Beta Release version 0.2.5-b02

Second build to fix a couple of issues:

• The email script was sending blank emails if the downtime counts was not divisible by 3. The script is meant to send emails only after each 3 failed checks (45 minutes by default). But it was sending one every 15 minutes, two blanks and one with actual data. This has been fixed.
• Added a screenshots folder for documentation purposes. Accidentally checked it in earlier. Added it to .gitignore
• Updated readme to point to the newly created release
• Typos

These following were posted in the last build, they remain the same:

• Updated README with more documentation steps
• Added the following GET web services into the Flask App
  • Get Cron - get a list of all cron jobs
  • Get Notifications - get a list of every time the app tried to notify you via email, whether it was successful or not
• Added the following PUT web services into the Flask App
  • Override Green - override the on/off status of the green LED as defined by cron jobs
  • Check Frequency - modify how often sites are checked
  • Update Cron - modify all cron jobs based on their comment (unique identifier)
• Moved GPIO Pin settings into the configuration file for easier editing
• Fixed bug to allow saving notifications to database to keep track of successful and failed email notifications
• Typos
• Other bug fixes

Beta Release version 0.2.3-b01

Beta release of version 0.2.3. Application is ready to work in headless mode. These fixes were made:

• Email notification triggers are now stored in the notifications table as 'success' or 'fail'
• Flask App offers these 4 GET services:
  • Get Current Status - gets the status of all sites in the currentStatus table - this table includes any websites that were previous monitored. Those sites will appear as 'down'
  • Get Activity - gets all status updates for sites at all times whenever the sites are checked
  • Get Outages - gets all data in the outages table that which records when websites were down
  • Get Downtime Counts - gets data from the downtimeCounts table which keeps track of websites that report offline in multiple checks
• All end points also take the following two URL parameters along with their default values if not defined:
  • page (default: 1)
  • limit (default: 25)
  • Example: {{addr}}/getActivity?page=2&limit=100 (this will output records 101 to 200 on page 2)
