Express defaults to a 100kb JSON body, which is too small for realistic imports through POST /api/v1/monitors/import/json (backups with many monitors and their config easily exceed 100kb, returning "request entity too large"). Raise the parser cap to 10mb. That covers real-world import payloads while keeping the DoS surface bounded — a larger, streaming file-upload route for imports remains desirable as a follow-up.
Checkmate backend
The backend service for Checkmate, an open source uptime and infrastructure monitoring application
This directory contains the backend of Checkmate, which handles data processing, storage, and API services for the Checkmate monitoring tool. The backend is responsible for managing uptime checks, handling real-time alerts, and storing historical monitoring data.
Checkmate's backend is designed to be lightweight and scalable, ensuring reliable performance even with a high number of active monitors.
