IsItWorking

https://IsItWorking.info provides a simple way for your code to check in and confirm that it is running!

This gem provides a simple wrapper for checking in, and timing code.

It's perfect for making sure that background tasks are running correctly, and for checking that they're not taking too long as your app grows.

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem 'is_it_working_info'

And then execute:

$ bundle

Or install it yourself as:

$ gem install is_it_working_info

Log in to Is https://IsItWorking.info and create a 'Checkin'.

Click on the 'Use' button to get your CHECKIN_IDENTIFIER

Send a simple checkin with

IsItWorkingInfo::Checkin.ping(key:"CHECKIN_IDENTIFIER")

Send more info with optional methods:

IsItWorkingInfo::Checkin.ping(key:"CHECKIN_IDENTIFIER",message:"Your Info",status:0,time:123, boundary:1000)

Time your code with:

IsItWorkingInfo::Checkin.time(key:"CHECKIN_IDENTIFIER",message:"Is It Slow?", boundary:1000) do

	#Your Code Here

end

If your code takes longer than 1000 milliseconds to run, then that will trigger an error and IsItWorking will let you know.

See the full api details at https://isitworking.info/docs/checkin_api

You probably don't want your test/development code to be checking in.

You can disable the actual checkins with:

IsItWorkingInfo.configure do |config|
	config.testing = true
end

If testing is true, then IsItWorkingInfo will put the url that it would have called, but won't actually do the checkin.

in Rails, you can disable for testing and development by adding an initialiser

/config/initializers/is_it_working_info.rb

IsItWorkingInfo.configure do |config|
	config.testing = Rails.env.test? || Rails.env.development?
end
