GoHC

GoHC was made to be a simple and lightweight healthcheck system made with Go (Golang).

Some project features:

• Lightweight (< 5 MB RAM memory)
• Healthcheck list is a simples JSON file - yes, you dont need one database!
• Healthcheck can have 3 types (ping, range and manual)
  • Type "ping": will automatic change status by ping time
  • Type "range": will automatic change status by range values (can be float)
  • Type "manual": will change status using your sent status (work as a trigger)
• Have a warm time configuration, to only start run healthchecks after it (time is in milliseconds and is optional)
• Have a active timeout check for manual and range type (time is in milliseconds and is optional)
• Notification system based on plugins. Today GoHC implements its plugins:
  • CLI
  • Http Get
  • SendGrid
  • PushBullet
  • Slack
• You can reload your healthchecks and notifiers file from web and API - dont need restart the GoHC
• The web interface is nice - made with Bulma and Vue.js
• It is open-source, you can collaborate reporting bugs and upgrading it
• You can DONATE!

You can see healthcheck list sample file with notifications inside: extras/sample/healthchecks.json

Configuration

GoHC configuration is a simple JSON file called "config.json" or what name you want.

Example of configuration file:

{
    "server": {
		"host": "0.0.0.0:8080",
		"warmTime": 60000
	},
	"healthchecks": [
	
	],
	"notifiers": [
	
	]
}

Sample files

I have created a sample healthcheck file and a sample config file. Check it on extras/sample directory.

Starting

1. Execute: go get -u github.com/prsolucoes/gohc
2. Execute: cd $GOPATH/src/github.com/prsolucoes/gohc
3. Execute: make deps
4. Execute: make install
5. Create config file (config.json) based on some above example
6. Execute: gohc -f config.json
7. Open in your browser: http://localhost:8080

API

1. update a ping = http://localhost:8080/api/update/ping/[TOKEN]
2. update a range = http://localhost:8080/api/update/range/[TOKEN]/[VALUE-FLOAT-OR-INT]
3. update manual = http://localhost:8080/api/update/manual/[TOKEN]/[SUCCESS-WARNING-OR-ERROR]
4. reload healthchecks and notifiers file = http://localhost:8080/api/system/reload

Command line interface

You can use some make commands to control GoHC service, like start, stop and update from git repository.

1. make stop = it will kill current GoHC process
2. make update = it will update code from git and install on $GOPATH/bin directory
3. make deps = download all dependencies
4. make format = format all files (use it before make a pull-request)

So if you want start your server for example, you only need call "make start".

Alternative method to Build and Start project

1. go build
2. ./gohc -f config.json

Sugestion

Today, only some functions are implemented. If you need one, you can make a pull-request or send a message in Github Issue.
