README

cabot-alert-twilio

A Cabot alerting plugin that uses SMS and phone calls to get your attention. This is loosely based on the original Twilio alert plugin but rewritten and has a different take on various aspects to better fit our needs, specifically:

• The Twilio callback URL for voice messages is routed via Amazon S3 rather than directly hitting Cabot; this is important because our Cabot is not accessible externally.
• The text messages are more informative, listing which checks failed as much as space allows. Text messages are also sent for ERROR and CRITICAL events only, not WARNING.
• Voice messages repeat a few times in case you missed the message.
