This project is a massive work in progress, and there are plenty of errors and bugs to sort out! Made By ChatGPT :)

• Backend (ArmaLogBackend) on Linux:

  • Advanced licensing with usage constraints & remote kill (so you can void a license key).
  • Offline geolocation with MaxMind (GeoLite2-Country.mmdb).
  • YAML-based player data (players.yaml).
  • EF Core for performance data (PerformanceDbContext, PerformanceRecord, stored in performance.sqlite).
  • Disk I/O checks (Linux uses iostat, Windows portion is commented out).
  • Log monitoring (reads console.log) extracting FPS, CPU usage, memory usage, etc.
  • Daily usage stats, uptime tracking, advanced logging, crash logs, systemd service.
  • Verbose debugging logs and easy troubleshooting.

• Frontend (ArmaLogFrontend) on Windows:

  • WPF app with multiple

    bar charts

    :

    1. FPS (0–60)
    2. FrameTime (0–?), dynamically scaled
    3. Player Count (0–128)
    4. CPU usage (0–100)
    5. Individual CPU cores usage (0–100)

  • Active players label, raw performance data text block, performance summary text, lock scroll for logs, “no logs yet” label, stats updated label, time range selection, pause performance, use GB checkbox for memory usage, etc.

  • Login fields (username, password, server URL) with Connect / Disconnect.

  • Players tab (shows players from the YAML DB).

  • Raw Data tab (show/pause raw data).

  • Logs tab with “Fetch backend logs,” “Show frontend logs,” lock scroll, “no logs yet,” etc.

  • Title: “Arma Reforger Server Monitor Frontend (Made By ArmAGaming.World)”.

  • All lines commented to help new developers.

Additionally, we optimize resource usage, add verbose logs, and include the ability to “void a license key” by calling a remote kill endpoint.

Below is a step-by-step guide:

1) Backend (Linux)

1.1) Installation Steps

1. Install .NET 8 on your Linux system (Debian/Ubuntu example):

   bashCopysudo apt-get update
   sudo apt-get install dotnet-sdk-8.0
   

   Or see Microsoft docs.

2. Clone the backend:

   bashCopygit clone https://github.com/YourUser/ArmaLogBackend.git
   cd ArmaLogBackend
   

3. Place these files in the root of ArmaLogBackend:

   • players.yaml (YAML for players)
   • GeoLite2-Country.mmdb (MaxMind geolocation DB)
   • licenseUsage.json (for licensing usage store)
   • crashlogs/ folder (optional, for crash logs)

4. Build & Run:

   bashCopydotnet build
   dotnet run
   

   By default, it listens on http://0.0.0.0:5000. Test by visiting http://<server-ip>:5000 => you see “ArmaLogBackend is running.”

1.2) Systemd Setup

Create a file: /etc/systemd/system/armalogbackend.service:

iniCopy[Unit]
Description=ArmaLog Backend
After=network.target

[Service]
ExecStart=/usr/bin/dotnet /root/ArmaLogBackend/ArmaLogBackend.dll
Restart=always
User=root
WorkingDirectory=/root/ArmaLogBackend

[Install]
WantedBy=multi-user.target

Then:

bashCopysudo systemctl enable armalogbackend.service
sudo systemctl start armalogbackend.service
sudo systemctl status armalogbackend.service

1.4) Data Files:

• players.yaml in root
• GeoLite2-Country.mmdb in root
• licenseUsage.json in root (if using licensing)
• crashlogs/ folder for crash logs

That’s it for the backend.

2) Frontend (Windows)

2.1) Installation Steps

1. Install .NET 6 or .NET 7 on Windows from dotnet.microsoft.com/download.

2. Clone

   the frontend:

   bashCopygit clone https://github.com/YourUser/ArmaLogFrontend.git
   cd ArmaLogFrontend
   

3. Build & Run

   :

   bashCopydotnet build
   dotnet run
   

4. In the UI: fill out username, password, server URL (like http://<server-ip>:5000), then Connect. Switch to the Performance tab, see bar charts, etc.

3) Summary of Changes & Removed Features

1. Changes:
   • Licensing with usage constraints + remote kill is optional (commented out).
   • DiskIO uses Linux iostat, Windows code is commented out.
   • Multiple bar charts in the frontend: FPS, FrameTime, PlayerCount, CPU usage, CPU cores usage.
   • Raw data tab, logs tab with lock scroll, “no logs yet,” “stats updated,” etc.
   • Performance summary text with CPU, memory, disk, net usage.
   • Players tab with “ShowPlayers” from the YAML DB.
   • Time range selection, “pause” performance button, “use GB” memory toggle.
   • Active players label on top.
2. Removed or disabled:
   • RCON references are commented or excluded.
   • Windows PerformanceCounter is commented out.
   • Any leftover inline middleware that caused “Delegate 'RequestDelegate' does not take 0 arguments” is removed.

4) Detailed Summary of Each App

1. Backend:
   • ArmaLogBackend runs on Linux.
   • Optionally checks a license key, calls remote kill endpoint. If invalid, it exits.
   • Loads geolocation DB, YAML players, EF Core DB for performance.
   • Monitors console.log for FPS, CPU usage, memory usage, storing them in PerformanceDbContext.
   • Exposes endpoints for performance, daily usage, players, raw data, logs, uptime.
   • Crash logs are written to crashlogs/ if an unhandled exception occurs.
   • Systemd script provided to auto-start on boot.
2. Frontend:
   • ArmaLogFrontend is a WPF .NET 6 app on Windows.
   • Has a MainWindow with multiple bar charts, raw data tab, logs tab, players tab, “active players,” “no logs yet,” etc.
   • Polls the backend every 2 seconds for performance data (unless paused).
   • Displays memory usage in MB or GB, user toggles with a checkbox.
   • Has login fields, connect/disconnect to a hypothetical /api/login or /api/disconnect.
   • FrontendLogger writes errors to FrontendErrors.log and crashes to FrontendCrashes.log.

They communicate via HTTP endpoints. The user can “void” a license key by making the remote kill server return true for that license ID.
