🔖 Feature description

I would like to be able the current status as a text file that I can view with less, I am using Kuma on a root server that I access with ssh and do not necessarily have the web page open. It would be nice to have a file where you do less status.txt to see the current state.

I didn't find such a file, I only found the db files which are sqlite I assume

✔️ Solution

Provide a cronjob or alike to create a status file every minute to dump the status as a text or markdown file
(or a local file that can be viewed with lynx as html)

Alternatives

the alternative is to parse the status page with lynx and view that, I think that is possible, but would not look as good

Also, a text only page on the status page would be possible that you could view with curl (e.g. a markdown text url)
