Remote App Watchdog

[antongit]

We want to know if the App started on remote PC is running.
And visualize that.

• Remoter starts an remote App with following arguments:
  • Remoter's IP
  • Remoter's PORT (configurable via settings)
  • custom AppId (can be Remoter's "Task Name" that starts the app, more on this later) .
• Every App will have a node 'NotifyRemoter` that reads args on startup and sends every 1 sec a UDP-Message to Remoter:
  • IPs of the PC
  • AppId
  • ProcessID (so that the Remoter will be able to kill that process later)
• Remoter's Task config has a checkbox Send Remoter Config.
• Every app, has config-file and the startargs can be configured there.
• Remoter listens to the UDP messages that arrive to its port. From the received string it knows what PC the message belongs to.
• Every PC in Remoter maintains a list of all apps that send at least one ping:
  • Apps in this list can be live or dead (blue or gray dot)
  • live apps can be killed (because we know processid),
  • dead apps can be restarted (because we know "Task Name") or deleted from the list.
