Why use fikkie?

• Fikkie is easy to set up
• Fikkie is lightweight
• Fikkie is flexible and could be used to monitor any service
• Fikkie notifies you using your favorite messaging service (e.g. e-mail, Discord or Telegram)

You just need one single YAML file to configure fikkie, so simply specify which commands should be run on which servers and what output is expected, and fikkie will let you know when something's wrong.

Install fikkie using pip and initialize fikkie:

pip install fikkie
fikkie init

Or use Docker!

docker run \
  --mount type=bind,source=${PWD}/config.yaml,target=/root/.fikkie/config.yaml \
  nootr/fikkie

The fikkie configuration file is placed at ~/.fikkie/config.yaml by default and could look something like this:

servers:
  primary.foo.com:
    - description: 'MariaDB status'
      command: 'sudo systemctl status mariadb | grep "Active: active" -c'
      expected: '1'
    - description: 'HTTP code foo.com'
      command: 'curl -s -o /dev/null -w "%{http_code}" foo.com'
      expected: '200'

notifiers:
  - type: telegram
    token: '1234:abcd'
    chat_id: 1234
