software monitor

---

Displays statics of software on time scale. Example resource usages, Error, Warnings A source with multiple channels can be added For example, Logging from different processes

Current target is to add logging as input channel. Display will render all events happening in process on time scale For Example - User Actions, Success Failures, Crashes, Warnings - Ideally events are just regular expression and assigned ( user can configure which UI element to display) - See mock-up folder.

Possible User Interactions

• Open the location for input (i.e. logs folder)
• Zoom in/out to increase or decrease time precision
• Enable Disable Grid on display
• Add new expressions (i.e. key word to search and mark)
• Mouse Hover tooltip
• Save total statistics ( pdf, png)
• Save / capture as PNG or export whole playback as MP4
• Scroll to move left and right on time scale
• Annotate findings
• Configure alarm for specific occurrence
• Allow user to open file on click ( if source is log file)
• Allow user to pause

See Current Work

Run Line.py Run main.py

Next Work

• Add time scale on x-axis
• Improve Zoom in/out
• Fix default display duration
• Fix left and right movements
• Add more controls
• Improve performance with large files
• Improve rendering logic i.e. only on demand rendering

Implement source manager to handle different sources Display engine will query source manager to give channel data for each source Display engine will show line for each channel in source

Challenge

• How To keep Display engine response regardless of source performance For example a source who reads log file may take a long time display engine shall just time out not wait longer

Developer Setup

• Install Python from Welcome to Python.org
• Install PyCharm Community Edition frnom www.jetbrains.com/PyCharm
• Once Python is installed Install PySide ( for QT) Install PyOpenGl ( for OpenGL)
• Now open PyCharm, Create a project with Root Directory of Source code
• Configure Python interpreter, You are ready to go....

Good to have

• Identify known patterns from input template

Technically

• Is it good to have own database
  • will keep small runtime memory footprint
  • Will help in exporting , Saving ( session, MP4)
