CVS Tags: HEAD
Log Message:
An experimental go at using rrdtool to graph i-scream data. Graphing the
Queue's seem like a good idea, as this wasn't done anywhere else. The
README file gives details on how this works.

5 XML parsing is done using the following;
6
7 XML::Parser
8 http://wwwx.netheaven.com/~coopercc/xmlparser/
9
10 Expat
11 http://expat.sourceforge.net/
12
13 Both of those need to be installed first.
14
15 Finally, rrdtool is needed for graphing. It can be found here;
16
17 RRDTool
18 http://rrdtool.eu.org/
19
20 With that lot installed, start watch.pl;
21
22 ./watch.pl iscreamserver.domain.com 4510
23
24 This will generate the rrdtool databases from the live data the i-scream server provides.
25
26 ./graph.pl
27
28 This will generate the graphs. This is best run on a cron job.
29
30 Finally, index.php will make a dynamic page based on the data graph.pl generates.

32 See TODO for things still to be done.
