SmokeTrace - Ajax based Traceroute for Smokeping
SmokeTraceoute is an browser based traceroute application written in the Qooxdoo. You can easily activate it in your Smokeping setup, to allow users to traceroute smokeping targets directly from the master host.
To activate SmokeTrace you have to copy a few files to your webserver.
Make sure your webserver can execute cgi files outside the cgi-bin directory. Maybe it is enough to create a .htaccess file with the following contents into the smokeping web directory ($web).
AddHandler cgi-script cgi Options ExecCGI
Copy htdocs/script/Tr.js
to your smokeping web directory (NOT the cgi-bin
directory!).
mkdir $web/script cp $src/htdocs/script/Tr.js $web/script/
Copy htdocs/tr.html
to your smokeping web directory (NOT cgi-bin). Make
sure the path, pointing to Tr.js
is correct.
cp $src/htdocs/tr.html $web/
Copy htdocs/resource
into the directory where you put tr.html
cp -r $src/htdocs/resource $web/
Copy htdocs/tr.cgi.dist to the directory where you put tr.html
. Change
its name to tr.cgi
. Edit tr.cgi
to adjust the use lib
line, to
point to the smokeping perl library directory, as you did with
smokeping.cgi
and the smokeping daemon.
cp $src/htdocs/tr.cgi.dist $web/tr.cgi
Edit your config file and add the line:
menuextra = <a target='_blank' href='tr.html{HOST}' class='{CLASS}' \ onclick="window.open(this.href,this.target, \ 'width=800,height=500,toolbar=no,location=no,status=no,scrollbars=no'); \ return false;">*</a>
to your *** Targets ***
section. It will make a *
appear next to each
host name, and when you click on it, the SmokeTrace window will open.
Note that the href
atribut must point to the directory where you put the
tr.html
file.
Not you should be all set. Try calling tr.cgi
from your webbrowser. You
should get some error message about not having sent a JSON request.
