Poetic Injustice

This is a simple web server with a chaotic twist. In normal operation, it prints out a line of poetry by a given poet from a given poem (/). But the health check (/healthz) randomly fails (approx. 1% of the time).

I use this for simple chaos testing in a Kubernetes cluster, including this image in testing configurations for different resource types.

Environment Variables:

• POEM: Title of a poem
• POET: Name of a poet
• QUOTE: Line of poetry
