I was watching TechnoTim and saw a cool video he had on Uptime Kuma. I decided I wanted to set up my own instance of Uptime Kuma for the following reasons:
- I wanted to receive notifications if any of my services were down
- I wanted to be able to have a live feed of my services I could display publicly
Here’s the code I used:
-
version: '2' services: uptime-kuma: image: louislam/uptime-kuma:1 container_name: uptime-kuma volumes: - ./data:/app/data ports: - 3001:3001 restart: unless-stopped
Setup was relatively simple. I also enabled 2FA, and added my services one at a time through the Web UI.
A few of the services had issues with HTTP(s)
, so I used Ping
instead. I also had to use TCP Port
for my Jellyfin
and Tdarr
instances. Additionally, when I set up the status page, my Minecraft
Clickable Links
pointed to my nextcloud instance for some reason.
I also added the following code to my kuma.cameronkrischel.org
entry in Nginx Reverse Proxy Manager:
-
location /status/homelab/ { proxy_pass http://<Podman IP>:3001/status/homelab; proxy_set_header Upgrade $http_upgrade; proxy_set_header Connection "upgrade"; allow all; } location /api/status-page/heartbeat/homelab { proxy_pass http://<Podman IP>:3001/api/status-page/heartbeat/homelab; proxy_set_header Upgrade $http_upgrade; proxy_set_header Connection "upgrade"; allow all; } location /api/status-page/homelab/manifest.json { proxy_pass http://<Podman IP>:3001/api/status-page/homelab/manifest.json; proxy_set_header Upgrade $http_upgrade; proxy_set_header Connection "upgrade"; allow all; } location / { return 301 https://kuma.cameronkrischel.org/status/homelab/; # deny all; }
Have a wonderful rest of your day, and as always, cheers!
