Hello Drupal Community,
I am Karan Poddar, a Computer Science student from India. My project is: Create sensor instances for Monitoring D8 (Idea Page: https://groups.drupal.org/node/407793#project23).
Monitoring module (https://drupal.org/project/monitoring) provides sensors which can be used to monitor web applications. These sensors collect information which can be collected and used by standard monitoring products like Nagios. This module is already ported to D8.
My project is to use D8 features like PluginAPI and config entities to make sensor creation possible via UI. I need to convert sensors to plugins and their instances to config entities. This will help users to create new instances via UI.
The changes done related to this project can be found on: https://github.com/karanpoddar/monitoring
Please feel free to contact me. My IRC nick is karanp.
