# RSMon Worker

Standalone distributed monitoring worker for [rsmon.ru](https://rsmon.ru). It
connects to the RSMon control plane over WebSocket, executes checks locally,
delivers delegated notifications, and reports results back to the service.

This repository is **source available, not open source**. Building and running
the worker with rsmon.ru and private research/evaluation are permitted. See
[LICENSE](LICENSE) for the complete terms.

## Requirements

- A worker token created in the rsmon.ru worker settings.
- Outbound HTTPS/WebSocket access to rsmon.ru.
- Chromium for browser-backed HTTP checks when running the binary directly.
- `CAP_NET_RAW` or an unprivileged ICMP configuration for ping checks.

## Build

Go 1.26 or newer is required.

```bash
make build
./bin/rsmon-worker --version
```

The binary reads `.env` from its working directory when present. The minimum
configuration is `RSMON_URL`, `RSMON_TOKEN`, `WORKER_LOGIN`, and
`WORKER_PASSWORD`.

## Docker Compose

```bash
cp .env.example .env
# Edit .env and set the worker token and operator-console password.
docker compose up -d
docker compose logs -f worker
```

Compose pulls `reg.rsxx.ru/rsmon/rsmon-worker:latest` by default. Set
`RSMON_WORKER_IMAGE` to use another published tag.

The operator console is bound to `127.0.0.1:27401` by default. Set
`WORKER_BIND_IP` only when a firewall or TLS reverse proxy protects the port.
Persistent web and cluster state is stored in the `worker-data` volume.

## Docker

```bash
docker pull reg.rsxx.ru/rsmon/rsmon-worker:latest
docker run --rm \
  --cap-add NET_RAW \
  --env-file .env \
  -p 127.0.0.1:27401:27401 \
  -v rsmon-worker-data:/var/lib/rsmon-worker \
  reg.rsxx.ru/rsmon/rsmon-worker:latest
```

Published images use these tags:

- `sha-<12-character-commit>` for every push;
- `latest` for `master`;
- the `v*` release ref, with Docker-invalid characters replaced by `-`.

The Gitea workflow reads `HARBOR_REGISTRY`, `HARBOR_USER`, and
`HARBOR_PASSWORD`. `HARBOR_REGISTRY` may be a host such as `reg.rsxx.ru` or an
HTTP(S) URL; the workflow strips the scheme and trailing slash before composing
Docker image references. The Harbor project is appended separately as `rsmon`.

## systemd

Install host dependencies first. On Debian or Ubuntu:

```bash
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install -y ca-certificates chromium libcap2-bin tzdata
```

Build and install with a token file so the token does not enter shell history or
the process list:

```bash
make build
printf '%s\n' 'WORKER_TOKEN' > worker-token
chmod 600 worker-token
sudo ./bin/rsmon-worker install --token-file worker-token
rm worker-token
```

`install` copies the running binary to `/usr/local/bin/rsmon-worker`, writes the
mode-0600 configuration at `/etc/rsmon-worker/worker.env`, installs a simple
root-run systemd unit, and enables and starts it. Use `--url` to override
`https://rsmon.ru`, `--binary` to install another binary, or `--no-start` to
configure without starting.

The Docker alternative pulls the prebuilt image and installs a systemd unit
that runs it:

```bash
sudo ./bin/rsmon-worker install --docker --token-file worker-token
```

The image defaults to `reg.rsxx.ru/rsmon/rsmon-worker:latest`; override it with
`--image`.

The token can also be passed as `--token` or `--api-key`, but that can expose it
through shell history and process inspection. The legacy repository-based
installer remains available:

```bash
sudo ./scripts/install-systemd.sh --binary ./rsmon-worker --env ./worker.env
```

Operational commands:

```bash
systemctl status rsmon-worker
journalctl -u rsmon-worker -f
sudo systemctl restart rsmon-worker
```

The service runs as root, reads secrets from
`/etc/rsmon-worker/worker.env`, and can execute ICMP checks without additional
capability setup.

## SSH deployment

`deploy` uploads the selected worker binary and a temporary mode-0600
configuration over SSH, then runs the binary's `install` command through root or
`sudo`. The remote host needs Linux, systemd, `base64`, and either root SSH or
sudo access.

```bash
./bin/rsmon-worker deploy \
  --host worker.example.com \
  --user deploy \
  --identity-file ~/.ssh/id_ed25519 \
  --token-file worker-token
```

Add `--docker` to install remotely by uploading only the configuration and
systemd unit, then running `docker pull` on the target. This mode does not upload
or execute the local worker binary, so the local and remote architectures may
differ.

The default SSH port is 22 and the default RSMon URL is `https://rsmon.ru`.
Encrypted keys use `--key-passphrase-file`; password authentication uses
`--password-file`; password-protected sudo uses `--sudo-password-file`. Direct
secret flags are supported for interactive convenience but file options are
safer for automation.

SSH host keys are checked against `~/.ssh/known_hosts` by default. Use
`--known-hosts PATH` or pin `--host-key-fingerprint SHA256:...`. The explicit
`--insecure-host-key` option disables host authentication and should only be
used in a trusted disposable environment.

## Configuration

| Variable | Required | Default | Purpose |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| `RSMON_URL` | yes | `https://rsmon.ru` for health only | Control-plane base URL. |
| `RSMON_TOKEN` | yes | none | Worker bearer token. |
| `WORKER_HOST` | no | `0.0.0.0` | Operator-console bind address. |
| `WORKER_PORT` | no | `27401` | Operator-console port. |
| `WORKER_URL` | no | none | Public URL advertised to the control plane. |
| `WORKER_LOGIN` | yes | none | Operator-console basic-auth login. |
| `WORKER_PASSWORD` | yes | none | Operator-console basic-auth password. |
| `RSMON_WEBAPP_DATA_DIR` | no | user data directory | SQLite and local UI state. |
| `WORKER_CLUSTER_ENABLED` | no | `false` | Enable the optional Raft cluster. |
| `WORKER_CLUSTER_ID` | with cluster | none | Unique Raft node ID. |
| `WORKER_CLUSTER_PORT` | no | `WORKER_PORT+10000` | Raft transport port. |
| `WORKER_CLUSTER_PEERS` | no | none | Comma-separated `node@host:port` peers. |
| `WORKER_CLUSTER_DATA_DIR` | with cluster | none | Persistent Raft state directory. |

The public liveness endpoint is `GET /healthz`; the image probes it with
`rsmon-worker liveness`. `rsmon-worker health` separately checks the configured
control plane's `/up` endpoint for connectivity diagnostics.

## Implementation Documentation

Worker architecture, protocol, inventory, private-worker isolation, network
diagnostics, web console, and critical-cluster work are specified in
[`docs/README.md`](docs/README.md). These documents replace worker-owned planning
material formerly kept in the RSMon control-plane repository and include a
source migration ledger.

## Security

- Do not commit `.env`, worker tokens, or operator-console credentials.
- Expose the operator console only on loopback or behind authenticated TLS.
- Each worker should have its own control-plane token.
- Keep `/etc/rsmon-worker/worker.env` mode `0600`.
