HI Tom,

i have a client dependency health checker - which you can use as example code

https://github.com/KevinJump/Umbraco-ClientDependencyHealthChecker

the main health check element is here : https://github.com/KevinJump/Umbraco-ClientDependencyHealthChecker/blob/master/Jumoo.CdfHealthChecker/ClientDependencyHealthChecker.cs

the code in the documentation is also quite usefull for getting started : https://our.umbraco.org/Documentation/Extending/Healthcheck/

Thank You very much for sharing Kevin.
Have a great day. Tom

Kevin:

Is there C# code that shows me how to invoke the default Health Checks and send back the results? If I can get my hands on this, then I can use Umbraco to schedule running the health checks?

Thanks

Tom

Hi

in Umbraco 7.6 there is a new config HealthChecks.config this controls how scheduled health checks are run (so it's not configured with the standard schedule stuff in UmbracoSettings.Config).

https://our.umbraco.org/Documentation/Reference/Config/HealthChecks/

Wow! If I understand the docs, I can enable/disable health checks and if I configure properly, it will send me an email SOMETHING for each health check I enable right?

Can you tell me what Umbraco sends or is something like "Health Check XYZ" Pass or Fail and why it failed?

Tom

Yeah - It depends on the Summary settings you put in the config:

Each notification method can separately be enabled or disabled. The attribute verbosity can be set to Summary or Detailed to get more or less information in the alerts, and the failureOnly can be set to true or false if you'd prefer to get notifications only if at least one potential problem is detected.

Many thanks Kevin.

I do like the schedule idea - I saw this at CodeGarden this year. At the moment I have a custom healthcheck endpoint (hit by my load balancer every few seconds) which checks data integrity and local indexes are happy.
