The current monitor is running really badly. It causes JS errors in the front- and backend, is not maintained anymore and a PR for a backend issue is open for over a year now. I would very gladly migrate to a different monitor!

The explorer works without any errors.
Features:

• Recent blocks
• Recent transactions
• Search function
• Node info

I've also fixed the monitor errors, but it's still quite useless.

You can also ignore my PR , this fork has all the changes in once place : https://github.com/kyriediculous/geth-dev

from geth-dev.

So you decided to maintain a separate fork to this repository? I would gladly accept your pull request and the switch to the new monitor, this would prevent the changes and progress to be fragmented.

Why did you remove nice monitoring and introduce new explorer which is ugly and useless? Block are not sync automatically. Status of each node is unknown, etc

from geth-dev.

As mentioned further up in the issue the old monitoring was error-prone and no longer maintained. The backend part of the monitor crashed continuously and caused the docker container to restart often. The new backend also shows the latest transactions and is able to search for specific transactions, a feature that I think is very useful during DApp development.

My mind is not fixed on this, if there is a broad consent, that the old monitor was better, I don't have a problem with keeping it in (there was no release, yet, the changes are only in the develop branch!). Right now, I am under the impression that more people are favoring the new monitor app. How are the opinions out there?

from geth-dev.

I prefer eth-netstats because you can see which geth is on and working. With new explorer this is not possible.

And with fix of @kyriediculous there is no more problem with backend
