Healthchecks.io Community Collection

coverage black integration sanity unit

This Ansible collection contains modules for assisting in the automation of the Healthchecks.io monitoring service. To learn more about this service, please read https://healthchecks.io/about/.

From their site:

Healthchecks.io is an online service for monitoring regularly running tasks such as cron jobs. It uses the Dead man's switch technique: the monitored system must "check in" with Healthchecks.io at regular, configurable time intervals. When Healthchecks.io detects a missed check-in, it sends out alerts.

The service documentation is located at https://healthchecks.io/docs/ and the API documentation is located at https://healthchecks.io/docs/api/. This Ansible module strives for API parity.
