ostent 0.7.0

This is a reboot of sorts. This release cuts old and clumsy flags & parameters to include a solid base for metrics collection and reporting interoperability. These are the highlights:

• Consistent display: client can specify listing bounds though (not delays).
• The default collection interval can be set by new --interval flag or
  in a config file as agent.interval, reporting interval as
  agent.flush_interval.
• Each "input" (a specific metrics collection) can have different interval.
• Configuration file for all the "inputs", "outputs" and generic options.
  The file is not required for defaults and can be concise with omitted settings
  being defaults.
• Some "input" plugins may be deemed intrinsically slow or of no interest,
  these can be configured to have longer interval or disabled completely.
• "output" plugins for each supported outputs: InfluxDB, Graphite, Librato.

ostent 0.6.2

This is minor release featuring updated dependencies including Go 1.7 runtime and latest React.

Other notable changes:

• New --log-requests flag enables printing full access log to stdout.
  It defaults to true in dev mode, false in release binaries.
  Old behaviour was to print just the first request from a particular IP.
  So now it's to print either all the requests or none.
• The access log changed into regular (apache) common access format
  without extra fields like predefined message and duration.

ostent 0.6.1

• This release binaries are no longer self-upgradable for the ease of operations in standalone and development mode. Both kinds though now notify on new stable release being available.

  Installation (and upgrade) made easy with just untarring:

curl -L https://github.com/ostrost/ostent/releases/download/v0.6.1/`uname`-`uname -m`.tar.xz | tar Jxf -

• Dependencies updated including React, Foundation Sites. Sparklines update squashed constant values line bug.
• InfluxDB tags support with parameters setting.
• Librato token and InfluxDB password params masked for display.

Release binaries built with Go 1.6.2.

  (exported). Darwin has no "Drops OUT" available: it's omitted from exporting
  and displaying. Errors and Drops make "Loss" column, zero values muted.
• Vagrant global-status removed.

  {favicon.ico,robots.txt} symlinks in current directory.

If you had an installment since this repo was known as rzab/ostent, ostent should self-upgrade properly. Otherwise please remove the binary and re-install with curl -sSL https://github.com/ostrost/ostent/raw/master/ostent.sh | sh
