Node module to run simple custom checks for your machine or it's connections.
npm install systemhealthvar Systemhealth = require("systemhealth");
var health = new Systemhealth({}, ["foo", "bar"], require("./mychecks"));Options
- interval : (
Numberoptional: default =60) Check interval in seconds - intervalVariance : (
Numberoptional: default =0) If you are using the same configuration for multiple servers you can define a variance that will add random seconds to the interval until this value. - failCount : (
Numberoptional: default =2) Count of failed checks per check until "die". E.g. Mark server as dead until 2 failed checks of the sql connection. - successCount : (
Numberoptional: default =1) Count of successful checks until the server resurrect. - failTimeout : (
Numberoptional: default =2000) Internal check timeout to wait for answers of check tasks
Start checking the health of the server and connections
Return
( Systemhealth ): The instance itself for chaining
Stop checking interval
Return
( Systemhealth ): The instance itself for chaining
Mark the server as dead and stop the heartbeat.
This is called until one check failed for option.failCount times.
Return
( Boolean ): Successful died. If the health is already dead it'll return false
Resurrect the server and restart the heartbeat.
This is called until all checks are successful for option.successCount times.
Return
( Boolean ): Successful died. If the health is already dead it'll return false
return the last check state.
Return
( Object ): An object with the state of all checks.
Format: { "my-check-foo-name": [ {state}, {data} ] }
{state}: Positive numbers represent the successful counts. Negative numbers represent the fail count.
{data}: Optional data or error infos
Emitted on a successful start after the frist check.
Emitted on a check stop.
Emitted if the failCount has exceeded. So the server/machine is defined as dead.
Emitted if the successCount has exceeded after the system was not dead. So the server/machine is defined as alive.
Emitted after a check
Arguments
- state : (
Object) See method.getState()for teh description of the return
A immediate event when a check fails.
Arguments
- check : (
String) The key of the failed check function - data : (
Any) Optional data or error infos
var CHECKS = {
"memcached": function(){
var Memcached = require( 'memcached' );
var _client = new Memcached();
return function( cb ){
_client.version( function( err, version ){
if( err ){
cb( null, false, err ); // do not return a regular error. Just return false as second arg and optional info like the error object
}
cb( null, true, { _v: version } ); // just return true and optional information, that will be logged to redis metics
});
}
},
"sql": function(){
var _client = require( './my-sql-client42' );
return function( cb ){
_client.query( "SELECT 5", function( err, return ){
if( err ){
cb( null, false, err ); // do not return a regular error. Just return false as second arg and optional info like the error object
}
cb( null, true );
});
}
}
}
var Systemhealth = require( "systemhealth" );
var health = new Systemhealth( { identifier: "my-server-name" }, [ "memcached", "sql" ], CHECKS );If the service is alive this property will be true
Return
( Boolean ): If it's alive
The tests are based on the mocha.js framework with should.js as assertaion lib. To start the test just call
npm test
or
grunt test
If you want to be more precice use the mocha cli
mocha -R nyan -t 1337 test/main.js
If you want to test your module against multiple node versions you can use the docker tests.
Preparation
# make sure you installed all dependencies
npm install
# build the files
grunt buildRun
To run the tests through the defined versions run the following command:
dockertests/run.sh
