Dog Push not working

[cagman]

Hi ,

I'm currently having issues running dogpush diff/push. Im able to download the config and init a new alerts file, however when I add the 'rule_files' file name reference to the config.yaml, i get the following errors:

Traceback (most recent call last):

Can you please advise if i'm doing something wrong

I'm experiencing something similar, and it appears to be a problem with dogpush outputting

options:
    escalation_message: !!python/unicode ''

into the monitors YAML. I'm not sure what caused this to start happening.

[cagman]

To add some further information, i was was running Dog Push off MacOS Sierra. As a work around, I was able to spin a Centos instance on AWS and it worked without issue.

[cfstout]

FWIW I saw the same issues, looks to be a python to yaml serialization problem or something. Simply removing the !!python/unicode part and just leaving the empty string worked for me.

[brownjohnf]

Yeah, removing the string works, until you pull down active monitors again and it adds that string back into the YAML.

I was able to fix this by changing:

DogPush/dogpush/dogpush.py

Line 93 in e7e6a33

yaml.dump(d, width=CONFIG['dogpush']['yaml_width']), flags=re.M)

From yaml.dump to yaml.safe_dump

[cagman]

Confirmed that fix worked. Thanks @ewhauser

[bit-herder]

can we get this merged? this essentially makes this software unusable. did the dev abandon this?

Last commit on this project was Oct 31, 2017. Looks to be dead. There's a more active fork https://github.com/dronedeploy/DogPush, I can try to PR my fix there..?

[ewhauser]

That's our fork. If you submit a PR, we will merge it.
