Yet another node info collector
|
|
```
|
|
(previously [respond-collector](https://github.com/FreifunkBremen/respond-collector))
|
|

|
|
|
|
`yanic` is a respondd client that fetches, stores and publishes information about a Freifunk network. The goals:
|
|
* Generating JSON for [Meshviewer](https://github.com/ffrgb/meshviewer)
|
|
* Storing statistics in [InfluxDB](https://influxdata.com/) to be analyzed by [Grafana](http://grafana.org/)
|
|
* Provide a little webserver for a standalone installation with a meshviewer
|
|
|
|
## Usage
|
|
```
|
|
Usage of ./yanic:
|
|
-config path/to/config.toml
|
|
```
|
|
## Configuration
|
|
Read comments in [config_example.toml](config_example.toml) for more information.
|
|
|
|
## Live
|
|
* [meshviewer](https://map.bremen.freifunk.net) **Freifunk Bremen** with a patch to show state-version of `nodes.json`
|
|
* [grafana](https://grafana.bremen.freifunk.net) **Freifunk Bremen** show data of InfluxDB
|
|
|
|
## How it works
|
|
|
|
It sends the `gluon-neighbour-info` request and collects the answers.
|
|
|
|
It will send UDP packets with multicast group `ff02:0:0:0:0:0:2:1001` and port `1001`.
|
|
|
|
If a node does not answer, it will request with the last know address under the port `1001`.
