[ANN] karma - an alert dashboard for Alertmanager (unsee fork)

[l.mi...@gmail.com]

Hi group,

some time ago while working for Cloudflare I wrote https://github.com/cloudflare/unsee as I was missing a dashboard I could put on a wall that would show me currently firing alerts. Earlier this year I left the company, which left unsee unmaintained (last commit is pretty much me removing myself from CODEOWNERS file - https://github.com/cloudflare/unsee/commits/master) but I still need a dashboard for my alerts. That plus a few months off and the fact that I wanted to learn React caused me to fork unsee into what is now called karma. Name change was mostly to avoid confusion (https://github.com/prymitive/unsee/issues/23) but it feels justified given that karma is ~50% code written from scratch (new UI + some backend API changes).

New repo is at https://github.com/prymitive/karma

There are docker images at https://hub.docker.com/r/lmierzwa/karma/

And a demo (with mock alerts) at http://karma-demo.herokuapp.com

I've cut a 0.10-rc2 release yesterday and unless people start reporting lots of issues I'll cut a final release soon.

Note that React comes with a lot new shiny but there's also a cost - memory usage will be higher due to the need to keep state on the client side. It should only matter if you have thousands of alerts.

Is there a page on Prometheus docs that I could drop a link on? I'm only aware of a page that tracks exporters and intergrations for Prometheus (https://prometheus.io/docs/instrumenting/exporters/) not sure if that's the correct place to put tools integrating with Alertmanager API.

That's pretty neat.

Maybe this would fit under https://prometheus.io/docs/alerting/clients/

https://prometheus.io/docs/operating/integrations/ is where we would list that sort of thing. The per-project docs have the disadvantage that they're tied to specific versions.

Nice dashboard but for some reason it says I have 208 active alerts which I know is not the case :) My Grafana dashboard only indicates 33 firing alerts :)

Having looked at the help, I could not see anywhere to set a default filter that filters out all the alerts I do not care about - any help would be great :)

I've added a helm-chart for it for Kubernetes for easy deployment: https://github.com/helm/charts/pull/8143

BTW: https://hub.docker.com/r/lmierzwa/karma/ docs refer

"docker run -e ALERTMANAGER_URI=https://alertmanager.example.com prymitive/karma:vX.Y.Z"

while the repo is lmierzwa
