Health is a library used for creating a very simple health endpoint.
While implementing a health endpoint is very simple, I've grown tired of implementing
it over and over again.
## Installation
```
go get -u github.com/TwiN/health
```
## Usage
To retrieve the handler, you must use `health.Handler()` and are expected to pass it to the router like so:
```go
router := http.NewServeMux()
router.Handle("/health", health.Handler())
server := &http.Server{
Addr: ":8080",
Handler: router,
}
```
By default, the handler will return `UP` when the status is down, and `DOWN` when the status is down.
If you prefer using JSON, however, you may initialize the health handler like so:
```go
router.Handle("/health", health.Handler().WithJSON(true))
```
The above will cause the response body to become `{"status":"UP"}` and `{"status":"DOWN"}` for both status respectively.
To change the health of the application, you can use `health.SetStatus(<status>)` where `<status>` is one `health.Up`
or `health.Down`:
```go
health.SetStatus(health.Up)
health.SetStatus(health.Down)
```
### Complete example
```go
package main
import (
"net/http"
"time"
"github.com/TwiN/health"
)
func main() {
router := http.NewServeMux()
router.Handle("/health", health.Handler())
server := &http.Server{
Addr: "0.0.0.0:8080",
Handler: router,
ReadTimeout: 15 * time.Second,
WriteTimeout: 15 * time.Second,
IdleTimeout: 15 * time.Second,
}
server.ListenAndServe()
}
```
