healthchecks - Wrapper for healthchecks.io

Allows simple signalling of statuses to healthchecks.io.

Example usage

For projects (a group of multiple checks)

You need:

• your project's ping key, generated from your project's settings
• one or multiple check slugs

package main

import (
	"context"
	"log"

	health "github.com/stnokott/healthchecks"
)

const (
	_pingKey = "mysecretpingkey"
	_slug = "foo"
)

func main() {
	// create a new project using a ping key
	project, err := health.NewProject(_pingKey)
	if err != nil {
		log.Fatalln(err)
	}

	// directly ping using a slug
	err = project.Success(context.TODO(), _slug)
	// ...

	// create notifier instance for a slug
	notifier := project.Slug(_slug_)
	err = notifier.Success(context.TODO())
	// ...
}

For single checks

You need:

• your check's UUID

package main

import (
	"context"
	"log"

	health "github.com/stnokott/healthchecks"
)

const _uuid = "12345678-abcd-1234-5678-999999999999"

func main() {
	// create a new check using a UUID
	check, err := health.NewUUID(_uuid)
	if err != nil {
		log.Fatalln(err)
	}

	// ping
	err = check.Success(context.TODO())
	// ...
}

Using self-hosted endpoint.

By default, https://hc-ping.com is used as endpoint.

Use the health.WithURL option to provide your own host.

// for a project
project, err := health.NewProject(pingKey, health.WithURL("https://example.com"))
// ...

// for a UUID-based check
check, err := health.NewUUID(uuid, health.WithURL("https://example.com"))
// ...
