Updog doesn't do any monitoring by itself. Instead, extensions are used to check the status of whatever thing, send alerts, and log stuff. Updog just chains them together.
Example extension: [askiiart/updog-logging_template](https://git.askiiart.net/askiiart/updog-logging_template)
## Folder layout
Extensions need to be put in the `./extensions/logging` folder, and the name of the file must match the name of the folder.
```txt
.
├── extensions
│ ├── logging
│ └── logging_template
│ └── logging_template.py
```
## Methods
`*`: indicates a method is required
### `__init__()`*
**Arguments**:
- A dict of arguments from `logging-args` in `services.json` - For no arguments, an empty dict will be used
**Return**: None
### `log()`*
**Arguments**: `service_name`, `code`, `status`
-`service_name`: The name of the service the logger is logging - currently it's always the same value for a single instance, but this is required for compatibility when support for logging multiple things with one instance of the logger is supported.
-`code`: The status code returned by the checker
-`status`: The status message for that status code
