munin-pihole-plugins VS PADD

My (somewhat ungainly) API-driven Pi-hole plugin example/reference lives here.

You can find the plugin here, the main project repository here, and documentation/wiki here.

Example Pi-hole Munin plugin with telnet and JSON API support by yours truly available here for reference.

I had assumed that I would need to rewrite one or more sections of my munin plugin because I'm monitoring status in one plugin.

If one's self, or anyone else, are interested in something like this, but which attempts to take most of the set-up out of your hands, and focuses more on data presentation than looking pretty, here's a shameless plug for a hobby project of mine, munin-pihole-plugins.

If you'd like to monitor it all in one spot, I'd like to do a little bit of shameless self promotion here and offer this project of mine to assist in automating deploying a distributed full system graphing server. It's intended to run on/alongside Pi-hole, but it can also monitor a Pi-hole instance external to itself.

Again for yourself or anyone else, any queries or concerns regarding the project, what it is or isn't, etc. I'm perfectly happy to address. Bugs, issues, feature requests or feature enhancements should go to the issues page.

More information on installation and usage, including command list, example graph gallery, plugin and script configuration is available at the munin-pihole-plugins project repository.

Should this love interest overlap with a general interest in system/network wide distributed long term monitoring and graphing systems, I'm trying to get eyes on munin-pihole-plugins, and also hopefully some weird edge cases installs for feedback.

Yeah, I was thinking about making a PiHole version this weekend. But in the meantime, there's also PADD which does something similar for PiHole :)

Looking at https://github.com/pi-hole/PADD/blob/master/padd.sh - the value of $cpu is likely not set correctly. Check for the directories, files and logic that is being used to set it - lines 164 to 172. You could add a 'set -xv' before line 164 to see the output of these commands as the script runs.

Pi-Hole has the PADD project that displays app + system info on the console.

There is a note here about it being run in a loop and a bug report here about the screen only updating and not being cleared so it may be the execution method or something outside the application clearing the screen (either with a clear or scrolling the data off the screen).

PADD is probably written to fit whichever screen mode it's set to, but that definitely appears to be a 4:3 ratio one, which is a pretty normal default that can likely be changed to better fit the screen. If you change the console display mode, there's a good chance PADD will try to fit that. If it doesn't, if for example PADD switches away from a mode that fits your entire screen, that'd be a good thing to report to the author on the GitHub page for PADD.
