Be careful! This is non-stable alpha version so far!

The library enables to monitor different metrics via HTTP-request using token in X-Monitor-Token header.

How to use:

1 Copy resources/monitor-dist.php with convenient name to web-site folder.

2 Setup parameters following the instructions in the file. Don't forget to specify a long enough secure token! And try not to enable your application fully. Use only minimal configuration to allow the library to collect metrics.

3 Check everything is correct. For example, using curl:

curl -XGET 'http://example.org/monitor.php?metric=dummy-metric' \
    -H 'X-Monitor-Token: very-long-token-to-be-placed-here!'

4 Setup monitoring software (for example, Zabbix) for sending a request with the token and the name of desired metric.

Enjoy beautiful data graphs!
