pingr

On request, this http server will get a list of assets from collins, send http requests configured by the -t flag and return HTTP 500 with a plain text error message in case any request failed.

It takes the path as collins attribute filter. A request to /secondary_role;foobar will send requests to all assets with the role foobar.

By setting the -auth.pass flag, it will require HTTP basic auth.

Usage

Usage of ./pingr:
  -=5s: connect timeout for tests
  -auth.pass="": password for basic auth
  -auth.user="ping": user for basic auth
  -listen="0.0.0.0:8000": adress to listen on
  -pass="admin:first": collins password
  -status="Allocated": only assets with this status
  -timeout=5s: rw timeout for tests
  -url="http://localhost:9000/api": collins api url
  -user="blake": collins username

After starting pingr, you can check collins assets based on this path schema:

/pool/test/port/asset type[/optional/path/to/use/for/http/test][?attributeA=valueA&attributeB=valueB...]

This will find all assets for given asset type and optional attributes, get their address(es) from pool and use test on port with optional path.

Tests

Currently there are two tests implemented:

• http: Sends an http request, status code < 200 or > 400 are considered errors
• tcp: Connects to port, connection failures are considered errors. Path is ignored.

Example

This request will check if ssh is reachable on int addresses of all server_node assets with primary role web and secondary role default:

/int/tcp/22/server_node?primary_role=web&secondary_role=default

This would check the assets 'dmz' adresses via http on port 80 with path foo/bar instead:

/dmz/tcp/80/server_node/foo/bar?primary_role=web&secondary_role=default
