monitor_plugin plugin for MADS

NOTE: the monitor.plugin is now integrated in MADS v2. This repo is thus archived

This is a Sink plugin for MADS.

It keeps track of all agents publishing on the network and of how long since they have been publishing. There's of course no way to track pure sinks.

Required MADS version: 2.0.0.

Supported platforms

Currently, the supported platforms are:

• Linux
• MacOS
• Windows

Installation

Linux and MacOS:

cmake -Bbuild -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX="$(mads -p)"
cmake --build build -j4
sudo cmake --install build

Windows:

cmake -Bbuild -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX="$(mads -p)"
cmake --build build --config Release
cmake --install build --config Release

INI settings

The plugin supports the following settings in the INI file:

[monitor]
sub_topic = [""] # Subscribe to all topics
col_widths = [18, 15, 15] # Widths of first three columns
yellow = 0.1 # seconds: color yellow periods larger than that
red = 0.1    # seconds: color red periods larger than that
silent = true

All settings are optional; if omitted, the default values are used.
