Installation

$ composer require oat-sa/lib-health-check

Usage

This library provides a HealthChecker object in charge to aggregate and execute implementations of the CheckerInterface.

On the HealthChecker class performChecks() method execution, a CheckerResultCollection instance is returned, aggregating all checkers results information.

For example, you need first to create CheckerInterface implementations as follows:

<?php declare(strict_types=1); use OAT\Library\HealthCheck\Checker\CheckerInterface; use OAT\Library\HealthCheck\Result\CheckerResult; class MySuccessChecker implements CheckerInterface { public function getIdentifier() : string { return 'MySuccessChecker'; } public function check() : CheckerResult { return new CheckerResult(true, 'my success message'); } } class MyFailureChecker implements CheckerInterface { public function getIdentifier() : string { return 'MyFailureChecker'; } public function check() : CheckerResult { return new CheckerResult(false, 'my failure message'); } }

Then register the checkers into the HealthChecker, and perform checks as following:

<?php declare(strict_types=1); use OAT\Library\HealthCheck\HealthChecker; $healthChecker = new HealthChecker(); $results = $healthChecker ->registerChecker(new MySuccessChecker()) ->registerChecker(new MyFailureChecker()) ->performChecks(); $results->hasErrors(); // true foreach ($results as $result) { echo $result->getMessage(); }

Notes:

• you can provide to the HealthChecker (as 2nd constructor parameter) a LoggerInterface instance to customise its logging behaviour.
• by default, the NullLogger will be used.
• it is recommended to catch only known exceptions in order to form an appropriate result message. The unknown exceptions and errors should be bubbled up to the HealthCheker level.

Tests
