Pingup

Usage

var pingup = require('pingup');
app.get('/monitoring', pingup.status(options));

Options

Add monitoring for your Redis or MongoDB servers.

Redis

Pass a redis client to pingup.status()

var redis = require('redis');
var redisClient = redis.createClient(REDIS_URL);
app.get('/monitoring', pingup.status({redis: redisClient}));

MongoDB

Pass a mongo client to pingup.status()

var mongodb = require('mongodb');
mongodb.MongoClient.connect(MONGO_URL, function(err, mongoClient) {
  if (err) {
    return; // Do something with err
  }
  app.get('/monitoring', pingup.status({mongo: mongoClient}));
});

Multi-monitoring

You can also pass many clients of the same type, by passing an array instead of a single client.

var redis = require('redis');
var redisClient1 = redis.createClient(REDIS_URL_1);
var redisClient2 = redis.createClient(REDIS_URL_2);
app.get('/monitoring', pingup.status({
  redis: [
    redisClient1,
    redisClient2
  ]
}));

You can pass both redis and mongo to pingup.status(), of course.

var redis = require('redis');
var redisClient1 = redis.createClient(REDIS_URL_1);
var redisClient2 = redis.createClient(REDIS_URL_2);

var mongodb = require('mongodb');
mongodb.MongoClient.connect(MONGO_URL, function(err, mongoClient) {
  if (err) {
    return; // Do something with err
  }

  app.get('/monitoring', pingup.status({
    redis: [
      redisClient1,
      redisClient2
    ],
    mongo: mongoClient
  }));
});

Timeout

Pass timeout: seconds to pingup.status(). Default is 30 seconds.

pingup.status({timeout: 5}); // set a 5 seconds timeout for each service

Try it

$ curl http://localhost:3000/pingup
  {
    "web": {
      "up": true
    },
    "redis.0": {
      "up": true
    },
    "redis.1": {
      "up": true
    },
    "mongo": {
      "up": true
    }
  }
