Description

Meteor package for querying a meteor app for diagnostics information.

Installation

Meteor ServerInfo can be installed with Meteorite. From inside a Meteorite-managed app:

$ meteor add percolate:server-info

Usage

Install the package, then access /info on your running application. By default, the route is protected by a username/password combinbation of insecure:secureme that you should promptly change.

From the command line, you could run curl http://insecure:secureme@localhost:3000/info.

Configuration

You can set the path and http basic authentication credentials like

1ServerInfo.settings = {
2  path: '/info',
3  user: 'insecure',
4  password: 'secureme',
5  extras: undefined //a function or any other data to add
6};

extras is an optional field that will be returned as part of the json object. If you provide a function, it will be evaluated and it's return value will be added to the json object.
