  • signal-cli

    signal-cli provides an unofficial commandline, JSON-RPC and dbus interface for the Signal messenger.

  • Started with just email integrations, and added other integration types over time, one by one. A few were contributed as GitHub PRs.

    The Signal one took by far the most effort to get going. But, for ideological reasons, I really wanted to have it :-) Unlike most other services, Signal doesn't have public HTTP API for sending messages. Instead you have to run your own local Signal client and send messages through it. Healthchecks is using signal-cli: https://github.com/AsamK/signal-cli

  • Healthchecks

    Open-source cron job and background task monitoring service, written in Python & Django

  • Healthchecks runs an endless loop of

    10 send any due notifications

    20 SLEEP 2

    30 GOTO 10

    The actual loop [1] is of course a little more complicated, and is being run concurrently on several machines.
