Remote data retreival

pyDash will allow you to retrieve data remotely if needed. This can be useful if you want to store any of the data in a database or another application.

Data is being returned in JSON format and can be easy retrieved and stored as long as a session is being created to pyDash for login. For session and how-to use sessions please see https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.6/topics/http/sessions/ .

pyDash has a list of short URLs which you can use to retrieve the specific JSON datasets/lists. The URLs are as follows:

/info/uptime/ - Uptime
/info/platform/hostname/ - Hostname
/info/platform/osname/ - OS Name
/info/platform/kernel/ - Kernel
/info/getcpus/cpucount/ - Number of CPU cores

/info/gettraffic/ - Internet Traffic
/info/getdiskio/ - Disk Reads/Writes
