🔍 Lab Monitor (Pushover + GitHub Actions)

This repository monitors external URLs (e.g. your homelab services) and sends alerts via Pushover if any of them go down.

✅ How It Works

• Every 5 minutes, GitHub Actions runs a workflow that:
  • Checks a list of URLs (e.g. https://woodpecker.dvirlabs.com)
  • If the status code is 502 or 404, sends an alert via Pushover

🔐 Setup

1. Create a free Pushover account.
2. Get your User Key and App Token.
3. Go to your repo → Settings → Secrets → Actions → Add these:
   • PUSHOVER_USER = your user key
   • PUSHOVER_TOKEN = your app token

🧪 Test

Temporarily change the URL to something invalid and watch for a Pushover alert.
