# Built-in Health Check Endpoint
#
# \Rails also comes with a built-in health check endpoint that is reachable at
# the +/up+ path. This endpoint will return a 200 status code if the app has
# booted with no exceptions, and a 500 status code otherwise.
#
# In production, many applications are required to report their status upstream,
# whether it's to an uptime monitor that will page an engineer when things go
# wrong, or a load balancer or Kubernetes controller used to determine a pod's
# health. This health check is designed to be a one-size fits all that will work
# in many situations.
#
# While any newly generated \Rails applications will have the health check at
# +/up+, you can configure the path to be anything you'd like in your
# "config/routes.rb":
#
# Rails.application.routes.draw do
# get "healthz" => "rails/health#show", as: :rails_health_check
# end
#
# The health check will now be accessible via the +/healthz+ path.
#
# NOTE: This endpoint does not reflect the status of all of your application's
# dependencies, such as the database or redis cluster. Replace
# "rails/health#show" with your own controller action if you have
# application specific needs.
#
# Think carefully about what you want to check as it can lead to situations
# where your application is being restarted due to a third-party service going
# bad. Ideally, you should design your application to handle those outages
# gracefully.
