+# Grafana SMS alert
+
+Send Grafana alerts via SMS to a mobile phone, using a GSM modem that
+understands AT commands, such as the Huawei E3131 broadband USB dongle.
+Fancy SaaS alerting services are great, but what if you want to know
+that the internet is down?
+
+This runs as a service on `localhost:8201` - once you've started it,
+create a "Webhook" type contact point in your Grafana instance
+with the url `http://localhost:8201`.
+
+See Grafana [alerting contact points](https://grafana.com/docs/grafana/latest/alerting/contact-points/) documentation for background
+
+
+## Installation (Nix)
+
+TBD
+
+## Testing
+
+Use the sample-alert.json in this repo to simulate the Grafana webhook
+invocation and check it's operational
+
+
+ curl -v --data @sample-alert.json http://localhost:8201
