Uptime Monitoring

[marcusquinn]

Always used updown.io and it's been decent and very cheap with no monthly subscription and credits that seem to last forever, so never needed to look for anything else. Eg:

• status.brandlight.org
• status.healthshop.net

Statping's OK but the red-marks for a whole day when there's only been an out of hours reboot looks worse than things really are.

twilio.com or bulksms.com both good for cheap SMS if needed, although you'd think free Push notifications would be preferrable.

Just looked at Zabbix - that looks amazing! Are we getting that as an App?

Haven't had the time (or need for my usecase) to migrate to something fancier. Still using PHP Server Monitor, even made an almost complete package. Since I don't need a public status page, this fulfills all my needs (it does ping, monitor certs, check for strings, mail and other services, even custom ports)

I am actually going to propose uptime-kuma as an app for cloudron. Its brand new.
Please check it out. https://github.com/louislam/uptime-kuma
Perhaps you can help package it please? It has a docker version.

[jdaviescoates]

@jagan nice, but you should create a new app wishlist thread for it so we can all upvote. Thanks!

@jdaviescoates packaged.

[jagan]

@atridad Wow that was quick!
This community is fantastic.

[A Former User]

@jagan Np! Its not ideal since it's all sitting in /app/data but I think I can clean it up for a new release tomorrow.

[marcusquinn]

@jagan This does look good! Deserves its own post.

This looks like exactly what I've been looking for for a really long time! Thanks for bringing this over to Cloudron. I tried installing it via Cloudron CLI from my Mac and it's throwing an error when I run cloudron build. It's my first time installing a 3rd party app, so maybe I'm doing it totally wrong.

I signed into my Cloudon instance in CLI, cloned the repo onto my computer, went into the directory, and typed cloudron build.

I've made sure my Node instance is up to date (using Homebrew) and I also have Docker installed via Homebrew as well.

Any help would greatly be appreciated!

@mazarian Oh weird... not sure why its just default trying to use my docker registry... O_O

Any docker wizards here who might have some insight?

[timconsidine]

@mazarian just to provide some some other experience, I downloaded @atridad repo files, but I did not use cloudron build. I went "the long way".

docker build -t <myrepo>/<appname>:<tag> .  
docker push <myrepo>/<appname>:<tag>
cloudron install --image <myrepo>/<appname>:<tag>

NB the trailing dot on 1st line
With this the build/install was seamless
Kuma now working brilliantly and I have deleted my UptimeRobot account.

thanks again @atridad

@timconsidine Perhaps I should change my instructions? @staff does the cloudron build command do some extra stuff that would be causing this?

[mazarian]

@timconsidine Thanks for this! I'm not sure how much of my issue had to do with my Mac environment but I was able to get it all setup using Ubuntu using your method and it worked like a charm!

[timconsidine]

@mazarian Great
I should have mentioned that I am a Mac user, and was doing this on a Mac Mini running Big Sur and Docker Desktop. Maybe too late to be helpful, sorry.

errr, I'm not qualified on that !
I blunder about, find what works for me and tend to stick to that.

[A Former User]

@timconsidine lol with packaging I'm the same way tbh. Cloudron was my first time editing or making a Dockerfile

I think this happenned because the docker repository was specified incorrectly when you did cloudron build. You can always cloudron build --set-repository again and it will ask you again for the repository name. The repo name should like girish/cloudron-uptime-kuma or something like that. The first part is your handle on docker hub (or equivalent). The second part is the repository name. In docker terminology, a repo is something that holds many images.

@girish You are 100% right. I'm new to a lot of this. Thank you again for all of your help!
