alerta

alerta deploys monitoring for domains, services and servers of Hackspace Marburg using Prometheus with Alertmanager and Alertmanager IRC Relay using NixOS.

Secret management

For not leaking credentials, two relevant NixOS settings are omitted in the repository and are documented here.

{

  services.prometheus.alertmanagerIrcRelay.settings.irc_nickname_password = "super-secret-phrase";
  
  services.nginx.virtualHosts."alerta.nau.icu".locations."/".basicAuth = {
    obvious-nickname = "not-so-secret-phrase";
  };

}

TODO

• Change domain for the Alertmanger Web UI to alerta.hsmr.cc.
