Custom Script

Compared with traditional monitoring services, Tianji supports custom scripts to support more customized scenarios.

Essentially, you can understand it as a restricted, memory safe JavaScript runtime that accepts a number to display on your chart. The most common scenario is the time required for network requests to access an url. Of course, it can also be other things, such as your OpenAI balance, your github star number, and all the information that can be expressed in numbers.

if this script return -1, its means this work is failed, and try to send notification to you, just like normal monitor.

If you want to view the trend of a number's changes, opening the trending mode can help you better discover subtle changes in the number

Here is some example:

Examples​

get tailchat available service number from health endpoint​

const res = await request({
  url: 'https://<tailchat-server-api>/health'
})

if(!res || !res.data || !res.data.services) {
  return -1
}

return res.data.services.length

get github star count​

const res = await request({
  url: 'https://api.github.com/repos/msgbyte/tianji'
})

return res.data.stargazers_count ?? -1

replace msgbyte/tianji to your own repo name

get docker pull count​

const res = await request({
  url: "https://hub.docker.com/v2/repositories/moonrailgun/tianji/"
});

return res.data.pull_count;

replace moonrailgun/tianji to your own image name

example for match text​

const start = Date.now();
const res = await request({
  url: "https://example.com/"
});

const usage = Date.now() - start;

const matched = /maintain/.test(String(res.data));

if(matched) {
  return -1;
}

return usage;

return -1 means somthing wrong. in this case, its means in html body include maintain text.
