# PCMonitorSuite

**PCMonitorSuite** is a system for monitoring a computer's hardware diagnostics (temperatures, CPU/GPU usage, memory, etc.), loading data locally and periodically sending it to a REST API server. The project consists of two three components: a Windows application - PCMonitorClient, backend REST API server - PCMonitorServer and html/js web dashboard.

---

## System Architecture

![Component Diagram](docs/diagrams/diagram-component.png)

### Client Application – `PCMonitorClient`

- Written in **C#** (.NET)

- Graphical User Interface made using Windows.Forms libraries

- Runs in the background as a tray icon on the taskbar

- Viewing diagnostics in a separate window

- Local logging to .log file

- Automatic data collection every 10 seconds (using LibreHardwareMonitor),

- Automatic sending JSON data every 10 seconds to PCMonitorServer

### REST API Server – `PCMonitorServer`

- REST API written in **Java (Jakarta EE)**

- Receives diagnostic data in JSON format

- Storing data in h2 database

- Provides simple endpoints:

  - `POST /api/data` – receive diagnostic data from the PCMonitorClient

  - `GET /api/data` – get latest data that came to the server

  - `GET /api/data/computers` - get all computers

  - `GET /api/data/sensor` - get all sensors

  - `GET /api/data/history?computerId=xx&sensorId=xx` - get sensor readings history by computerId and sensorId

### Web Dashboard

- Written in html/js

- Selection of computer and sensor for analysis

- Displaying the history of readings of the selected sensor in table, chart format

- Pie chart and bar chart made in chart.js

## Requirements

To build from source, make sure you have the following:

### PCMonitorClient (desktop application)

- Windows 10/11 (x64)

- Visual Studio 2019 or newer

- .NET Framework 4.7.2 or higher

- LibreHardwareMonitorLib.0.9.4

- HidSharp.2.1.0

- Newtonsoft.Json.13.0.3

- System.CodeDom.9.0.0

- System.Management.9.0.0

### PCMonitorServer (backend)

- Java 11+

- Apache NetBeans (or any IDE with Jakarta EE support)

- Maven

- REST API deployed on local or remote server (e.g., Tomcat)

- jakartaee 10.0.0

- hibernate 5.2.10.Final

- h2database 1.4.193

- javax.xml.bind 2.3.0

- com.google.code.gson

---

## Build and run

### Diagnostic Client

1. Open the `PCMonitorClient.sln` in Visual Studio.

2. Install required dependencies listed "Requirements" section (for example by NUGet packages in Visual Studio)

3. Build the PCMonitorClient project (`Ctrl + Shift + B`).

4. Run `PCMonitor.exe` from `bin/Debug` or `bin/Release`.

### Server

1. Open the `PCMonitorServer` project in Apache NetBeans.

2. Run it on a Java EE server (for example: Apache Tomcat 10.1 configured in Apache Netbeans).

3. Ensure the `/PCMonitorClient endpoint is available at `http://localhost:8080/PCMonitorClient`.

## Security (TODO)

- No authentication 

- No encryption 

---

## Planned Features

- Export data to CSV

- System notifications

- Client-server authentication

- Additional configurations in diagnostic client (PCMonitorClient)

- Improvement of web dashboard: add more options for better data visualisation
