My idlers

A web app for displaying, organizing and storing information about servers (VPS), shared & reseller hosting, domains, DNS and misc services.

Despite what the name infers this self hosted web app isn't just for storing idling server information. By using a YABs output you can get disk & network speed values along with GeekBench 5 scores to do easier comparing and sorting.

V2 notes

V2 build is a complete overhaul of My idlers with the project being moved onto the Laravel framework. This will simplify development and most of the features from the original build will be present in V2.

Using Laravel will bring in an API endpoint and the possibilities to show servers publicly with certain parameters removed.

Authorization : Bearer API_TOKEN_HERE

All API requests must be appended with api/ e.g mydomain.com/api/servers/gYk8J0a7

GET request:

dns/

dns/{id}

domains/

domains/{id}

servers

servers/{id}

labels/{id}

Notes

Public viewable listings

If enabled the public viewable table for your server listings is at /servers/public You can configure what you want viewable at /settings

Due date / due soon

This is simply just a reminder. If the homepage is requested (viewed) when a service is over due date it will get reset to plus the term from the old due date.

E.g if the term is a month then the due date gets updated to be 1 month from the old due date.

Supporting YABS commands:

curl -sL yabs.sh | bash

or

curl -sL yabs.sh | bash -s -- -r

Make sure YABs output starts at the first line which is:

# ## ## ## ## ## ## ## ## ## ## ## ## ## ## ## ## ## #
