The moni command line tool
The moni command line tool ('moni' for short) is a small program that you can run on your server. It's light on resources, small, and easy to setup. The tool can be used to query machines, watchdogs and metrics from Monibot, as well as upload machine samples, watchdog heartbeats and metric values to Monibot.
Moni is open-source and hosted on github https://github.com/cvilsmeier/moni. You can build it manually (see instructions there) or download a precompiled linux/amd64 binary from https://github.com/cvilsmeier/moni/releases/latest
Once downloaded, copy moni to a suitable place, for instance to ~/bin
or (if you are root) /usr/local/bin
.
Test the installation with the following command:
$ moni
