June Hack Day Highlight: PebbleDuty
Blog post from PagerDuty
PagerDuty's June Hack Day showcased innovative projects, with the Most Awesome award going to "PebbleDuty," developed by Daniel Ribeiro and Mark Matta. This project enables users to trigger incidents on PagerDuty directly from a Pebble watch, which connects via Bluetooth to smartphones and is highly customizable through its open SDK. By pressing a button on the watch, users can send an HTTP request to create a triggered incident, providing a convenient solution for situations when phones or laptops are inaccessible. Future enhancements aim to expand functionality to acknowledge, resolve, or escalate incidents using the watch buttons. The PebbleDuty code is available on GitHub, encouraging further development and customization.
