TCP Health probe

We provide a TCP health probe endpoint that allows a runtime to periodically check the liveness/readiness of the host based on the .NET Core health checks.

Installation#

This features requires to install our NuGet package:

PM > Install-Package Arcus.Messaging.Health -Version 0.1.0

Usage#

To include the TCP endpoint, add the following line of code in the Startup.ConfigureServices method:

using Microsoft.Extensions.DependencyInjection;using Microsoft.Extensions.Diagnostics.HealthChecks;
public class Startup{    public void ConfigureServices(IServiceCollection services)    {        // Add TCP health probe without extra health checks.        services.AddTcpHealthProbes("MyConfigurationKeyToTcpHealthPort");
        // Or, add your extra health checks in a configuration delegate.        services.AddTcpHealthProbes(            "MyConfigurationKeyToTcpHealthPort",            configureHealthChecks: healthBuilder =>             {                healthBuilder.AddCheck("Example", () => HealthCheckResult.Healthy("Example is OK!"), tags: new[] { "example" })            });    }}

Configuration#

The TCP probe allows several additional configuration options.

using Microsoft.Extensions.DependencyInjection;
public class Startup{    public void ConfigureServices(IServiceCollection services)    {        // Add TCP health probe with or without extra health checks.        services.AddTcpHealthProbes(            "MyConfigurationKeyToTcpHealthPort",            configureTcpListenerOptions: options =>            {                // Configure the configuration key on which the health report is exposed.                options.TcpPortConfigurationKey = "MyConfigurationKey";
                // Configure how the health report should be serialized.                options.HealthReportSerializer = new MyHealthReportSerializer();            });    }}
using Arcus.Messaging.Health;using Microsoft.Extensions.Diagnostics.HealthChecks;
public class MyHealthReportSerializer : IHealthReportSerializer{    public byte[] Serialize(HealthReport healthReport)    {        return Array.Empty<byte>();    }}
