Cachet - status page system

[d19dotca]

@girish - Definitely lots of alternatives. I think the more common ones to Cachet is StatPing, Staytus (although apparently it's discontinued but not too old), a newer one called Statusfy, list goes on. I'm going to try to package together one someday as well as a custom app and see how it goes.

Actually, I think we should wait for the 2.4 release - https://github.com/CachetHQ/Cachet/issues/3968 . If there is another status page system, we can look into packaging that.

After a quick research, I found the following: https://github.com/bazzite/statusfy

No idea if this fits the bill though.

Staytus would be amazing to have.

@girish Would you be able to push an unstable release of Staytus or CachetHQ by now?

[girish]

@Trankery From what I can tell, staytus hasn't been developed in a while (last commit almost a year ago). CachetHQ is active but hasn't release in a while as well (https://github.com/CachetHQ/Cachet/issues/3968). I am waiting for some upstream response before publishing it because don't want people using apps that are not actively maintained.

I played around with statping today. What intrigues me about it (apart from it being written in golang) is the ability to use custom webhooks and even own scripts for notifications.

App is located at https://git.cloudron.io/fbartels/statping-app/, but surely can use some more polish. But it is generally in an "it works" state.

Made another basic app based on https://monitoror.com/.

Monitoror is a quite passive status page meant to be displayed on a large screen, so does not offer any way to interact with it.

code: https://git.cloudron.io/fbartels/monitoror-app
my installation: https://monitor.9wd.eu/?configPath=./config.json

monitoror has this one downside to me that you cannot pass a default configuration but always need to specify the configuration through the url. this makes monitoror very flexible since one installation can serve a practically unlimited amount of dashboards, but you also always need to know the name of your configuration.

Monitoror can work together with statping since it can parse and show data from the json status of statping.

apart from that statping seems to have some bugs that make it a bit difficult. like for whatever reason I cannot use local assets, but must use their cnd. i have mixed feelings about the android app and the auto configuration through the qr code did not work for me (did not fill api secret). but still everything else looks to be less simple, but flexible.

Is anyone able to provide a cloudron based copy of staytus.co?
Or is there already one?

If so, it would be really nice to have someone explain how to install it using the cli.

Thanks!

Just a heads up, we've released statping as unstable for now. The forum section is at https://forum.cloudron.io/category/92/statping

Just noticed that Vivaldi Browser services use CachetHQ for their status page:

• https://vivaldistatus.com/

Not found anything that compares to Updown.io yet but CachetHQ looks decent and the demo shows more features like explaining incidents:

• https://demo.cachethq.io/

The thing I don't like about StatPing is the red blocks for a whole day when you might have had a 1 minute outage.

I just wish there was a dark mode and a reliable way to configure statping w/o breaking it every time.

+1 to this app addition. Would even donate to see it added. Cloudron saves me so much time and money, I need a good status page like that on it.

I think it's not actively maintained anymore - https://github.com/CachetHQ/Cachet/issues/4326

Uptime Kuma does the job nicely imho.

[marcusquinn]

@jdaviescoates It's the incident communication element that makes Cachet more suitable for business.

Thanks, I'm not sure exactly what that is (?), but is it much different from all the notifications Uptime Kuma supports?

See https://github.com/louislam/uptime-kuma/issues/284

[marcusquinn]

@jdaviescoates This. Generally considered good courtesy for a company to be transparent about issues and responses, and a legal obligation under GDPR to log any potential breach incidents, with advice on who might be affected, what is being done, and how those affected my protect themselves best from any incident.

[jdaviescoates]

@marcusquinn aha, gotcha, nice.

This would make me sign up to Cloudron

If you are around, there is hope! Cachet is back and they made a new release - https://github.com/cachethq/cachet/releases/tag/v2.4.0 .
