I don’t think this is exactly what you’re looking for, but Overseer/Jellyseerr offers notifications through Telegram for requests when they’re made, approved and available.
Right, I am looking for a solution that can alert me, if/when any of the self hosted web services goes down. Pretty much check if either the port or webpage is up and send alerts.
I saw Prometheus supports Windows. But, I think its kind of overkill for my use case. I have everything running on an old laptop. So, I am looking for a lightweight application/solution
https://healthchecks.io/
You'll have to write some kind of script that does the checking (I'd use curl to check the HTTP response code), healthchecks.io then handles the notifications.
Edit: Just an example of how such a script might look (haven't tested it, but I do something similar in linux). You can let the task scheduler run it every few minutes: https://pastebin.com/rY0FPpgk
Thank you for the script. I will look in to this.
I have posted the solution above. Thank you for suggesting the above service
