How to setup a monitoring dashboard
|

===================================
|
||||
Monitoring - How it works
|
||||
=========================
|
||||
|
||||
Inspired by: https://pimylifeup.com/ubuntu-chromium-kiosk/
|
||||
Basics
|
||||
------
|
||||
|
||||
Steps
|
||||
-----
|
||||
You have to set up the monitoring host first. That host will monitor your other machines.
|
||||
Execute `/cis/script/monitor/setupMonitoringHost.sh` to start the process.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
### 1.) Install Ubuntu Server (no desktop) on your computer than set hostname and timezone.
|
||||
|
||||
```sh
|
||||
hostnamectl set-hostname check.local
|
||||
timedatectl set-timezone Europe/Berlin
|
||||
As usual you can configure this feature via definitions.
|
||||
```
|
||||
# Path of this feature's scripts : '/cis/script /monitor'
|
||||
# Path of the corresponding definitions: '/cis/definitions/YOUR.DOMAIN/monitor'
|
||||
ls -lha '/cis/script/monitor'
|
||||
ls -lha '/cis/definitions/YOUR.DOMAIN/monitor'
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
You can modify the appearance and place your own `check.css` or `logo.png` into the definitions folder:
|
||||
- /cis/definitions/YOUR.DOMAIN/monitor/check.css
|
||||
This feature will use these files with a higher priority.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
### 2.) Install minimal GUI and Tools.
|
||||
|
||||
```sh
|
||||
apt install ubuntu-desktop-minimal
|
||||
apt install language-pack-gnome-de
|
||||
apt install xdotool
|
||||
apt install dbus-x11
|
||||
```
|
||||
After the change, you must call `/cis/script/monitor/setupMonitoringHost.sh` again,
|
||||
because it creates links in '/var/www/html/' and gives the definitions priority over the script.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
### 3.) Create a kiosk user with home-directory.
|
||||
Dashboard
|
||||
---------
|
||||
|
||||
```sh
|
||||
useradd -m kiosk
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
and disable Welocme-Screen
|
||||
```sh
|
||||
echo "yes" > /home/kiosk/.config/gnome-initial-setup-done
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
### 4.) Edit following file `nano /etc/gdm3/custom.conf` to turn of wayland and turn on autologin for user 'kiosk'.
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
[daemon]
|
||||
# Uncomment the line below to force the login screen to use Xorg
|
||||
#WaylandEnable=false
|
||||
|
||||
WaylandEnable=false
|
||||
|
||||
# Enabling automatic login
|
||||
# AutomaticLoginEnable = true
|
||||
# AutomaticLogin = user1
|
||||
|
||||
AutomaticLoginEnable = true
|
||||
AutomaticLogin = kiosk
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
### 5.) Configure GUI of user kiosk to prevent monitor from sleeping
|
||||
|
||||
```sh
|
||||
#gsettings list-recursively
|
||||
|
||||
# Does not work
|
||||
#sudo -u kiosk gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.session idle-delay 0
|
||||
|
||||
# Set idle-delay from "uint32 300" to "uint32 0", needs 'apt install dbus-x11'
|
||||
# You can check the value in "GUI-Session of kiosk -> Settings -> Power"
|
||||
sudo -u kiosk dbus-launch dconf write /org/gnome/desktop/session/idle-delay "uint32 0"
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
### 6.) Create custom service to start firefox loading the page.
|
||||
|
||||
Therefore create a file `/etc/systemd/system/kiosk.service` with this content:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
[Unit]
|
||||
Description=Firefox Kiosk
|
||||
Wants=graphical.target
|
||||
After=graphical.target
|
||||
|
||||
[Service]
|
||||
Environment=DISPLAY=:0
|
||||
# Set firefox language, needs 'apt install language-pack-gnome-de'
|
||||
Environment=LANG=de_DE.UTF-8
|
||||
Type=simple
|
||||
# Always a fresh firefox ('-' allow error if common does not exist)
|
||||
ExecStartPre=-/usr/bin/rm -r /home/kiosk/snap/firefox/common
|
||||
# Move Mouse (should also work on small screens), needs 'apt install dbus-x11'
|
||||
ExecStartPre=/usr/bin/xdotool mousemove 4096 2160
|
||||
# See: https://wiki.mozilla.org/Firefox/CommandLineOptions (just -kiosk URL => Start-Assistant, so use -url too)
|
||||
ExecStart=/usr/bin/firefox -fullscreen -kiosk -url http://monitor.example.net/check.html
|
||||
Restart=always
|
||||
RestartSec=30
|
||||
User=kiosk
|
||||
Group=kiosk
|
||||
|
||||
[Install]
|
||||
WantedBy=graphical.target
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
### 7.) Enable the service and reboot
|
||||
|
||||
```sh
|
||||
systemctl enable kiosk
|
||||
reboot
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
Troubleshouting
|
||||
---------------
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
systemctl disable pd-mapper.service
|
||||
apt purge cloud-init -y && apt autoremove --purge -y
|
||||
```
|
||||
You can set up an dashboard following this manual [SETUP_DASHBOARD.md](SETUP_DASHBOARD.md)
