SREPD

A PagerDuty terminal user interface focused on common SRE tasks

Note: This project is still in Alpha phase and there are bugs to be squashed.

Features:

• Retrieve and list incidents assigned to the current user, and their team(s)
• Vew a summary of an incident, including alerts and notes
• Add a note to an incident
• Reassign incidents to a (configured) "silent" user (ie. silence the alert)
• Acknowledge incidents
• Resizes nicely(-ish) when the terminal is resized

Planned Features:

• Un-Acknowledge incidents (re-assign to the Escalation Policy)
• View arbitrary incidents
• Assign incidents to any PagerDuty User ID
• Edit incident titles
• Merge incidents

Configuration

SREPD uses the Viper configuration setup, and will read required values from ~/.config/srepd/srepd.yaml.

Configuration variables have the following precedence:

command line arguments > environment variables > config file values

Required Values

• token: A PagerDuty Oauth Token
• teams: A list of PagerDuty team IDs to gather incidents for
• silentuser: A PagerDuty user ID to receive "silenced" alerts (or to troll, you do you)

Optional Values

• ignoredusers: A list of PagerDuty user IDs to exclude from retrieved incident lists. It's recommended that the "silentuser" ID is in this list.
• editor: Your choice of editor. Defaults to the $EDITOR environment variable.
• cluster_login_cmd: Command used to login to a cluster from SREPD. Defaults to /usr/local/bin/ocm backplane login
• shell: Your choice of shell to use inside of launched terminal windows. Defaults to $SHELL.
• terminal: Your choice of terminal to use when launching external commands. Defaults to /usr/bin/gnome-terminal.

An example srepd.yaml file might look like so:

---
# Editor will always be overridden by the ENV variable
# unless the ENV is not set for some reason
editor: vim

# Cluster Login options
cluster_login_cmd: "ocm-container"
shell: /bin/bash
terminal: /usr/bin/gnome-terminal

# Note that aliases, etc, are not sourced by the shell command when launching.
# This means, for example, that `ocm-container`, as normally setup using an alias, does not work, but calling the command or a symlink directly does.

# More complicated commands can be specified with space-separated strings
# terminal: "flatpak run org.contourterminal.Contour"

# PagerDutyOauthToken
token: <pagerDuty Oauth Token>

# Teams are PagerDuty team IDs to retrieve incidents
teams:
  - <pagerDuty Team ID>

# Silent User is a PagerDuty User ID to assign issues to "silence" them
silentuser: <pagerDuty User ID>

# Ignore Users is a list of PagerDuty User IDs to ignore when gathering incidents
ignoredusers:
  - <pageDuty User ID>
  - <pagerDuty User ID>

Try it out

The easiest way to get started with SREPD, after adding the required config file, is to just clone this repository and run go build -o ${GOPATH}/bin/srepd .
