Use Case

Your web service is located at https://api.example.com/my-service

It exposes a route /_health that should return a 200 - OK response when everything is fine.

How To

Create the following Unit resource:

---
apiVersion: kubirds.com/v1
kind: Unit
metadata:
  name: check-my-service-access
  namespace: default
  labels:
    app: my-service
spec:
  schedule: every 5 minutes
  image:
    name: curlimages/curl:latest
    command: "curl -L -v $HOST"
    pullPolicy: Always
  env:
    - name: HOST
      value: https://api.example.com/my-service/_health

The schedule property indicates how often Kubirds should run the task.

The image property indicates which Docker image to use to run the task.

The env property populates the container environment.
