Get started

Run the latest release shown above:

docker run --rm -p 127.0.0.1:9090:9090 pvrlabs/statlite:0.7.0

Or install its binary:

curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/PVRLabs/statlite/v0.7.0/install.sh | STATLITE_VERSION=v0.7.0 sh

Homebrew users can install with brew install pvrlabs/tap/statlite, or update an existing installation with brew update && brew upgrade pvrlabs/tap/statlite.

Configure application targets to monitor your services. The default container starts with StatLite self-monitoring. See the installation guide and integration guides for setup and supported integrations.

Release history

0.7.0 · October 23, 2026

• Native Caddy 2.11.4 monitoring uses per_host metrics and one exact hostname per target for request, HTTP error, and average response-time history without upstream application instrumentation.
• Caddy collection UP does not establish upstream application health. Application runtime and dependency health remain unavailable for Caddy targets.
• Stored Caddy history respects detected resets and source changes. JVM CPU displays percentages, Metrics v1 process CPU displays cores, and historical unit assumptions are explained.
• Host CPU counter boundaries, first-time setup, Caddy onboarding, and the public metric reference are improved.

The exact release candidate passed Caddy HTTPS and private Linux/Docker checks, all nine public integration journeys, Spring Boot 3/4, Quarkus, Micronaut 5/4, historical SQLite upgrade, rebased long-history stress, and browser/manual dashboard review.

0.6.1 · October 16, 2026

• Process runtime charts remain visible for targets that report process metrics without HTTP metrics.
• Dashboard API refresh failures retain the App status pill and provide an accessible explanation.
• A new Javalin recipe exposes application-owned statlite-metrics/v1 data through Javalin's Micrometer instrumentation. It uses the existing statlite-metrics target type.
• Verified Linux amd64/arm64 release images are available on Docker Hub alongside GHCR.
• Native installation and first-configuration guidance are clearer; Chart.js, purego, x/sys, SQLite, and its matching libc dependency are updated.

The exact candidate passed Spring Boot 3/4, Quarkus, Micronaut 5/4, historical SQLite upgrade, rebased long-history stress, and browser/manual dashboard checks. The Javalin recipe remains outside framework certification.

0.6.0 · October 5, 2026

Added first-class Micronaut monitoring and clearer framework integration guidance.

Configure an explicit micronaut target pointing to the application's Micrometer Prometheus endpoint. StatLite collects its fixed request, latency, JVM runtime, and restart signals, with optional management health and visible aggregate JDBC health.

Typed inspection checks compatible metrics and generates configuration:

statlite inspect --type micronaut http://localhost:8080/prometheus

The release includes a runnable demo and a deterministic integration journey. Micronaut 5.2.11 is the primary certified runtime, with retained Micronaut 4.9.9 support.

Micronaut health restart detection preserves its baseline through partial metrics failures. Spring, Quarkus, and Micronaut target references explain their configuration and monitoring boundaries; Python integration and deployment guidance are also clearer.

The release candidate passed both Micronaut runtime contracts, the Spring Boot 3/4 matrix, Quarkus regression, historical SQLite upgrade, live browser checks, and manual dashboard review. Long-history stress exercised 2.59 million polls with populated dashboard ranges and no HTTP failures.
