🔖 Feature description

I'm interested in an auto start on demand feature that works on HTTP request calls. Basically you want to listen to a certain request, maybe a specific call, that's your trigger. When that docker service is down you, you could spin it up automatically, resolving that request.

A good example usecase is jellyfin. We don't use it that often. So the service is often stopped. Every time a family member wants to watch something they need me to spin it up. You could ask why don't you keep the service running, well because when my little Intel CPU idles it uses only a few watts. To idle and get into deep sleep I stop as many container as possible.

This feature could also support auto snooze. Since you are setting up triggers you might as well snooze the container based on its lack of activity. But not required I have a hard solution in place for this.

I thought it would interest you since you started uptime Kuma. I'll probably try to make it myself but I do think that feature belongs here.

✔️ Solution

Based on HTTP calls, create triggers to start the service.
