This add the infrastructure to let other middleware report their health status back to the health middleware. A health.Healther interface is introduced and a middleware needs to implement that. A middleware that supports healthchecks is statically configured. Every second each supported middleware is queried and the global health state is updated. Actual tests have been disabled as no other middleware implements this at the moment.
health
This module enables a simple health check endpoint. By default it will listen on port 8080.
Syntax
health [ADDRESS]
Optionally takes an address; the default is :8080. The health path is fixed to /health. The
health endpoint returns a 200 response code and the word "OK" when CoreDNS is healthy. It returns
a 503. health periodically (1s) polls middleware that exports health information. If any of the
middleware signals that it is unhealthy, the server will go unhealthy too. Each middleware that
supports health checks has a section "Health" in their README.
Examples
Run another health endpoint on http://localhost:8091.
health localhost:8091
