#blessed-ceph-dash ceph dashboard using blessed-contrib
The ceph-dash
has a few different modes for accessing Ceph cluster information.
###Installation
npm install blessed-ceph-dash
####Usage
Display statistics for the Ceph storage platform.
Usage: ceph-dash [options]
Options:
-l, --local Local Mode: Gather statistics if running locally to Ceph.
Expects 'ceph' in path and authenticated. [DEFAULT]
-r, --remote SSH Mode: Gather statistics from specified Ceph admin machine
via SSH. e.g --remote=servername.com
-n, --noauto NoAuto Mode: Do not gather statistics automatically. Used for
when you will manually POST data to ceph-dash
-u, --user User for SSH authentication to Ceph admin machine
[default: "root"]
--password Password for SSH authentication to Ceph admin machine (NOT
RECOMMENDED)
-k, --key SSH key file. (Default: ~/.ssh/id_rsa and ~/.ssh/id_dsa)
-p, --port Port to connect with SSH. [default: 22]
-b, --bind Port to listen on for 'ceph health -fjson' to be POSTd to.
[default: 3004]
-h, --help Show usage message.
####Local
From a local machine to the Ceph cluster that already has admin rights, and can run ceph status
without additional options (default auth).
ceph-dash
####Remote
From a machine that can connect to a 'Local' Ceph box over SSH. The 'Local' box we are SSHing to needs to be able to run the ceph status
command without additional options (default auth)
ceph-dash --remote=someserver.com --port 22 --key .ssh/id_rsa
You could also specify --password=PASSWORD
but obviously this is probably not a good idea as your password will now leak out.
####Dumb
From a machine that you want to run the dashboard you will launch ceph-dash and it will listen on a public port.
ceph-dash --noauto --bind 1234
Then from inside your Ceph network you will POST the output of ceph status -f json
to the machine that is running the dashboard. This method may be required for more advanced configurations and internal Ceph clusters that are inaccessible to any public methods.

ceph status -f json | curl -X POST \
-H "Content-type: application/json" \
-d @- http://remotehost:1234/;
sleep 2;
