Extremely small app to remotely watch the downloading status of a MlDonkey server running on any Linux box. I made this to access my box inside a firewalled home network from any internet connected device. The web page uses bootstrap so works flawlessly in any mobile device

INSTALL BASH SCRIPTS ON YOUR LINUX MLDONKEY SERVER:

• launch_mldonkey: runs the mldonkey server in the background and launch the following script (daemon) in the background too
• daemon: connects to the mldonkey server through the character interface, extracts the status of the server and writes to a temporary file. Launch the final script (emule_stats). Sleeps for 15 minutes and repeat.
• emule_stats: reads the temporary file, formats the output and using curl, sends the formatted data via HTTP POST to a servlet deployed in Google App engine.

In your cloud provider (Google App Engine in this case), install the Java webapp. It's made of just two components:

• PostServlet: this servlet just gets the data sent via HTTP POST from the previous bash script and stores it in a single entitty in the Google Datastore. It's invoked each 15 minutes when the script inside the linux box is running
• index.jsp: this is the only frontend component. It's a JSP using jQuery and Bootstrap that connects to Google Datastore, extracts the info and formats into a nice webpage

Enjoy.
