Svelte Linux Dashboard for Orange Pi Zero 2W

A lightweight Svelte-based system monitoring dashboard for the Orange Pi Zero 2W. This dashboard provides real-time insights into CPU, memory, network usage, disk statistics, and basic system information. The backend is powered by Python's psutil library.

NOTE: i made this keeping orangepi zero 2w in mind, but this should work with any SBC or any machine like your pc or a vps

Features

• CPU Monitoring: View real-time CPU usage and temperature.
• Memory Usage: Track available and used RAM.
• Network Statistics: Monitor upload/download speeds and active connections.
• Disk Usage: Display available and used disk space.
• Basic System Info: Get details about the system, including OS version and uptime.

Tech Stack

• Frontend: Svelte (for a lightweight and reactive UI)
• Backend: Python with psutil (for fetching system stats)
• Server: FastAPI (serves API endpoints for frontend data retrieval)

Installation & Setup

Prerequisites

• Orange Pi Zero 2W (or similar SBC running Linux)
• Python 3 installed
• Node.js and npm installed

Initialize

1. Clone the repository:

   git clone https://github.com/Karniverse/svelte-orangepizero2w-dashboard.git
   cd svelte-orangepizero2w-dashboard
   

Backend Setup

1. Create and activate a virtual environment:

   python -m venv venv
   source venv/bin/activate  # On Windows use `venv\Scripts\activate.bat`
   

2. Install required dependencies:

   pip install -r requirements.txt
   

3. Run the backend server:

   python backend/server.py
   

NOTE: you can also your use own backend api. you just need to change the "http://localhost:7000/api/stats" in ./src/lib/apidata.js. and the json data from the backend should be similar like this

{
  "cpu": {
    "usage": 10.6,
    "frequency": 3801
  },
  "systeminfo": {
    "processor": "Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-10700KF CPU @ 3.80GHz",
    "cpuspeed": "3.8000 GHz",
    "corecount": 8,
    "threadcount": 16,
    "machinename": "Ronald",
    "platform": "Windows",
    "version": "10",
    "uptime": "8:56:08"
  }
}

Frontend Setup

1. Install dependencies:

   npm install
   

2. Start the Svelte app:

   npm run dev
   

   Usage

• Access the dashboard via your browser at http://localhost:5173/.
• Ensure the backend server is running to fetch system statistics.

Roadmap

• Add historical data tracking
• Implement dark mode
• Expand support for additional SBCs
• Create a Docker container for easier deployment
