About Statping-ng

A Future-Proof Status Page

Statping-ng strives to remain future-proof and remain intact if a failure is created. Your Statping-ng service should not be running on the same instance you're trying to monitor. If your server crashes your Status Page should still remaining online to notify your users of downtime.

- Login is admin, password admin.

The app will allow you to view services, receive notifications when a service is offline, update groups, users, services, messages, and more! Start your own Statping-ng server and then connect it to the app by scanning the QR code in settings.

The mobile app is not maintained by statping-ng and includes in-app purchases to the developer of statping.

Notifications - Slack, Email, Twilio and more

Statping-ng includes email notification via SMTP and Slack integration using Incoming Webhook. Insert the webhook URL into the Settings page in Statping-ng and enable the Slack integration. Anytime a service fails, the channel that you specified on Slack will receive a message.

View the Plugin Wiki to see detailed information about Golang Plugins. Statping-ng isn't just another Status Page for your applications, it's a framework that allows you to create your own plugins to interact with every element of your status page. Notifier's can also be create with only 1 golang file.

Easy to use Dashboard

Having a straight forward dashboard makes Statping-ng that much better. Quickly and Easy view statuses. Monitor your websites and applications with a basic HTTP GET request, or add a POST request with your own JSON to post to the endpoint.

Quick Start

Here's a few quick start guides to get you going, fast.

Docker

Use the Statping Docker Image to create a status page in seconds. Checkout the Docker Wiki to view more details on how to get started using Docker.

docker run -it -p 8080:8080 adamboutcher/statping-ng

Docker Compose

In the root (base) folder there is a standard docker-compose file that includes nginx, postgres, and Statping-ng.

docker-compose up -d

Docker Compose with Automatic SSL

You can automatically start a Statping-ng server with automatic SSL encryption using this docker-compose file. First point your domain's DNS to the Statping-ng server, and then run this docker-compose command with DOMAIN and EMAIL. Email is for letsencrypt services.

LETSENCRYPT_HOST=mydomain.com \
    LETSENCRYPT_EMAIL=info@mydomain.com \
    docker-compose -f docker-compose-ssl.yml up -d

Once your instance has started, it will take a moment to get your SSL certificate. Make sure you have a A or CNAME record on your domain that points to the IP/DNS of your server running Statping-ng.

Prometheus Exporter

Statping-ng includes a Prometheus Exporter so you can have even more monitoring power with your services. The Prometheus exporter can be seen on /metrics, simply create another exporter in your prometheus config. Use your Statping-ng API Secret for the Authorization Bearer header, the /metrics URL is dedicated for Prometheus and requires the correct API Secret has Authorization header.

scrape_configs:
  - job_name: 'statping'
    bearer_token: 'MY API SECRET HERE'
    static_configs:
      - targets: ['statping:8080']

Contributing

Statping-ng accepts Push Requests to the dev branch!

Feel free to add your own features and notifiers.You probably want to checkout the Notifier Wiki to get a better understanding on how to create your own notification methods for failing/successful services.

Testing on Statping-ng will test each function on MySQL, Postgres, and SQLite. I recommend running MySQL and Postgres Docker containers for testing.

You can find multiple docker-compose files in the dev directory.
