# monutil

Simple Python utility for monitoring CPU and RAM usage, and monitoring the speed when downloading URLs.
Both CPU/RAM monitoring and URL monitoring can be set on their own monitoring periods. See the available configuration options, which should be specified in config.py.

**Configuration options:**

- **hostMonitoringPeriod** - the delay in between the CPU and RAM usage being probed (defined in seconds).
- **urlMonitoringPeriod** - the delay in between monitoring all of the URLs (defined in seconds).
- **urls** - the list of URLs to monitor (e.g. ["url1", "url2"]).
- **urlTimeout** - the delay before considering a URL to have timed out.
- **maxWorkers** - the amount of threads to use when pulling URL resources. Do not set above the maximum number of threads on the host.
- **forceNonPOSIXCPU** - For POSIX compatible systems, psutil.getloadavg() is executed which relies on os.getloadavg(). For Windows, this seemingly returns 0 (at least on the version executed during development). For Windows, a custom function has been built to obtain running CPU averages, but you can choose to use this function on POSIX systems by setting this variable to True.
- **loggingMode** - Valid options: mssql, mariadb, rabbitmq, none. 
- **sqlServer** - the address of the SQL server which to write the data.
- **sqlDatabase** - the database to write the data.
- **sqlUsername** - the username used to authenticate to the SQL server.
- **sqlPassword** - the password used to authenticate to the SQL server.
- **logRetentionDays** - the maximum age logs should be kept.
- **maximumSQLAttempts** - the maximum number of attempts to try certain SQL operations
