Problem with Push Monitor Notifications

Is it a duplicate question? No.

Describe your problem @louislam - thanks a lot for this new push monitor functionality and API! I’ve had some success with getting this working for uptime monitoring of a system behind a Firewall/NAT. After setting up the Push Monitor (with Retries set to 1) and adapting the URL, I setup a cron job on the remote system like this:

* * * * * wget --quiet -O /dev/null https://[MYUKDOMAIN]/push/WZx29LBXFB?msg=OK&ping=100

What seems weird is that:

• The ping value doesn’t populate in the Monitor (shows as N/A) - as you can see I’m passing in a static value for testing
• If I comment out the cron job above and wait 2 minutes, the monitor status moves to PENDING and then a DOWN notification is sent as expected and the monitor event for DOWN is logged
• If I then uncomment the cron job and wait 1 minute, the monitor status does change to UP as expected, however no notification is sent and no monitor event gets logged

Do these seem like bugs to you too?

& is a special char in linux that move job to background, and You need to escape this char if You want to pass ping value. https://[MYUKDOMAIN]/push/WZx29LBXFB?msg=OK&ping=100 I have tested this, and It should bring monitor to OK, but will not pass static ping value.

Actually if you enclose the url in " " you don’t have to escape the &.

“https://[MYUKDOMAIN]/push/WZx29LBXFB?msg=OK&ping=100”

I use curl (-k -s) with “” around the whole url and I pass a previously captured ping value to the url as a variable:

ttl=`ping -c 1 MY.UK.DOMAIN | tail -1 | cut -d '/' -f 5`
curl -k -s "https://[MYUKDOMAIN]/push/WZx29LBXFB?msg=OK&ping=$ttl"

This is a scripted method.

For a one liner in your crontab you could do:

* * * * * ping -c 1 MY.UK.DOMAIN | tail -1 | cut -d '/' -f 5 | xargs -I []  curl -k -s "https://[MYUKDOMAIN]/push/WZx29LBXFB?msg=OK&ping=[]"

This monitor type is AWESOME! Thank You @louislam!

• Does your green “pill” bar shows the percentage for this monitor type? On my instance it is stuck on 0%.
