Alerters

Sending automated alerts to chat services.

Alerters allow you to send messages to chat services (like Slack, Discord, Mattermost, etc.) from within your pipelines. This is useful to immediately get notified when failures happen, for general monitoring/reporting, and also for building human-in-the-loop ML.

Alerter Flavors

Currently, the SlackAlerter and DiscordAlerter are the available alerter integrations. However, it is straightforward to extend ZenML and build an alerter for other chat services.

How to use Alerters with ZenML

Each alerter integration comes with specific standard steps that you can use out of the box.

However, you first need to register an alerter component in your terminal:

zenml alerter register <ALERTER_NAME> ...

Then you can add it to your stack using

zenml stack register ... -al <ALERTER_NAME>

Afterward, you can import the alerter standard steps provided by the respective integration and directly use them in your pipelines.
