hashtopolis/agent repository overview

⁠Hashtopolis Python Agent

This agent is used with Hashtopolis⁠, read the wiki or create issues there, visit the Forum⁠. This Hashtopolis agent is only compatible with Hashtopolis versions 0.5.0 and higher.

⁠Prerequisites

You need python3 installed on your agent system. Following python packages are required:

• requests
• psutil

⁠Manual

You can either download the agent from the Hashtopolis new agent page or you can use the url shown there to download the agent with wget/curl.

⁠Run

To run the agent you simply need to call python3 hashtopolis.zip. The settings/configurations normally are done via the config file, described in one of the following sections.

Please note:

• The client does not correctly recognize the OS when you are running in Cygwin or similar on Windows. You need to run it in Windows command line.
• If you unpack the agent out of the .zip file, the automatic updating from the server won't work correctly.

⁠Config

When you run the client for the first time it will ask automatically for all the requirement settings and then saves it automatically to a config file called config.json. This could for example look like this:

{
  "url": "https://example.org/hashtopolis/api/server.php", 
  "token": "ABCDEFGHIJ", 
  "uuid": "49dcd31c-3637-4f2a-8df1-b545202df5b3"
}

⁠Config Options

⁠Debug example

{
  "url": "https://example.org/hashtopolis/api/server.php", 
  "token": "7RNDqtnPxm",
  "uuid": "49dcd31c-3637-4f2a-8df1-b545202df5b3",
  "debug": true
}

⁠rsync

You need a user on the server which can automatically login (e.g. SSH keys) and has read access to the files directory of hashtopolis. On the client side you need rsync installed and set the following lines in your agent config.

  "rsync": true,
  "rsync-path": "user@yourserver:/path/to/hashtopolis/files"
