Dashboard for automatic monitoring of Flask web-services.
The Flask Monitoring Dashboard is an extension that offers four main functionalities with little effort from the Flask developer:
-
Monitor the Flask application: Our Dashboard allows you to see which endpoints process a lot of request and how fast. Additionally, it provides information about the evolving performance of an endpoint throughout different versions if you’re using git.
-
Monitor your test coverage: The dashboard allows you to find out which endpoints are covered by unit tests, allowing also for integration with Travis for automation purposes. For more information, see this file.
-
Collect extra information about outliers: Outliers are requests that take much longer to process than regular requests. The dashboard automatically detects that a request is an outlier and stores extra information about it (stack trace, request values, Request headers, Request environment).
-
Visualize the collected data in a number useful graphs: The dashboard is automatically added to your existing Flask application. You can view the results by default using the default endpoint (this can be configured to another route):
