Healthcheck for the container

[SchoolGuy]

Desired Behavior

It would be helpful to have a health-check available for the image to be able to tell if the container is responsive.

Current Behavior

Currently the fact that the container is running is indicating that openLDAP is working, this is however an assumption that is not true in all cases.

Alternatives Considered

None

Context

• Docker: https://docs.docker.com/engine/reference/builder/#healthcheck
• K8s: https://kubernetes.io/docs/tasks/configure-pod-container/configure-liveness-readiness-startup-probes/

Would also like to see this.

Would be nice. For now I just do:

    healthcheck:
      test: ["CMD", "cat", "/run/slapd/slapd.pid"]
      interval: 15s
      timeout: 30s
      retries: 5
      start_period: 5s

Work well enough. Of course, start_period is busted in moby/moby 25.x but it'll be fast one day :)
