SMTP Setup on Docker Install #2

Closed ArtMason closed 3 years ago

ArtMason commented 3 years ago

Hello!

I have been going through the docs to try to figure out how I can setup smtp on a docker install. I am monitoring my websites and server but would like email alters for any downtime. I am also using the Mailgun service.

Any help or direction would be appreciated.

Thank you!

Art

@ArtMason it seems this is not exactly baked in prometheus, but it's in alertmanager which integrates with prometheus nicely

see https://prometheus.io/docs/alerting/latest/configuration/ for smtp configs also, this would be an additional container you will be required to run on your machine to do this work

This is also something you'd be able to configure through Grafana; see https://grafana.com/docs/grafana/latest/alerting/

For now, it's out of scope for this project though, because I'm just doing monitoring, not alerting as well (that can open a whole new can of worms).
