🔖 Feature description

Is there a way that one can add sites from the command line? The UI is well done and useful, but I have dozens of sites I'd like to add (I'm a new Kuma user, and this is a new install), but I'd rather not have to maintain them, en-mass, by hand.

✔️ Solution

I'll probably end up attempting to reverse engineer this, as I have an Immediate need for it. Are there technical documentations that I can use to assist in this?

❓ Alternatives

Currently, there is no CLI and adding one is blocked by #118 imo.
See PR #3854 for further details on planned progress.

Note that third partys have created an api wrapper around our websockets:

Where can I find details on the WebSocket messaging? Has this been documented?

UPDATE: Given that using the WebSockets appears to not be the preferred method, and that I do not know Python (yet), is there a way to add monitors via accessing the kuma.db file and adding information to the tables therein?

Please note, I am not looking for something permanent. I just need to get our sites into some form of monitoring now and am willing to look, code, document methods for formally adding them later.

Thanks for your hard work in developing this tool! Works nicely!

You can do that, but I would recomend using the third party python api instead.

see https://uptime-kuma-api.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html

from uptime_kuma_api import UptimeKumaApi
api = UptimeKumaApi('INSERT_URL')
api.login('INSERT_USERNAME', 'INSERT_PASSWORD')
api.add_monitor(
    type=MonitorType.HTTP,
    name="Google",
    url="https://google.com"
)
api.disconnect()

I did manage to write something in Raku that worked out. Would you like me to share that code?

[CommanderStorm]

Given the scarily complex syntax of said language, I am a bit doubtful that we could use that code, but sure share it ^^

ROFLMAO!!!

Don't believe the hype.

I was able to do the addition script in less than a day. If said syntax was so scarily complex, I wouldn't have been able to do half of the things I've been able to accomplish in it.

(And I have over 1 million lines in over 65 separate projects in less than 6 years to prove it...)
