:ambulance: Express middleware that exposes the health state.
This middleware can be used in any express application to provide a simple health check endpoint.
The default endpoint is "_health" but you can provide a different endpoint name if you want.
The endpoint returns a static json response:
{
"status": "OK"
}
$ npm install healthcheck-ping --save
var createHealthcheckMiddleware = require('healthcheck-ping');
var server = express();
server.use(createHealthcheckMiddleware()); // mounted as /_health
If you want the healthcheck to be available on a custom endpoint you can do so:
server.use(createHealthcheckMiddleware('foobar'));
