observo

observo is a JavaFX application for monitoring and displaying Zabbix messages.

Prerequisites

• Java 17 or higher
• Maven

Build and Run

1. Build the project:

   mvn clean package

   This produces the application jar, copies all runtime dependencies and creates a platform specific app image under target/dist/ via jpackage.

2. Run the application:

   The generated app image is located in target/dist/.

   • Linux: target/dist/Observo/bin/Observo
   • Windows: target/dist/Observo/Observo.exe
   • macOS: open the bundle target/dist/Observo.app

Configuration

• Settings (server, language, window size) are saved automatically when exiting the application.
• The language can be changed in the settings menu.
• Zabbix server configuration is available via the menu.

Continuous Integration

• Every push to master runs the "Build Distributables" GitHub Action and uploads the platform-specific bundles as workflow artifacts (observo-linux.tar.gz, observo-macos.tar.gz, observo-windows.zip).
• Publishing a release in GitHub automatically rebuilds the bundles and attaches the same artifacts to the release.

Features

• Polling Zabbix problems
• Message filtering
• Acknowledge function with comment
• Multilingual (German/English)
• Notifications and sounds

Notes

• When closing the window, the application is minimized and continues running in the background. To fully exit, use the menu "File > Exit".
