M Prober
This program aims to collect Linux system information including hostname, kernel version, uptime, RTC time, load average, CPU, memory, network interfaces, block devices and processes. It can be used not only as a normal CLI tool, but also a web application with a front-end webpage and useful HTTP APIs.

Authorization
If you need to expose above HTTP APIs to the Internet. In order to prevent these APIs from being invoked by anyone, you can enable a simple authorization mechanism that is built in this program.
When starting the HTTP server from CLI, you can add a -a <AUTH_KEY> option. Then, every API needs to be invoked by a request which contains a Authorization header to send the AUTH_KEY.
Also, you may want to disable the web page. Just add a --only-api flag.
