Status is a tool written in python that allows you to monitor your servers and services with custom bash scripts and other executables.
This is a very light and easy to use tool that does not require installation in any of the services you are monitoring.
Follow these steps:
git clone https://github.com/solanav/statuscd statuspip3 install -r requirements.txtpython3 app.py
The configuration file is a json file that contains two sections:
