[hiring] php/mysql website monitoring script

armstrong · 11-05-2003, 03:12 PM

I need someone to create a basic php/mysql website monitoring script. Something that works similarly to Alertra and siteuptime, but simpler and works from my server via a cron job that runs every minute.

It should have the following features:
- multiple users with username/password login
- web-based entry of devices (URLs to check)
- each device has optional:
* checking frequency (default is once per hour; range of 1 to 60)
* search of returned pages for presence of user-defined string
* search of returned pages for absence of user-defined string
* MD5 comparison of returned pages vs. previously saved version
- if a device goes down, or any of the optional searches return TRUE, then send an email to user-defined contact/s with:
* device name
* associated URL
* problem description
* date/time it occurred
- if status reverts to normal, then send another email with details:
* device name
* associated URL
* problem description
* date/time it reverted to normal
- web-based reports of each URL's:
* current status (and date/time last checked)
* previous status (and date/time recorded)

Your code must be reasonably-commented and documented to facilitate subsequent maintenance. I require full rights to the resulting code.

This is the bare minimum required, so please quote based on this. Kindly PM both price and how long it would take.

If you would like to quote for additional features, such as:
- multiple search strings
- REGEXP search strings
- checking ftp, pop, and https
- IM or pager notification
- a pretty graphics-rich HTML interface
- historical status log changes for each device (up to one year)
then please quote extra costs and time required for each item.

Payment will be sent via escrow.com or ikobo.com, after I ensure that work was completed as specified.

Regards,

Apollo
