Templates for RPi-Monitor

Various templates for the awesome RPi-Monitor tool by Xavier Berger. Please check their original repo and the original docs to understand more about this tool.

The templates provided in this repo were not reviewed nor endorsed by Xavier Berger. Use them at your own will.

How to use these templates

To install all the templates provided by this tool, just execute the install.sh file. The user executing the script should have permission to create files in the RPi Monitor's templates folder as well as to modify the data.conf file in the RPi Monitor folder. This usually means executing as sudo:

/RPi-Monitor-Templates$ sudo ./install.sh

This installation uses the default parameters for all templates. To pass specific templates please use the individual installer as described below for each of the templates.

Every template is inside its own subfolder with its own install.sh file, so if you prefer to install a specific template, just open the folder and execute its install file:

$ cd cpu_load_temperature
$ ./install.sh

All installers expect the RPi Monitor templates to be located in the default /etc/rpimonitor/template folder. Should you have the templates in a different directory please change the DIR_RPIMONITOR_TEMPLATES variable inside each install.sh file before executing it.

Templates

CPU Load + Temperature

This template merges together the default CPU (cpu.conf) and Temperature (temperature.conf) templates, and (optionally) enables the top3 addon. To avoid enabling the top3 addon, use notop3 as the first parameter of the install.sh file: (only works when installing this specific template. When installing all templates top3 is always enabled)

$ cd cpu_load_temperature
$ ./install.sh notop3

HD (Storage)

This template monitors a single external USB HD. By default it expects the HD to be the sda1 device mounted in /hd. Any different configuration can be passed as arguments to the install script (only works when installing this specific template):

$ cd hd
$ ./install.sh /mnt/mydevice sda2

Deluge

This template monitors torrents being downloaded by Deluge. It assumes that Deluge was installed using a user named "deluge", therefore it uses this username to extract Deluge information. If Deluge was installed using any other user, please change the username in deluge/addon/rpimonitor-deluge.cron before installing.

By default this template shows in the Status page only the 4 most recent torrents added in Deluge (the download and upload numbers consider all torrents anyway), and provides a page under the Add-ons menu to view a complete list of torrents.

$ cd deluge
$ ./install.sh

Issues

When reporting issues, please zip the folder /etc/rpimonitor of your instalation and describe which installers were executed. This folder is usually very small and contains only a bunch of config files without any personal information. It also does not include any collected data.
