Setting up Slack

Head on over to the Incoming WebHooks Slack app. If you're signed in to your Slack Workspace you should see an Add Configuration button. Hit it!

Select or create a new channel then hit the Add Incoming WebHooks integration

Grab the WebHook URL and paste it into the SLACK_WEBHOOK_URL, which would look like so:

SLACK_WEBHOOK_URL=https://hooks.slack.com/services/XXXXXX/YYYYYY/XXXXXXXXXXXX

You can update

bot.monitor([
  {
    url: 'https://www.intelligo.systems', // URL of service we'll be pining
    timeout: 200 // threshold in milliseconds above which is considered degraded performance
  }
]);

with the services you wish to monitor and throw the code up on a server.
