API Status Page and Monitor

Uses the super fast Falcon framework with Advanced python scheduler. NO javascript or external libs used to manipuate DOM in hopes to keep it safe and fast.

Why

Status pages are expensive! So I created this for my projects. You can see it running live

How

This is a small app that pings API endpoints and checks response. If the response is not 200 then it notifies subscribers using AWS SNS.

Currently you can subscribe to get alerts via email or SMS.

Meant to be small lightweight. Yes the css is not great, but I didnt want to add exernal libs.

Overview of Endpoints

Endpoint	Description
/status	Get the status of the API
/	Get the overview of all the endpoints

Setup

This is built against python 3.5 and Cython!

Create a new venv and install deps.

virtualenv <env_name> --python=python3
pip install -r requirements.txt
