Mento Alerts

This repository manages our alert rules with Terraform.

Current Integrations

• Forwarding Sentry issues to project-specific Discord channels.

Prerequisites

• Terraform >= 1.10.0
• A Discord server with:
  • A category for alert channels
  • The Sentry integration installed and configured
• A Discord Bot token with admin permissions to allow it to CRUD channels on the server
• An active Discord integration in our Sentry organization

Setup

1. Copy the example tfvars file:

cp terraform/terraform.tfvars.example terraform/terraform.tfvars

1. Configure the required variables in terraform.tfvars (follow the instructions in the file's comments)

2. Initialize your Terraform environment:

cd terraform
terraform init
terraform plan
terraform apply

What Terraform creates

For each Sentry project:

1. A Discord channel named #sentry-{project-name}
2. A Sentry alert rule that forwards errors to that channel
3. Proper permissions for the Sentry integration to access the channels
