# Alerts

When something important happens in your app, you often want to be notified.
For exactly that purpose we have alerts.

**When you throw an alert an email will be sent to you with the given message and title.**

```js
const kontrl = require("kontrl");

kontrl.alert({
  title: "Reaching the user limit",
  message: "Watch out, we're reaching our user limit!!"
});
```

## Limits

- Every account is currently limited to 10 alerts per day.

- Currently only alerts through email is supported. More alert types will be added soon.

## Real world example

Say you want to be notified when an item in your stock gets low.

```js
const kontrl = require("kontrl");

setInterval(() => {
  if (//any items are low) {
    kontrl.alert({
      title: "Something is out of stock",
      message: "list the out of stock items..."
    });
  }
});
```
