Bidu House

This gem tries to make server monitoring easier and more reliable by adding an easly configurable report and making it avaliable in a controller

Getting started

  1. Add JsonParser to your Gemfile and bundle install:

    gem 'json_parser'
    
  2. Include in your health check controller passing the configuration to fetch your Documents with error and render the report

  class HealthCheckController < ApplicationController
    include Bidu::House

    status_report :failures, clazz: Document
    status_report :failures, clazz: Schedules, on: :schedules
    status_report :delays, clazz: Schedules, scope: :late, on: :schedules

    def status
      render_status
    end

    def late_status
      render_status(:schedules)
    end
  end
  1. Add a route to your controller
  scope path: 'health-check', controller: :health_check do
    get '/status' => :status
    get '/late-status' => :late_status
  end
  1. Set the correct options on your status report to achieve a perfect report

    • clazz: Class of the object that might contain error
    • scope: scope to be fetched when trying to find objects with error (default: :with_error)
    • external_key: column to be exposed as id for the objects with error
    • threshold: default report threshold (default: 0.02)
    • period: default search period (default: 1 day)
    • on: report bucket (default: :default)
    • Run the server and hit the health-check routes
 wget http://localhost:3000/health-check/status
 wget http://localhost:3000/health-check/late-status
  1. Customize your request for multiple reports wget http://localhost:3000/health-check/status?period=3.days&threshold=0.005 wget http://localhost:3000/health-check/late-status?period=1.hours&threshold=0.1
