Alerta accepts alerts from the standard sources like Syslog, SNMP, Prometheus, Nagios, Zabbix, Sensu and netdata. Any monitoring tool that can trigger a URL request can be integrated easily. Anything that can be scripted can also send alerts using the command-line tool. There is already a Python SDK and other SDKs are in the pipeline.
This charm does not require relations, because so far there is no support in grafana, or nagios charms, therefore it can be deployed separately and then configured manually with any of supported sources:
juju deploy cs:~huntdatacenter/alerta
Charm provides http relation for the web UI which can be related to nginx or haproxy:
juju deploy juju deploy cs:haproxy haproxy-alerta
juju add-relation haproxy-alerta alerta
Once alerta is deployed authentication is enforced, and signup of new users is disabled. Alerta generated admin account and admin credentials can be retrieved over juju:
juju run-action alerta/0 --wait get-admin-login
