mast-status

The Tissue Mast status page, served by GitHub Pages at status.tissue.systems.

It lives here, off the Tissue fleet, so it stays readable when the thing it reports on is down. The platform's own page is tissue.systems/status.

Who writes it

• A publisher on the Tissue monitoring host rewrites index.html every few minutes from the public Mast status API and the fleet's firing alerts, and pushes to main with a deploy key. Each render prints its time; the heading says "stale" once that time is more than ten minutes old.
• An operator writes notice.txt by hand. Its text appears under "From the operator" on every render until someone deletes it.

Posting by hand

With the publisher running, edit notice.txt and push. The next render (within two minutes) carries it:

git pull
$EDITOR notice.txt        # plain text, shown as written
git commit -am "notice: pages delayed" && git push

If the publisher itself is down, nothing will re-render, so edit index.html directly as well: put the text in a <div class="notice"> under the headline and push. The render time in the page stays old, so the page still reads as stale, which is true.
