# StaticStatus

StatusStatus is the easiest way to spin up a status page. There is no need for a

database or a backend at all. All you need to do is to clone this repo and

deploy it via Netlify.

## Deployment

### Environment variables

All of the following environment variables are required.

| Name                    | Description                                                                                                          | Value                        |

| ----------------------- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | ---------------------------- |

| `CHECK_URL`             | The URL to check the status.                                                                                         | `https://app1.example.com`   |

| `SELF_URL`              | The URL of the status page deployment.                                                                               | `https://status.example.com` |

| `INITIAL_BUILD`         | Must be `true` for first build and then set to `false`. When set to `true` all previous status entries will be lost. | `true` -> `false`            |

| `BUILD_WEBHOOK`         | A build hook URL to redeploy the status page.                                                                        | `https://api.netlify.com`    |

| `AWS_LAMBDA_JS_RUNTIME` | Static value to execute Lambda function in Node 18.                                                                  | `nodejs18.x`                 |

## Concept

This kinda works like a blockchain. A scheduled Netlify function redeploys the

status page every minute. During the build process not only the new status

is checked but also the status history is fetched from the currently deployed

status page. The new build attaches the new status to the history and deploys

the next history.

## Cost

The price for this 0-backend status page is payed in Netlify build minutes. A

single deploy has an average build time of 10 seconds which results in the

following prices per month:

| Interval  | Price        |

| --------- | ------------ |

| 1 minute  | 7300 minutes |

| 5 minutes | 1460 minutes |

## Disclaimer

This project has been created to deploy a status page in the quickest, most

easiest way possible. If you want to consistently monitor your app over a longer

period of time, a traditional status page service with a backend is probably the

way to go.

## Development

### Simulate deploy

> go run ./src/main.go

### Build styles

To build the stylesheets use the

[Tailwind CLI](https://tailwindcss.com/blog/standalone-cli).

> tailwindcss -i ./src/main.css -o ./static/main.css
