Phase 3 of docs/RUST_REWRITE.md: rust/collector/src/web (axum) serves what
the FastAPI app (src/web_api.py) served, so one process collects, forecasts,
notifies and serves. With WEB_LISTEN=0.0.0.0:8000 it runs inside
`ping-collector run`; `ping-collector serve` runs it alone.
Same routes, parameters, JSON fields and field order, status codes,
{"detail": ...} errors and pydantic-style 422 lists, Cache-Control, gzip
(>500 B), CORS, Umami API tracking, the dashboard and static files, and the
stale-while-revalidate response caches (now with byte budgets: a history
response can be 10 MB). /docs is the same Swagger UI (+ /redoc); its OpenAPI
document is built from the route table, whose per-route parameter
declarations also validate the requests, so docs and behaviour cannot drift.
Python output conventions are kept: isoformat(), round(), numpy's pairwise
sums (catchment means), Python's summation order (skill metrics).
scripts/api_parity.py compares the two servers route by route on one
database (53 cases incl. errors, admin and static files; query values vary
per run so FastAPI's caches answer fresh). Locally: 53 identical; the
station CRUD writes byte-identical stations.json files; the skill/trend
logic matches on 9 station/horizon pairs with synthetic model versions.
Intended differences: /health counts the ThaiWater telemetry of the same
gauges while RID lags (as the notifier); /scraping/status adds the collector
version and last forecast run; an old stored forecast is served marked
X-Data-Stale instead of recomputed; /sensors/thaiwater is cached a minute;
.geojson is served as application/geo+json. Load (local, 16 clients): the
dashboard's routes 1375 vs 552 req/s, uncached history 714 vs 53 req/s;
25 MB resident when serving only.
Matrix (MATRIX_*): the notifier sends the room the transitions ntfy gets
(per station, outlook, feed; not ntfy's per-topic summaries), each once,
with its own matrix: keys in notification_state, seeded from ntfy's on first
use so nothing already announced repeats. Checked against a fake homeserver.
It replaces the `run.py --alert-check` cron job (repeated alerts every 15
min), which install_collector.sh now comments out (crontab backup kept).
install_collector.sh: --check-api (ping-collector serve on :8001 next to
FastAPI, api_parity.py), --cutover-api (refuses on a difference; sets
WEB_LISTEN, stops and disables water-monitor.service), --rollback-api;
--rollback-forecast and --rollback bring the Python app back as server.
ping-collector.service: MemoryMax 512M. Config::from_vars for tests; route
tests against a throwaway schema.

Quick Matrix Alerting Setup
Step 1: Get Matrix Account
- Go to https://app.element.io or install Element app
- Create account or login with existing Matrix account
Step 2: Get Access Token
Method 1: Element Web (Recommended)
- Open Element in browser: https://app.element.io
- Login to your account
- Click Settings (gear icon) → Help & About → Advanced
- Copy your "Access Token" (starts with
syt_...or similar)
Method 2: Command Line
curl -X POST https://matrix.org/_matrix/client/v3/login \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-d '{
"type": "m.login.password",
"user": "your_username",
"password": "your_password"
}'
Step 3: Create Alert Room
- In Element, click "+" to create new room
- Name: "Water Level Alerts"
- Set to Private
- Copy the room ID from room settings (format:
!roomid:matrix.org)
Step 4: Configure .env File
Add these to your .env file:
# Matrix Alerting Configuration
MATRIX_HOMESERVER=https://matrix.org
MATRIX_ACCESS_TOKEN=syt_your_access_token_here
MATRIX_ROOM_ID=!your_room_id:matrix.org
# Grafana Integration (optional)
GRAFANA_URL=http://localhost:3000
Step 5: Restart and check
The Matrix messages are sent by ping-collector (the Rust service, with
FORECAST_IN_COLLECTOR=true), together with the ntfy notifications:
sudo systemctl restart ping-collector
journalctl -u ping-collector | grep -i matrix # "Matrix notifications: room ... on ..."
# what would be sent right now (ntfy and Matrix), changing nothing:
sudo -u water-monitor /opt/thailand-water-monitor/bin/ping-collector notify --dry-run
What the room receives
The same transitions as the ntfy topics (docs/NOTIFICATIONS.md), each once: a station crossing its warning or danger level and back (0.10 m hysteresis), the P.1 early-warning outlook turning on and off, and the gauge feed going stale or recovering. ntfy's per-topic summaries ("Ping River: warning level reached") are not repeated in the room. For example:
⚠️ **Warning level at P.1**
Nawarat Bridge, Chiang Mai city: 3.75 m at 18 Oct 14:00, above the warning level of 3.70 m.
📈 Dashboard: https://water.buildfor.life/
The room has its own delivery state (matrix: keys in notification_state),
so a Matrix outage is retried on Matrix only and does not re-send ntfy.
The old run.py --alert-check cron job (every 15 minutes, repeating an alert
for as long as a level stayed high) is replaced by this;
scripts/install_collector.sh comments it out of the crontab once
ping-collector sends Matrix, keeping a backup next to the app.
Troubleshooting
- HTTP 401/403 in
journalctl -u ping-collector: the access token is invalid or the account is not in the room. - Room not found: the room ID needs the
!prefix and the:homeserversuffix. - Nothing sent: there was no transition;
ping-collector notify --dry-runshows the readings judged and what would be sent.
