Health

Health is a healthchecking sidecar

It exposes /health as a http endpoint and calls the rpc endpoint Debug.Health

Every go-micro service exposes Debug.Health. We can use this for liveness checks.

Usage

Install

go get github.com/micro/micro/cmd/health

or

docker pull microhq/health

Run

Run the healthchecker specifying the service name and address to check

health --server_name=greeter --server_address=localhost:9091

Call

Call the healthchecker on localhost:8080

curl http://localhost:8080/health

Response will be 200 OK

OK
