Simple check for HTTP services.

Pings a configured uri on the host. The check passes if the response code is in the 2xx range.

classmethod validate_dependencies()[source]¶

This check uses stdlib modules so dependencies are always present.

classmethod validate_check_config(config)[source]¶

Validates the http check config. The “uri” key is required.

apply_check_config(config)[source]¶

Takes a validated config dictionary and sets the uri, use_https and method attributes based on the config’s contents.

perform()[source]¶

Performs a simple HTTP request against the configured url and returns true if the response has a 2xx code.

The url can be configured to use https via the “https” boolean flag in the config, as well as a custom HTTP method via the “method” key.

The default is to not use https and the GET method.
