Description: Alerta Release 6.6
        ==================

        The Alerta monitoring tool was developed with the following aims in mind:
        
        *   distributed and de-coupled so that it is **SCALABLE**
        *   minimal **CONFIGURATION** that easily accepts alerts from any source
        *   quick at-a-glance **VISUALISATION** with drill-down to detail

        Python 2.7 support is EOL
        -------------------------
        
        Starting with Release 6.0 only Python 3.5+ is supported. Release 5.2 was the
        last to support Python 2.7 and feature enhancements for this release ended on
        August 31, 2018. Only critical bug fixes will be backported to Release 5.2.
        
        Requirements
        ------------
        
        The only mandatory dependency is MongoDB or PostgreSQL. Everything else is optional.
        
        - Postgres version 9.5 or better
        - MongoDB version 3.x
        
        Installation
        ------------
        
        To install MongoDB on Debian/Ubuntu run:
        
            $ sudo apt-get install -y mongodb-org
            $ mongod
        
        To install MongoDB on CentOS/RHEL run:
        
            $ sudo yum install -y mongodb
            $ mongod
        
        To install the Alerta server and client run:
        
            $ pip install alerta-server alerta
            $ alertad run
        
        To install the web console run:
        
            $ wget -O alerta-web.tgz https://github.com/alerta/angular-alerta-webui/tarball/master
            $ tar zxvf alerta-web.tgz
            $ cd alerta-angular-alerta-webui-*/app
            $ python -m http.server 8000
        
            >> browse to http://localhost:8000
        
        ### Docker
        Alerta and MongoDB can also run using Docker containers, see [alerta/docker-alerta](https://github.com/alerta/docker-alerta).
        
        Configuration
        -------------
        
        To configure the ``alertad`` server override the default settings in ``/etc/alertad.conf``
        or using ``ALERTA_SVR_CONF_FILE`` environment variable::
        
            $ ALERTA_SVR_CONF_FILE=~/.alertad.conf
            $ echo "DEBUG=True" > $ALERTA_SVR_CONF_FILE
        
        Documentation
        -------------
        
        More information on configuration and other aspects of alerta can be found
        at <http://docs.alerta.io>
        
        Development
        -----------
        
        To run in development mode, listening on port 5000:
        
            $ export FLASK_APP=alerta FLASK_ENV=development
            $ pip install -e .
            $ flask run
        
        To run in development mode, listening on port 8080, using Postgres and
        reporting errors to [Sentry](https://sentry.io):
        
            $ export FLASK_APP=alerta FLASK_ENV=development
            $ export DATABASE_URL=postgres://localhost:5432/alerta5
            $ export SENTRY_DSN=https://8b56098250544fb78b9578d8af2a7e13:fa9d628da9c4459c922293db72a3203f@sentry.io/153768
            $ pip install -e .
            $ flask run --debugger --port 8080 --with-threads --reload
        
        Troubleshooting
        ---------------
        
        Problems following a direct upgrade from versions 4.x to 5.x could be
        related to the flattening of the directory structure for the app. An
        example `app.wsgi` file which works for both release 4 and 5 is as
        follows:
        
        ```
        #!/usr/bin/env python
        
        try:
            from alerta import app  # alerta >= 5.0
        except Exception:
            from alerta.app import app  # alerta < 5.0
        ```
        
        Tests
        -----
        
        To run the tests using a local Postgres database run:
        
            $ pip install -r requirements.txt
            $ pip install -e .
            $ createdb test5
            $ ALERTA_SVR_CONF_FILE= DATABASE_URL=postgres:///test5 nosetests
        
        Cloud Deployment
        ----------------
        
        Alerta can be deployed to the cloud easily using Heroku <https://github.com/alerta/heroku-api-alerta>,
        AWS EC2 <https://github.com/alerta/alerta-cloudformation>, or Google Cloud Platform
        <https://github.com/alerta/gcloud-api-alerta>
