chronicle-client

This client has been split from the old repo to be in its own repository.

The server may be found here.

chronicle is for simple client/server data logging to a database. The client will send the following data:

• uid of current user
• username of current user
• full name (GECOS) of current user
• serial number of computer
• munki ClientIdentifier
• hostname of computer
• local IP address of computer

The server logs this to a database along with the time and IP of the client as seen by the server.

The client will only work on OS X, and has only been tested on 10.9. The server will probably run anywhere.

#Usage#

Read the source. It's pretty simple and readable.

The following Enviroment Variables are configurable:

• Client:
  • CHRONICLE_CHRONICLER ( required )
    • Host:Port pair of server
  • CHRONICLE_TLS
    • http or https
  • CHRONICLE_INTERVAL
    • how often the client checks in specified in minutes. This value is skewed randomly to avoid flooding the server.

There are some sample build scripts in the build folder. Note that pkggen is required for mkpkg.sh.
