Welcome to the `Yet Another Monitor` reports...
The good news is that you've gotten to this page so presumably you've gotten everything installed properly.
Before you can [finally!] see your bandwidth utilization reports, you must first confirm or specify a couple of key values in the settings - in particular, you must:
- enter the day of the month on which your ISP billing cycle starts. If you do not have a billing cycle then enter any date that you want.(*)
- select whether you have unlimited bandwidth or a monthly usage allowance. If you have a cap, that value must be specified in GB.
- confirm the path to the data files on your web server (*), and
- confirm the name of the users and the usage data files created by the `jamon.sh` script (*).
Note - (*) if these values don't match what you have in your `config.file`, you'll get an error alert when you open or reload the page. You'll likely also get incorrect results in the reports.
As you can see below, there are several other settings (but those are all optional). The required fields are prefaced with
and those that which need to be confirmed have a green checkmark (
✔ ) following. Click the checkmark to accept the pre-defined default value or set it to your preferred value (and then click the check). Once all of the checks have been cleared, the page will automatically reload and you'll see your reports.
Your settings are permanently stored on this computer so you'll only have to do this once (yeah!). However you can return to the `Settings` tab at any time to revise or update these values. Please note that the settings are saved in `localStorage` variables - a [relatively] new HTML feature similar to (but more flexible than) `cookies`. Localstorage means that the information is stored on *this* computer and in *this* browser only. This means that if you want to view the reports in a different browser or on a different computer/device, you'll have to confirm your settings there too... sorry, but that's the way `localStorage` works. I've added the `Export Settings` and `Import Settings` buttons to provide a functional (but not exactly pretty) way to synchronize your settings between devices.
