Integration with Cronicle?

[phase3dev]

Thank you for such a great app! I use Cronicle extensively as well as Performa, both separately. I frequently switch back-and-forth between the two. I read your comment in the Cronicle repo that Performa will be directly integrated into the upcoming release of Orchestra. In the meantime, is there any (somewhat easy) way that I could integrate Performa with Cronicle or would it be best just to wait for orchestra?

Hello, and thank you for using both of my products! Yes, Orchestra will combine the powers of Cronicle and Performs, so you can have a single server & group list. Orchestra should be out in early 2022.

Alas, there is no easy way to integrate the two apps in their current form. Cronicle and Performa use different data layouts, and store different information for servers and groups, among other things. They are unfortunately meant to live separately.

I wish I had a better answer, but I can't think of any easy way to do what you are asking, without redesigning one or both of them. You might be able to figure out something clever with the APIs, like get the list of servers in one app and somehow "sync" them to the other app, but even as the product author, I don't know how this would work, and the APIs you need are largely internal and undocumented.

I do apologize, but I am hard at work on Orchestra, and it should completely solve this problem for you. Can you wait 4 months or so?

Of course I can wait! If anything, I apologize for being greedy since both programs are already so great -- thanks again for such awesome software and support...which I know is in your spare time!

Hi @jhuckaby
is there any update for Orchestra.

[jhuckaby]

So sorry for the delay -- I am still hard at work on Orchestra. I am actually working on it right now in fact, and funny enough, I just happen to be working on the Performa features (alerts / monitors) this evening. It's coming along nicely, but I obviously completely missed the 2022 deadline I set in this thread.

I've been telling people "late 2023" recently, but darn it, we're almost out of 2023, and I still have a ways to go. All I can tell you is, I am spending every possible moment I have on it. Many hours per day. But it's s big app, with a LOT of requested features.

I will never stop until it is released! And it is going to be amazing.

😊
