashboard / team monitor for software development teams

Primary LanguageJava

Current build status: Build Status

An extendable Dashboard for development teams

How it works?

  • Quickstart Create a Spring-Boot-Application like the one you can find in the dash-example-module

  • Terms -- CheckResults can be grouped in the UI. Thats what Groups are for -- Teams are used as filters. This way many teams can share (no team specified) checks/results or have checks executed that only concern them and not interfere with other teams

  • Supported Checks -- Jenkins Jenkins can be queried for build results if you provide JenkinsChecks via a CheckProvider. JenkinsJobListCheckProvider may come in handy for you as it parses the complete list of jenkins jobs for specified patterns and creates JenkinsChecks automatically. No more manual configuration for these. -- Jira Jira can be queried for issues (Bugs, Stories, Whatever). You may like to take a look at JiraQueryBuilder as a starting point for creating JiraChecks. -- Fabric FabricCheck -- DataDog DataDog can be queried for monitors. Just provide DataDogChecks via a CheckProvider. -- Art-Tests Art is supported as well in theory. This was not used in a while and may prove unstable. -- Statushub Statushub is supported as well. Markup will be parsed for css-classes (incident)

  • Philips Hue overall-state indicator You can connect philips hue to the dash to indicate the overall state more "physically". What you have to do:

  • Connect the hue-bridge to the same network as the computer running the dash. if you want to connect it directly you need to enable a dhcp-server on the machine. For windows you could use something like http://www.dhcpserver.de/ (dont forget to add firewall exceptions).
  • Find the bridge IP and go to http://bridge.ip/debug/clip.html
  • Create new developer by firing a GET request against api/newdeveloper and holding the key on the bridge at the same time (following http://www.developers.meethue.com/documentation/getting-started)
  • Fire a GET request against /api/yourkey/lights and find the light that says state.on = true
  • Enter the bridge ip, the key and the light # in the hue configuration in the dash ui
