I am looking to monitor self hosted services that can send notifications to Telegram. Are there any web service monitoring solutions that can be installed on Windows and not installed using Docker?
I checked through awesome-selfhosted and awesome-sysadmin repos and couldn’t find one. All the ones I saw were either for Linux or container based.
EDIT: For anyone that comes across this, here is how I resolved this. Thanks to u/dotmatrix for suggesting healthchecks.io
SOLUTION
On the host
- Script to check the status of the webpage. Save the file with
ps1
extension
$hc= "https://hc-ping.com/<blahblahblah>"
$url = "https://website.com/"
$response = curl $url
if ($response.StatusCode -eq 200) {
curl $hc
} else {
curl $hc/fail
}
- Set up the above script in Task Scheduler to run every 5 mins
On HealthChecks
- Create a check
- Create a Telegram integration if you want the notification in a group/direct message/channel: https://healthchecks.io/integrations/add_telegram/
- If you want to customize the message or send the message to a topic in a group, you can create a Webhook. Instructions are here: https://github.com/healthchecks/healthchecks/issues/689#issuecomment-1409847685
