# HarborForge.Monitor

Lightweight Go telemetry client that reports server hardware status to the HarborForge backend.

Part of the [HarborForge](../README.md) platform.

- Role: standalone telemetry agent; **does not depend on OpenClaw**, suitable for plain Linux hosts, VPS, Nginx boxes, etc.
- Reports to the HarborForge backend (`POST /monitor/server/heartbeat`).
- Optional local bridge HTTP server on `127.0.0.1:<MONITOR_PORT>` (default port `9100`) for the HarborForge OpenClaw plugin.

## Collected Metrics

- CPU usage (`cpu_pct`)
- Memory usage (`mem_pct`)
- Disk usage (`disk_pct`, for the root / `rootFs` filesystem)
- Swap usage (`swap_pct`)
- Load average (`load_avg` — 1/5/15 min)
- Uptime (`uptime_seconds`)
- Nginx installed (`nginx_installed`)
- `/etc/nginx/sites-enabled` listing (`nginx_sites`)

When OpenClaw metadata has been pushed to the bridge, heartbeats are additionally enriched with `openclaw_version`, `plugin_version`, and `agents`.

## Reporting Endpoint

The client sends:

- `POST <backendUrl>/monitor/server/heartbeat`
- Header: `X-API-Key: <apiKey>`
- JSON body: the telemetry payload described above

```

## Configuration

First register the server in the HarborForge backend and generate an API Key.

Then prepare a config file, e.g. `/etc/harborforge-monitor/config.json`:

```json
{
  "backendUrl": "https://monitor.hangman-lab.top",
  "identifier": "vps-nginx-01",
  "apiKey": "your-api-key",
  "reportIntervalSec": 30,
  "logLevel": "info",
  "rootFs": "/host",
  "monitorPort": 9100
}
```

Resolution order is: defaults → config file → environment variables → command-line flags (later wins). `apiKey` is required; the process exits if it is empty.

### Environment Variables

Both the (intentionally compatible) `HF_MONITER_*` spelling and the `HF_MONITOR_*` spelling are accepted; `HF_MONITER_*` is checked first.

| Variable | Purpose | Default |
|----------|---------|---------|
| `HF_MONITER_BACKEND_URL` / `HF_MONITOR_BACKEND_URL` | Backend base URL | `https://monitor.hangman-lab.top` |
| `HF_MONITER_IDENTIFIER` / `HF_MONITOR_IDENTIFIER` | Server identifier | hostname |
| `HF_MONITER_API_KEY` / `HF_MONITOR_API_KEY` | Server API key | (required) |
| `HF_MONITER_REPORT_INTERVAL` / `HF_MONITOR_REPORT_INTERVAL` | Report interval (seconds) | `30` |
| `HF_MONITER_LOG_LEVEL` / `HF_MONITOR_LOG_LEVEL` | Log level | `info` |
| `HF_MONITER_ROOTFS` / `HF_MONITOR_ROOTFS` | Host root filesystem mount (for container use) | (empty) |
| `MONITOR_PORT` / `HF_MONITOR_PORT` | Local bridge port (`0` = disabled) | `0` |

When `rootFs` is set, `HOST_PROC` / `HOST_SYS` / `HOST_ETC` / `HOST_VAR` / `HOST_RUN` are derived from it (if not already set) so that gopsutil reads host metrics instead of the container's.

### Command-line Flags

```text
-config string          Path to config file (default "/etc/harborforge-monitor/config.json")
-once                   Collect and send telemetry once, then exit
-print-payload          Print the payload JSON before sending
-dry-run                Collect telemetry but do not send it
-version                Print version and exit
-backend-url string     Override backend URL
-identifier string      Override identifier
-api-key string         Override API key
-report-interval int    Override report interval in seconds
-log-level string       Override log level
-rootfs string          Override root filesystem path
-monitor-port int       Override monitor bridge port
```

### MONITOR_PORT — Plugin Bridge

When `MONITOR_PORT` (or `monitorPort`) is greater than 0, Monitor starts a local HTTP server on `127.0.0.1:<MONITOR_PORT>` for the HarborForge OpenClaw plugin to query telemetry.

| Endpoint | Method | Description |
|----------|--------|-------------|
| `/health` | `GET` | Health check; returns status, `monitor_version`, and `identifier` |
| `/telemetry` | `GET` | Returns the latest cached telemetry snapshot |
| `/openclaw` | `POST` | Receives OpenClaw metadata (version, plugin version, agents) from the plugin |

After the plugin pushes metadata via `POST /openclaw`, Monitor attaches `openclaw_version`, `plugin_version`, and `agents` to subsequent heartbeats. If the plugin never pushes metadata, these fields are omitted and heartbeats are unaffected.

**Important:** the bridge is optional. If `MONITOR_PORT` is 0 or unset, the bridge does not start. Even if the bridge fails to start, heartbeat reporting continues normally (bridge errors are logged as non-fatal).

## Local Development

```bash
go mod tidy
go build ./cmd/harborforge-monitor
./harborforge-monitor -config ./config.example.json -dry-run -once
```

## Docker

Build the image:

```bash
docker build -t harborforge-monitor .
```

### Docker Compose

```bash
export HF_IDENTIFIER=my-server
export HF_API_KEY=your-api-key
export MONITOR_PORT=9100

docker compose up -d
```

The compose file runs with `network_mode: host` and mounts the host root filesystem read-only at `/host` (the image defaults `HF_MONITER_ROOTFS=/host`).

### Manual Docker Run

Run with the **host rootfs mounted read-only** so the container collects host metrics instead of its own:

```bash
docker run -d \
  --name harborforge-monitor \
  --restart unless-stopped \
  --network host \
  -v /:/host:ro \
  -e HF_MONITER_BACKEND_URL=https://monitor.hangman-lab.top \
  -e HF_MONITER_IDENTIFIER=my-server \
  -e HF_MONITER_API_KEY=your-api-key \
  -e HF_MONITER_ROOTFS=/host \
  -e MONITOR_PORT=9100 \
  harborforge-monitor
```

## systemd

You can also run the compiled binary via systemd:

```bash
go build -o /usr/local/bin/harborforge-monitor ./cmd/harborforge-monitor

cp systemd/harborforge-monitor.service /etc/systemd/system/
systemctl daemon-reload
systemctl enable --now harborforge-monitor
```

The provided unit runs `harborforge-monitor -config /etc/harborforge-monitor/config.json` as `root` with `Restart=always`.
