Is It Up?

A Ruby gem that adds a simple endpoint to see if your application "is up". The endpoint is handled via Rack middleware. A Railtie is provided for simple integration with Ruby on Rails apps.

Installation

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem 'is_it_up'

And then execute:

$ bundle

Or install it yourself as:

$ gem install is_it_up

Usage

IsItUp provides one monitoring URI that returns a plain text response:

% curl your-domain/is_it_up
It is up.
