Originally assigned to: @pavanbhaskardev, @manikanta9176 on GitHub.

Integrate Beszel by installing the beszel-agent on the production server and customer machines. This will enable proper monitoring and metrics collection for the deployment.

Tasks:

Install beszel-agent on the production server
Deploy beszel-agent to all customer machines
Ensure agent is running and collecting metrics
Verify integration with monitoring dashboard

This will improve visibility into system health and performance.

Installed beszel on production instance, attached production, proxy server

here're steps for adding customer machines to beszel instance

Step 1: (customer account creation)

import PocketBase from 'pocketbase';
const pb = new PocketBase('https://monitoring.something.com);

// login as super-admin user
await pb
  .collection('_superusers')
  .authWithPassword('admin@example.com', 'password');

const data = {
  email: 'customer1@gmail.com',
  emailVisibility: true,
  username: 'customer1',
  role: 'user',
  name: 'customer1',
  password: 'something',
  passwordConfirm: 'something',
};

// creating a customer
const record = await pb.collection('users').create(data);

// making user as verified & we need to store the user-id 
const updatedUser = await pb
  .collection('users')
  .update(record.id, { verified: true });

Step 2: (attaching a server)

import PocketBase from 'pocketbase';
import { v4 as uuidv4 } from 'uuid';
const pb = new PocketBase('https://monitoring.up.dflow.sh');

// login as customer
const user = await pb
  .collection('users')
  .authWithPassword('customer1@gmail.com', 'something');

const data = {
  name: 'customer-server-1',
  status: 'pending',
  host: '100.0.0.1',
  port: '45876',
  info: {},
  users: [user.record.id],
};

// create a server record
const server = await pb.collection('systems').create(data);
const token = uuidv4();

const fingerprintData = {
  system: server.id,
  token,
  fingerprint: '',
};


// create a fingerprint record
const fingerprint = await pb.collection('fingerprints').create(fingerprintData);

Step 3: (beszel-agent setup)

# here's a example of the beszel-agent command that need's to be run on customer-machine

dokku apps:create beszel-agent
dokku ports:add beszel-agent http:80:45876
dokku config:set --no-restart beszel-agent LISTEN="45876" KEY="ssh-ed25519xxxxxxxxxxx" TOKEN={fingerprint.token}  HUB_URL="https://monitoring.something.com"
dokku storage:ensure-directory beszel-agent
dokku storage:mount beszel-agent "/var/lib/dokku/data/storage/beszel-agent/sock:/var/run/docker.sock:ro"
dokku storage:mount beszel-agent "/var/lib/dokku/data/storage/beszel-agent/data:/var/lib/beszel-agent"
dokku git:from-image beszel-agent henrygd/beszel-agent
