AutoKuma Β Β Kuma CLI Β Β Kuma Client
AutoKuma is a utility that automates the creation of Uptime Kuma monitors based on Docker container labels. With AutoKuma, you can eliminate the need for manual monitor creation in the Uptime Kuma UI.

Latest Release:
docker pull ghcr.io/bigboot/autokuma:latest
Dev Version:
docker pull ghcr.io/bigboot/autokuma:master
β The dev version might break or contain breaking changes without warning, usage on a production system is not adviced.

AutoKuma will read configuration from a file named autokuma.{toml,yaml,json}
in the current directory and in the following locations:
Platform | Value | Example |
---|---|---|
Linux | $XDG_CONFIG_HOME /autokuma/config.{toml,yaml,json} |
/home/alice/.config/autokuma/config.toml |
macOS | $HOME /Library/Application Support/autokuma/config.{toml,yaml,json} |
/Users/Alice/Library/Application Support/autokuma/config.toml |
Windows | %LocalAppData% \autokuma\config.{toml,yaml,json} |
C:\Users\Alice\AppData\Local\autokuma\config.toml |
An example .toml
config could look like the following:
[kuma]
url = "http://localhost:3001/"
username = "<username>"
password = "<password>"
AutoKuma interprets Docker container labels with the following format:
<prefix>.<id>.<type>.<setting>: <value>
<prefix>
: Default iskuma
unless changed using theDOCKER__LABEL_PREFIX
env variable.<id>
: A unique identifier for the monitor (ensure it's unique between all monitors).<type>
: The type of the monitor as configured in Uptime Kuma.<setting>
: The key of the value to be set.<value>
: The value for the option.
Labels are grouped by <id>
into a single monitor. For example, to create a simple HTTP monitor, use the following labels:
kuma.example.http.name: "Example"
kuma.example.http.url: "https://example.com"
Take a look at all available entity types and their corresponding settings.
To assign a monitor to a group set it's parent_name property to the autokuma id of the group, e.g.
kuma.mygroup.group.name: 'This is a Group'
kuma.mymonitor.http.name: 'This is a Monitor assigned to a Group'
kuma.mymonitor.http.parent_name: 'mygroup'
kuma.mymonitor.http.url: 'https://example.com'
WARNING: Defining Notifications is currently experimental and might change in the future.
kuma.mynotificationprovider.notification.name: 'This is a Matrix notification provider'
kuma.mynotificationprovider.notification.active: 'true'
kuma.mynotificationprovider.notification.config: '{"type": "matrix", "accessToken": "XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX", "homeserverUrl": "https://matrix.org", "internalRoomId": "!xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx:matrix.org"}'
kuma.mymonitor.http.name: 'This is a Monitor with a notification provider'
kuma.mymonitor.http.notification_names: '["mynotificationprovider"]'
kuma.mymonitor.http.url: 'https://example.com'
WARNING: Defining Docker Hosts is currently experimental and might change in the future.
kuma.mydocker.docker_host.name: 'My Docker Host'
kuma.mydocker.docker_host.connection_type: 'socket'
kuma.mydocker.docker_host.path: '/var/run/docker.sock'
kuma.mymonitor.http.name: 'This is a Docker Monitor'
kuma.mymonitor.http.docker_host_name: 'mydocker'
kuma.mymonitor.http.url: 'https://example.com'

kuma.mymonitor.http.tag_names: '[{"name": "mytag", "value": "A value (this is optional)" }]'
kuma.mymonitor.http.url: 'https://example.com'
AutoKuma allows the usage of Tera templates in labels and Snippets, the following variables are available:
Template | Description | Example Value | |
---|---|---|---|
Containers | |||
container_id |
The container id | 92366941fb1f211c573c56d261f3b3e5302f354941f2aa295ae56d5781e97221 | |
image_id |
Sha256 of the container image | sha256:c2e38600b252f147de1df1a5ca7964f9c8e8bace97111e56471a4a431639287a | |

AutoKuma provides the ability to define reusable snippets. Snippets need to be defined in the configuration, for example, using environment variables:
AUTOKUMA__SNIPPETS__WEB: |-
{{ container_name }}_http.http.name: {{ container_name }} HTTP
{{ container_name }}_http.http.url: https://{{ args[0] }}:{{ args[1] }}
{{ container_name }}_docker.docker.name: {{ container_name }} Docker
{{ container_name }}_docker.docker.docker_container: {{ container_name }}
or in an equivalent TOML config file:
[snippets]
web = '''
{{ container_name }}_http.http.name: {{ container_name }}
{{ container_name }}_http.http.url: https://{{ args[0] }}:{{ args[1] }}
{{ container_name }}_docker.docker.name: {{ container_name }}_docker
{{ container_name }}_docker.docker.docker_name: {{ container_name }}
'''
These define a snippet called web
.
A snippet can have a variable number of arguments, which are available as replacements using {{ args[0] }}
, {{ args[1] }}
, {{ args[2] }}
, etc., as seen above.
To use a snippet on a container, assign a label in the format:
<prefix>.__<snippet>: <arguments>
For example, the above snippet could be included using the following label:
kuma.__web: '"example.com", 443'
Snippets also use Tera, which allows for some quite advanced templates, here's a extended variation of the above example:
{# Assign the first snippet arg to args to make access easier #}
{% set args = args[0] %}
{# Generate an autokuma id by slugifying the "name" arg #}
{% set id = args.name | slugify %}
{# if we have a "keyword" generate a "keyword" monitor, otherwise generate a "http" monitor #}
{% if args.keyword %}
{% set type = "keyword" %}
{% else %}
{% set type = "http" %}
{% endif %}
{# below are the actual lines which end up defining the monitor #}
{{ id }}-group.group.name: {{ args.name }}
{{ id }}-http.{{ type }}.name: {{ args.name }} (HTTP)
{{ id }}-http.{{ type }}.parent_name: {{ id }}-group
{{ id }}-http.{{ type }}.url: {{ args.url }}
{% if args.keyword %}
{{ id }}-http.{{ type }}.keyword: {{ args.keyword }}
{% endif %}
{% if args.status_code %}
{{ id }}-http.{{ type }}.status_code: {{ args.status_code }}
{% endif %}
{{ id }}-http-container.docker.name: {{ args.name }} (Container)
{{ id }}-http-container.docker.parent_name: {{ id }}-group
And the usage of it would be like the following: Just a basic http monitor:
kuma.__web: '{ "name": "Example HTTP", "url": "https://example.com" }'
Keyword monitor with custom status_codes:
kuma.__web: '{ "name": "Example HTTP", "url": "https://example.com", "keyword": "Example Domain", "status_codes": ["200"] }'
In addition to reading Monitors from Docker labels, AutoKuma can create Monitors from files. This can be usefull if you have want AutoKuma to manage monitors which aren't directly related to a container.
To create static Monitors just add a .json or .toml file in the directory specified by AUTOKUMA__STATIC_MONITORS
, take a look at the examples here.
The default directory for static monitors is:
Platform | Value | Example |
---|---|---|
Linux | $XDG_CONFIG_HOME /autokuma/static-monitors/ |
/home/alice/.config/autokuma/static-monitors/ |
macOS | $HOME /Library/Application Support/autokuma/static-monitors/ |
/Users/Alice/Library/Application Support/autokuma/static-monitors/ |
Windows | %LocalAppData% \autokuma\static-monitors\ |
C:\Users\Alice\AppData\Local\autokuma\static-monitors\ |
In case of static Monitors the id is determined by the filename (without the extension).
