Currently in development. Things may change or break until a solid release has been announced.
- List your services components.
- Log incidents.
- Apply a custom stylesheet to the status page.
- Markdown support for incident messages.
- RESTful API.
- Translated into several languages.
- Metrics.
- Cross-database support: MySQL, PostgreSQL and SQLite.
- PHP 5.4 or newer
- mcrypt extension
- Composer
The following extra dependencies are required to develop Cachet.
- Node.js
- Bower
- Gulp
You can now find our documentation at https://docs.cachethq.io or, directly at http://cachet.readme.io if the first link fails to load. Cachet Demo.
To test out the demo, you may login to the Dashboard with the following:
- Username: test@test.com
- Password: test123
The demo is reset every half past the hour.
Here is a list of things that Cachet is not or does not do:
- It does not monitor your services. It works only as a way to display the status of your services. However, Cachet is able to receive updates from third-party services via its API.
- It does not work on a plugin system. There are no monitoring services to extend.
- It's not a Twitter clone.
Run a DB container (you can either pass in environment variables for the DB, or mount a config with -v /my/database.php:/var/www/html/app/config/database.php
):
$ export DB_USERNAME=cachet
$ export DB_PASSWORD=cachet
$ export DB_ROOT_PASSWORD=cachet
$ export DB_DATABASE=cachet
$ docker run --name mysql -e MYSQL_USER=$DB_USERNAME -e MYSQL_PASSWORD=$DB_PASSWORD -e MYSQL_ROOT_PASSWORD=$DB_ROOT_PASSWORD -e MYSQL_DATABASE=$DB_DATABASE -d mysql
Initialize the DB if you haven't yet:
$ docker run --link mysql:mysql -e DB_HOST=mysql -e DB_DATABASE=$DB_DATABASE -e DB_USERNAME=$DB_USERNAME -e DB_PASSWORD=$DB_PASSWORD cachethq/cachet:latest php artisan migrate --force
Run Cachet:
$ docker run -d --name cachet --link mysql:mysql -p 80:8000 -e DB_HOST=mysql -e DB_DATABASE=$DB_DATABASE -e DB_USERNAME=$DB_USERNAME -e DB_PASSWORD=$DB_PASSWORD cachethq/cachet:latest
Now go to http://<ipdockerisboundto>/setup
and have fun!
Note: When running in production you should ensure that you enable SSL. This is commonly achieved by running Nginx with your certificates on your Docker host, service or load balancers in-front of the running container, or by adding your custom SSL certificates and configuration to the supplied Nginx configuration.
- cachet-monitor - For URL monitoring. Automatic incident updates.
- sensu-cachet - Sensu handler for updating CachetHQ.
