Installation
------------
Clone the GitHub repo and run:
$ python setup.py install
Or, to install remotely from GitHub run:
$ pip install git+https://github.com/alerta/alerta-contrib.git#subdirectory=plugins/pagerduty
Note: If Alerta is installed in a python virtual environment then plugins
need to be installed into the same environment for Alerta to dynamically
discover them.
Configuration
-------------
Add `pagerduty` to the list of enabled `PLUGINS` in `alertad.conf` server
configuration file and set plugin-specific variables either in the
server configuration file or as environment variables.
SERVICE_KEY_MATCHERS takes an array of dictionary objects, mapping a regular
expression to a PagerDuty API integration key. This allows sending alerts to
multiple PagerDuty service integrations, based on 'alert.resource'.
```python
PLUGINS = ['pagerduty']
PAGERDUTY_SERVICE_KEY = '' # default="not set"
SERVICE_KEY_MATCHERS = [] # default="not set"
```
The `DASHBOARD_URL` setting should be configured to link pushover messages to
the Alerta console:
```python
DASHBOARD_URL = '' # default="not set"
```
**Example**
```python
PLUGINS = ['reject', 'pagerduty']
PAGERDUTY_SERVICE_KEY = '2a675ee0f6a640098ee05ac9378e4eba'
SERVICE_KEY_MATCHERS = [ {"regex":"proxy[\\d+]","api_key":"6b982ii3l8p834566oo13zx9477p1zxd"} ]
DASHBOARD_URL = 'https://try.alerta.io'
```
