Installation

  1. Clone the repository or download the source code:

    git clone https://github.com/harsxv/tinystatus.git
    cd tinystatus
    
  2. Install the required dependencies:

    pip install -r requirements.txt
    

Configuration

  1. Create a .env file in the project root and customize the variables:

    MONITOR_CONTINOUSLY=True
    CHECK_INTERVAL=30
    MAX_HISTORY_ENTRIES=100
    LOG_LEVEL=INFO
    CHECKS_FILE=checks.yaml
    INCIDENTS_FILE=incidents.md
    TEMPLATE_FILE=index.html.theme
    HISTORY_TEMPLATE_FILE=history.html.theme
    STATUS_HISTORY_FILE=history.json
    HTML_OUTPUT_DIRECTORY=/var/www/htdocs/status/
    
  2. Edit the checks.yaml file to add or modify the services you want to monitor. Example:

     - title: 'Group 1'
       checks:
         - name: GitHub Home
           type: http
           host: https://github.com
           url: https://docs.github.com/en
           expected_code: 200
    
         - name: Google Public DNS
           type: ping
           host: 8.8.8.8
    
         - name: Dummy MySQL Database
           type: port
           host: db.example.com
           port: 3306
    
        - name: Home Server with Self-Signed Certs
           type: http
           host: https://homeserver.local
           ssc: True
           expected_code: 200
  3. (Optional) Customize the incidents.md file to add any known incidents or maintenance schedules.

  4. (Optional) Modify the index.html.theme and history.html.theme files to customize the look and feel of your status pages.

Usage

  1. Run the TinyStatus script:

    python tinystatus.py
    
  2. The script will generate three files:

    • index.html: The main status page
    • history.html: The status history page
    • history.json: The status history and timestamp data
  3. To keep the status page continuously updated, you can run the script in the background:

    • On Unix-like systems (Linux, macOS):
      nohup python tinystatus.py &
      
    • On Windows, you can use the Task Scheduler to run the script at startup.
  4. Serve the generated HTML files using your preferred web server (e.g., Apache, NGINX, or a simple Python HTTP server for testing).

Using Docker

In order to run the script using Docker:

 docker build -t tinystatus .
 docker run -ti --rm --name tinystatus -v "$PWD":/usr/src/myapp -w /usr/src/myapp tinystatus

Customization

  • Adjust the configuration variables in the .env file to customize the behavior of TinyStatus.
  • Customize the appearance of the status page by editing the CSS in index.html.theme and history.html.theme.
  • Add or remove services by modifying the checks.yaml file.
