alerting
========

This is the elasticsearch alerting plugin repo.

Sample Alert : 
````
POST _search/template/myAlertQuery
{ 
  "template": { "match_all" : {}  }
}

POST .alerts/alert/myTestAlert
{
    "query" : "myAlertQuery",
    "schedule" : "00 * * * * ?",
    "trigger" : {
         "numberOfEvents" : ">2"
     },
    "timeperiod" : "300s",
     "action" : {
         "email" : {
           "addresses" : [ "brian.murphy@elasticsearch.com" ]
         }
     },
    "version" : 1,
    "lastRan" : "2014-05-05T12:12:12.123Z", 
    "indices" : [ "logstash*" ] 
}
````

This will create an alert that runs over all events every minute looking at the last 5 minutes, sending an email to brian.murphy@elasticsearch.com when there are more than 2 events in a 5 minute window.

The email will look like : 
````
The following query triggered because numberOfEvents > 1
The total number of hits returned : 25
For query : {
  "query" : {
    "filtered" : {
      "query" : {
        "template" : {
          "id" : "myAlertQuery"
        }
      },
      "filter" : {
        "range" : {
          "@timestamp" : {
            "gte" : "2014-08-13T16:45:00.000Z",
            "lt" : "2014-08-13T16:50:00.000Z"
          }
        }
      }
    }
  }
}
