title: gatus

## Overview
The Gatus stack is a service monitor for NetGrimoire, responsible for monitoring the health and status of various services within the system. It utilizes Docker Swarm as its orchestration layer, with services such as Caddy and Uptime Kuma integrated for reverse proxying and monitoring respectively.
---
The `gatus` stack is a service monitor for NetGrimoire, providing real-time status monitoring of the system. It exposes the `status.netgrimoire.com` domain, making it accessible to users. The `homepage.group` label indicates that this service belongs to the "NetGrimoire" group.
## Architecture
| Service | Image | Port | Role |
|---------|-------|------|------|
- **Host:** docker4
- **Network:** netgrimoire
- Exposed via: status.netgrimoire.com, gatus:8080
- Homepage group: NetGrimoire
- **gatus:** twinproduction/gatus:latest |
- **Exposed via:** status.netgrimoire.com (caddy-docker-proxy labels) |
- **Homepage group:** NetGrimoire |

## User Guide
title: User Guide
### Accessing gatus
| Service | URL | Purpose |
|---------|-----|---------|
- Caddy | status.netgrimoire.com | Reverse Proxy
- Uptime Kuma | https://status.netgrimoire.com | Monitoring
- **gatus:** status.netgrimoire.com |
### Primary Use Cases
To access the Gatus dashboard, navigate to `https://status.netgrimoire.com` and log in with your credentials.
To use the `gatus` service, simply access the `status.netgrimoire.com` domain.
### NetGrimoire Integrations
This service connects to other services such as Authentik for authentication purposes.
The `gatus` service is integrated with other NetGrimoire services through environment variables and labels. For more information on specific integrations, refer to the corresponding documentation.

## Operations
title: Operations
### Monitoring
Uptime Kuma monitors the health of this service. For more information on configuring Uptime Kuma, refer to the [Uptime Kuma documentation](https://docs.uptimekuma.com/).
```bash
docker stack services gatus
docker service logs -f gatus
```
### Backups
Critical: The `/DockerVol/gatus/data` volume is critical for storing data.
Critical data is stored in `/DockerVol/gatus/data`. Non-critical data is stored in `/DockerVol/gatus/config`.
Reconstructable: The `/DockerVol/gatus/config` volume is reconstructable, as it contains configuration files.
### Restore
To restore the `gatus` service, run the following command:
```bash
./deploy.sh
```

title: Common Failures
## Common Failures
| Symptom | Cause | Fix |
|---------|-------|-----|
- Service not responding | Docker service not running | Check the Docker services and restart them if necessary.
- Configuration issues | Environment variables not set correctly | Verify that environment variables are set correctly in the `.env` file.
| gatus not responding | Insufficient resources | Increase resource allocation |
| Caddy configuration errors | Incorrect caddy labels | Update caddy labels in the stack file |
| Network connectivity issues | Misconfigured network settings | Verify network settings in the stack file |
