Android Pulse

Android Pulse is a device monitoring system, with the goal of a friendly user interface, that allows you to track and analyze the performance of your Android devices in real-time. This project consists of a server-side application that collects, stores, and visualizes data from connected Android devices.

Features

• Real-time monitoring of multiple Android devices

• Tracks key device metrics:

  • Battery level
  • Wi-Fi network and signal strength
  • Mobile data availability
  • RAM usage
  • Storage usage
  • Network traffic (download and upload speeds, total usage)

• Web-based dashboard for easy visualization of device stats

• Device aliasing for better organization

• API endpoints for data collection and retrieval

Tech Stack

• Backend: Node.js with Express.js
• Database: PostgreSQL with Sequelize ORM
• Frontend: HTML, CSS, JavaScript (static files served by Express)
• Authentication: bcrypt for password hashing
• Input Validation: express-validator

Getting Started

1. Clone the repository
2. Install dependencies: npm install
3. Set up your PostgreSQL database and update the connection details in server.js
4. Run the server: node server.js
5. Access the web interface at http://localhost:3000

API Endpoints

• POST /api/stats: Submit device statistics
• GET /api/stats/:deviceId: Retrieve stats for a specific device
• GET /devices: Get a list of all connected devices
• POST /api/updateAlias: Update the alias for a device

Security Notice Currently, the project uses a basic authentication system. For production use or any other use cases besides development, it's recommended absolutely not use this. A .env file would be much better even
