Raw Blame History

A minimalist systemd service that periodically polls a minecraft server and logs player activity. This requires the minecraft server to have enable-query=true.

The script is currently set up to poll xkcd.cbouton.com and produce a graph for the past hour, day, month, 4 months and 18 months. The graph is generated from template.html, an SVG inside an auto-refreshing HTML page.

Installation

Nothing in the installation process is automated so far:

  1. Install Python 3.x
  2. Perform pip install mcstatus in the monitor folder
  3. Set the PATH in xkcdstatus.service to the monitor folder.
  4. Optionally move the web subfolder to a location in your webserver root
  5. Set the arguments in xkcraftia-monitor.sh to point to the web subfolder
  6. Move xkcdstatus.service and xkcdstatus.timer to /etc/systemd/system/
  7. Enable and start the timer
sudo systemctl enable xkcdstatus.timer
sudo systemctl start xkcdstatus.timer
