# Cloudflare Worker - Status Page
Monitor your websites, showcase status including daily history, and get Slack notification whenever your website status changes. Using **Cloudflare Workers**, **CRON Triggers,** and **KV storage**. Check [my status page](https://status-page.eidam.dev) out! 🚀
![Status Page](.gitbook/assets/status_page_screenshot.png)
![Slack notifications](.gitbook/assets/slack_screenshot.png)
## Pre-requisites
You'll need a [Cloudflare Workers account](https://dash.cloudflare.com/sign-up/workers) with
- A workers domain set up
- The Workers Bundled subscription \($5/mo\)
- [It works with Workers Free!](https://blog.cloudflare.com/workers-kv-free-tier/) Check [more info](#workers-kv-free-tier) on how to run on Workers Free.
- Some websites/APIs to watch 🙂
Also, prepare the following secrets
- Cloudflare API token with `Edit Cloudflare Workers` permissions
- Slack incoming webhook \(optional\)
- Discord incoming webhook \(optional\)
## Getting started
You can either deploy with **Cloudflare Deploy Button** using GitHub Actions or deploy on your own.
### Deploy with Cloudflare Deploy Button
[![Deploy to Cloudflare Workers](https://camo.githubusercontent.com/1f3d0b4d44a2c3f12c78bd02bae907169430e04d728006db9f97a4befa64c886/68747470733a2f2f6465706c6f792e776f726b6572732e636c6f7564666c6172652e636f6d2f627574746f6e3f706169643d74727565)](https://deploy.workers.cloudflare.com/?url=https://github.com/eidam/cf-workers-status-page)
1. Click the button and follow the instructions, you should end up with a clone of this repository
2. Navigate to your new **GitHub repository > Settings > Secrets** and add the following secrets:
```yaml
- Name: CF_API_TOKEN (should be added automatically)
- Name: CF_ACCOUNT_ID (should be added automatically)
- Name: SECRET_SLACK_WEBHOOK_URL (optional)
- Value: your-slack-webhook-url
- Name: SECRET_DISCORD_WEBHOOK_URL (optional)
- Value: your-discord-webhook-url
```
3. Navigate to the **Actions** settings in your repository and enable them
4. Edit [config.yaml](./config.yaml) to adjust configuration and list all of your websites/APIs you want to monitor
```yaml
settings:
title: 'Status Page'
url: 'https://status-page.eidam.dev' # used for Slack & Discord messages
logo: logo-192x192.png # image in ./public/ folder
daysInHistogram: 90 # number of days you want to display in histogram
collectResponseTimes: false # experimental feature, enable only for <5 monitors or on paid plans
# configurable texts across the status page
allmonitorsOperational: 'All Systems Operational'
notAllmonitorsOperational: 'Not All Systems Operational'
monitorLabelOperational: 'Operational'
monitorLabelNotOperational: 'Not Operational'
monitorLabelNoData: 'No data'
dayInHistogramNoData: 'No data'
dayInHistogramOperational: 'All good'
dayInHistogramNotOperational: 'Some checks failed'
# list of monitors
monitors:
- id: workers-cloudflare-com # unique identifier
name: workers.cloudflare.com
description: 'You write code. They handle the rest.' # default=empty
url: 'https://workers.cloudflare.com/' # URL to fetch
method: GET # default=GET
expectStatus: 200 # operational status, default=200
followRedirect: false # should fetch follow redirects, default=false
linkable: false # should the titles be links to the service, default=true
```
5. Push to `main` branch to trigger the deployment
6. 🎉
7. _\(optional\)_ Go to [Cloudflare Workers settings](https://dash.cloudflare.com/?to=/workers) and assign custom domain/route
- e.g. `status-page.eidam.dev/*` _\(make sure you include `/*` as the Worker also serve static files\)_
8. _\(optional\)_ Edit [wrangler.toml](./wrangler.toml) to adjust Worker settings or CRON Trigger schedule, especially if you are on [Workers Free plan](#workers-kv-free-tier)
### Telegram notifications
To enable telegram notifications, you'll need to take a few additional steps.
1. [Create a new Bot](https://core.telegram.org/bots#creating-a-new-bot)
2. Set the api token you received when creating the bot as content of the `SECRET_TELEGRAM_API_TOKEN` secret in your github repository.
3. Send a message to the bot from the telegram account which should receive the alerts (Something more than `/start`)
4. Get the chat id with `curl https://api.telegram.org/bot<YOUR TELEGRAM API TOKEN>/getUpdates | jq '.result[0] .message .chat .id'`
5. Set the retrieved chat id in the `SECRET_TELEGRAM_CHAT_ID` secret variable
6. Redeploy the status page using the github action
### Deploy on your own
You can clone the repository yourself and use Wrangler CLI to develop/deploy, extra list of things you need to take care of:
- create KV namespace and add the `KV_STATUS_PAGE` binding to [wrangler.toml](./wrangler.toml)
- create Worker secrets _\(optional\)_
- `SECRET_SLACK_WEBHOOK_URL`
- `SECRET_DISCORD_WEBHOOK_URL`
## Workers KV free tier
The Workers Free plan includes limited KV usage, but the quota is sufficient for 2-minute checks only
- Change the CRON trigger to 2 minutes interval (`crons = ["*/2 * * * *"]`) in [wrangler.toml](./wrangler.toml)
## Known issues
- **Max 25 monitors to watch in case you are using Slack notifications**, due to the limit of subrequests Cloudflare Worker can make \(50\).
The plan is to support up to 49 by sending only one Slack notification per scheduled run.
- **KV replication lag** - You might get Slack notification instantly, however it may take couple of more seconds to see the change on your status page as [Cron Triggers are usually running on underutilized quiet hours machines](https://blog.cloudflare.com/introducing-cron-triggers-for-cloudflare-workers/#how-are-you-able-to-offer-this-feature-at-no-additional-cost).
- **Initial delay (no data)** - It takes couple of minutes to schedule and run CRON Triggers for the first time
## Future plans
WIP - Support for Durable Objects - Cloudflare's product for low-latency coordination and consistent storage for the Workers platform. There is a working prototype, however, we are waiting for at least open beta.
There is also a managed version of this project, currently in beta. Feel free to check it out https://statusflare.com (https://twitter.com/statusflare_com).
## Running project locally
**Requirements**
- Linux or WSL
- Yarn (`npm i -g yarn`)
- Node 14+
### Steps to get server up and running
**Install wrangler**
```
npm i -g wrangler
```
**Login With Wrangler to Cloudflare**
```
wrangler login
```
**Create your KV namespace in cloudflare**
```
On the workers page navigate to KV, and create a namespace
```
**Update your wrangler.toml with**
```
kv-namespaces = [{binding="KV_STATUS_PAGE", id="<KV_ID>", preview_id="<KV_ID>"}]
```
_Note: you may need to change `kv-namespaces` to `kv_namespaces`_
**Install packages**
```
yarn install
```
**Create CSS**
```
yarn run css
```
**Run**
```
yarn run dev
```
_Note: If the styles do not come through try using `localhost:8787` instead of `localhost:8080`_
