We are currently alpha-testing a fully automated statuspage GitHub app. Check out corestatus.io if you like to test it out.

Statuspage

ci codecov.io

A statuspage generator that lets you host your statuspage for free on GitHub. Uses issues to display incidents and labels for severity.

Demo

DEMO

See a real status page generated by this here demo site

Quickstart

Install statuspage with pip:

pip install statuspage

There are also binaries for macOS and Linux available, see installation for more.

Now, create an GitHub API token:

  • Go to your Personal Access tokens page.
  • Click on Generate new token.
  • Make sure to check the public_repo and write:repo_hook scope.
  • Copy the token somewhere safe, you won't be able to see it again once you leave the page.

To create a new status page, run:

statuspage create --token=<yourtoken>

You'll be prompted for a repo name and the systems you want to show a status for.

Name: mystatuspage
Systems, eg (Website,API): Website, CDN, API

Please note: This will generate a new repo under that name. Make sure it doesn't exist already.

The command takes a couple of seconds to run. Once ready, it will output links to the issue tracker and your new status page.

Create new issues at https://github.com/<login>/mystatuspage/issues
Visit your new status page at https://<login>.github.com/mystatuspage/

The generator will then print the statuspage update command filled with all the details you need to update your page.

Create an issue

To create a new issue, go to your newly created repo and click on New Issue.

  • Click on the cog icon next to labels on the right.
  • Choose the affected systems (black labels)
  • Choose a severity label (major outage, degraded performance, investigating)
  • Fill in the title, leave a comment and click on Submit new issue.

Add New Issue

Now, update your status page. Go back to your commandline and type:

statuspage update --token=<yourtoken>
Name: mystatuspage

If you change the issue (eg. when you add a new label, create a comment or close the issue), you'll need to run statuspage update again.

Adding and removing systems

In order to add or remove a system, run:

statuspage add_system --token=<token> --name=<repo> --system=<system to add>
statuspage remove_system --token=<token> --name=<repo> --system=<system to remove>

Upgrading from previous versions

First, install the latest version with pip, or grab the latest binary:

pip install statuspage --upgrade

Updating your page to the latest version is now as simple as running:

statuspage upgrade --token=<token> --name=<repo>

followed by an update:

statuspage update --token=<token> --name=<repo>
