OpsGenie Alert Classifier

Helpful functions for analyzing an export of OpsGenie alerts and collecting useful data on them.

Functions

  • Clean (--clean cloumn1 column2 ...)
    • Specify rows from a *raw.csv file into a *clean.csv file
    • Remove (--remove keyword1 keyword2 ...)
      • A keyword to filter each cleaned row against. Matches on any value in the 'Message' column.
  • Count (--count column)
    • Count the number of alerts matching a specified column name. Passing a column name of "all" will return the total count of alerts
    • Limit (--limit limit)
      • Limit the number of results returned, ordered by count highest to lowest
    • Time Interval Filtering (--interval hour1 hour2)
      • An interval to filter the "CreatedAtDate" hour of each alert. This can be added to count.
    • Keyword matching (--match keyword)
      • A keyword to filter the specified --count column against
    • Minutes between update (--update-minutes minutes)
      • A filter matching alerts that update within x minutes (between "CreatedAt" and "UpdatedAt" timestamps)
    • Output file (--outfile filename)
      • A file to output the results of --count
  • Fuzzy Count (--fuzzy-count column)
    • Count the number of alerts for a specified column name using fuzzy matching.
    • Threshold (--threshold threshold)
      • A threshold of tolerance for fuzzy matching on your --fuzzy-count. This is based on Levenshtein Distance; Default to 90.
    • Remove Numbers (--remove-numbers boolean)
      • Remove numbers from the alert alias before performing fuzzy matching in --count. This defaults to False and should be used in conjunction with the fuzzy threshold flag.
    • Alias Strip List File (--alias-strip-list csv)
      • Remove strings from the alert alias before performing matching in --fuzzy-count. Input for this flag is a csv without headers that contains a single column of strings to strip out of the alias (e.g. server names).

Future functionality

  • Implement matplotlib (or some other package) graphing for alerts over time
  • Wrap oopsgenie into a pip installable CLI tool

Running

This requires Python3

pip install virtualenv
virtualenv -p python3 venv
source venv/bin/activate
pip install -r requirements.txt

Usage Examples:

# Clean alert-data-raw.csv to only include the columns "Alias", "CreatedAtDate", and "Teams" (creates alert-data-clean.csv)
python oopsgenie.py alert-data-raw.csv --clean Alias CreatedAtDate Teams

# Clean alert-data-raw.csv to only include the column "Alias", "CreatedAtDate", and "Teams" but exclude any message containing "staging"
python oopsgenie.py alert-data-raw.csv --clean Alias CreatedAtDate Teams --remove staging

# Get a count of all alerts
python oopsgenie.py alert-data-raw.csv --count

# Get a count of alerts grouped by the column "Alias"
python oopsgenie.py alert-data-raw.csv --count Alias

# Get a count of alerts grouped by the column "Alias" with server names stripped out
python oopsgenie.py alert-data-raw.csv --count Alias --alias-strip-list server_names.csv

# Get a count of alerts grouped by the column "Alias" and with a fuzzy matching threshold of 80%
python oopsgenie.py alert-data-raw.csv --fuzzy-count Alias --threshold 80

# Get a count of alerts grouped by the column "Alias" and with a fuzzy matching threshold of 90% and numbers removed from the alias before the fuzzy matching
python oopsgenie.py alert-data-raw.csv --fuzzy-count Alias --threshold 90 --remove-numbers True

# Get a count of all alerts grouped by the column "Alias" that are created between the hours of 04 and 13 (UTC)
python oopsgenie.py alert-data-raw.csv --count Alias --interval 4 13

# Get a count of all alerts grouped by the column "Alias" that match the keyword "gdpr"
python oopsgenie.py alert-data-raw.csv --count Alias --match gdpr

# Get a count of all alerts grouped by the column "Alias" that updated within 5 minutes of creation
python oopsgenie.py alert-data-raw.csv --count Alias --update-minutes 5

# Get a count of alerts grouped by the column "Alias" and store in a file named "alias-count.csv
python oopsgenie.py alert-data-raw.csv --count Alias --outfile alias-count.csv
