Express middleware. Exposes a common API to inform about its internal status and health.
Let your express applications expose a simple API to inform about its internal status and health to both operators and to other applications.
This module was created as an express middleware to simplify its usage. Add a single line to your express application and you are done.
npm install express-ping --save
)var health = require('express-ping');
var express = require('express');
var app = express();
...
app.use(health.ping()); // this is the only addition
app.use(app.router);
...
app.listen(3000);
Once you launch your express application, it will add a new /ping endpoint to check the app status. If you GET http://localhost:3000/ping you will receive the following information:

You don't need to configure anything. By default, a /ping
endpoint will be added to your routes, but you can pass the ping endpoint to the middeware simply doing:
app.use(health.ping('/custompath'));
To provide authorized access, use a middleware (i.e. connect-basic-auth) before express-ping. Example:
app.get('/ping', basicAuth('username', 'password'));
app.use(health.ping('/ping'));
