Healthcheck not usable since replacement of IMMICH_PORT and IMMICH_HOST

[loeffelpan]

I would like to add a healthcheck to my container. Something similar has been tried in #485, but there is no more activity

The desired way to do that is immich-healthcheck inside the container. This script is maintained by the immich team and already part of your image. It does use IMMICH_PORT (defaults to 2283) and IMMICH_HOST (defaults to localhost) if set. Unfortunately it's not working due to a lack of IMMICH_PORT as default doesn't match your image. IMMICH_PORT/HOST have been replaced by SERVER_PORT/HOST recently.

Maybe the easiest approach would be to set IMMICH_PORT and IMMICH_HOST as a copy of SERVER_PORT and SERVER_HOST if given?

a healthcheck can be achieved with (if using docker compose)

    healthcheck:
      test: ["CMD", "curl", "-f", "http://localhost:8080/ping"]
      interval: 30s
      timeout: 5s
      retries: 3
      start_period: 10s

I'm using that already, but this is not precise. The original healthcheck from immich does a little bit more and checks the returncode AND the content of the response. See here.

Is there any problem adding those (original) environment variables to make healthcheck work as intended?
