1 / 3Built interface — Public status page
Overview
Server Status Dashboard is a status page you deploy yourself, built as a Next.js application with a small poller. The poller checks each of your servers on an interval, reads the FiveM players endpoint, the Minecraft server list ping, Rust RCON or a plain TCP port, and writes the result to a SQLite or PostgreSQL database. The public page reads that database and shows current player counts and a ninety-day uptime bar per server.
Incidents and maintenance windows are written from a password-protected admin page: a title, affected servers, status updates over time and a resolved marker. Scheduled maintenance shows a countdown on the public page and posts to Discord ahead of time. The embeddable widget is a single script tag that renders a compact status strip on your website or forum, and the Discord updater edits one message in a status channel every few minutes.
Deployment is documented two ways: on Vercel with the poller running as a cron route and PostgreSQL, or on a VPS with Docker Compose, SQLite and a systemd timer. Colours, logo and server names come from one config file. The plan covers the operational material, the deployment guides and their revisions while subscribed, including changes to the server endpoints the poller reads.
