README

The Helga monitor tooling consists of the following two parts.

• Monitor
• Instance

When instance is enabled it sends:

• Instance Data like Drupal Version, Git Repository, latest commit, branch etc. to the monitor as soon as the Drupal Cron hook is triggered.
• Log Data with severity ERROR, CRITICAL, ALERT or EMERGENCY to the monitor on Log-Event

Activation

Add the following lines to your settings.php file to enable functionality.

• Project: This also is the identifier for the monitor. It should be the same project wide.
• Environment: Make sure to use Live, Integration, Stage or Local

$settings['instance'] = [
  'project' => 'Instance',
  'environment' => 'Live',
  'monitor' => 'https://www.helga.ch',
  'user' => 'monitor',
  'password' => 'monitor',
];

Local Environment

The config in settings.php is also required locally, although no logs are sent from there. ('environment' needs to be 'Local')

Deployment

Make sure the "shell_exec" PHP function is enabled on your server. (In cyon go to "Erweitert" -> "PHP-Einstellungen" and enable "shell_exec")
