Hey all, For context, I am self-hosting a lot of different applications on a headless server and some of them are just scripts scraping content or doing automatic tasks.
I’ve been wondering for some time about how I should handle errors and how to be notified when they happen.
Currently, I need to connect to the server and read my logs to know that something has gone wrong. But I would like to get near instant notifications on my phone or computer.
I know I could send emails, try to use signal-cli or other messaging services but some of you might have better ideas.
Should I use one of these or is there some great technology I have never heard of?
I do cover the costs yes, through donations and the paid plans.
It’s definitely fun to do some things, but others are daunting indeed. I do, however, learn a lot. I have learned a lot that I was able to reuse elsewhere. All that is priceless.
