How do I log in to Healthchecks?
- In the panel, open My servers and click your server.
- On the Overview tab, wait for the App row to say "Healthchecks is ready". The page refreshes itself.
- Click Open app.
- Log in with the details from the Email and Password rows. There is no setup screen.
- Each check gives you a ping address. Send a request to it when your job finishes, and you get an alert if it doesn't arrive on time.
Further down the page, the Username row and the Password row below it are for SSH. Don't use them to log in to Healthchecks.
Good to know
- Alerts go out by email. For that, add
EMAIL_HOST,EMAIL_HOST_USERandEMAIL_HOST_PASSWORDto/opt/seturack/healthchecks/compose.yamland rundocker compose up -d. Webhook, Mattermost and Microsoft Teams channels connect from the admin screen without extra settings. For Telegram, first create a bot with BotFather, addTELEGRAM_BOT_NAMEandTELEGRAM_TOKENto the same file, then rundocker compose exec hc python3 /opt/healthchecks/manage.py settelegramwebhook. - Sign-up is closed.
- The site opens over HTTPS on a free
sslip.ioaddress based on your IP. If a certificate can't be issued, it opens overhttp://instead. Only ports 80, 443 and 22 (for SSH) are open to the outside.
