| # Prober |
| |
| Prober monitors the uptime of our servers and pumps the results of those probes |
| into Prometheus. |
| |
| ## Design |
| Prober periodically polls a set of URLs and uses an appropriate `ResponseTester` function to |
| make sure the URL is serving the correct response or lack of response. |
| |
| ## Prober Files |
| |
| Application specific probers should be placed in the applications top level |
| directory in a file called 'probersk.json'. The `build_probersk_json` |
| command-line application will incorporate all such files into a single prober |
| config file that is uploaded to the server. This is run automatically when the container |
| image is built. |
