Status page for your laravel application

How do you tell if your laravel application is up and running or if there's a downtime? StatusPage helps you communicate realtime status of your application.

Installation

You can install the package via composer:

composer require eazybright/status-page

You can publish the public assets with:

php artisan vendor:publish --tag="status-page-assets"

The asset files will be available in public/vendor/status-page directory

You can publish the config file with:

php artisan vendor:publish --tag="status-page-config"

This is the contents of the published config file:

return [
    /**
     * Specify the location of the logo
    */
    'logo' => 'vendor/status-page/img/STATUSPAGE.png',
];

Optionally, you can publish the views using

php artisan vendor:publish --tag="status-page-views"

Usage

Before the you can view the status page, some actions needs to be performed.

1. Copy the bash script to root folder, health-check.sh file will be generated.

php artisan status-page:copy-script

2. Crawl the routes in the application. This creates urls.cfg file in the public folder. This is where the available urls will be saved to.

php artisan status-page:generate-route

Optionally, you can include your urls to urls.cfg file.

3. Create the status page view.

php artisan status-page:create

Your view is available at localhost:8000/status-page

4. To automate step 3, you can schedule the artisan command php artisan status-page:create to run independently inside app\Console\kernel.php file.

    // ...

    /**
     * Define the application's command schedule.
     *
     * @param Schedule $schedule
     * @return void
     */
    protected function schedule(Schedule $schedule)
    {
        // ...

        $schedule->command('status-page:create')->hourly();
    }

How does it work?

The script (health-check.sh) runs curl on every url in your config (urls.cfg) and appends the result of that run to a log file (public/vendor/status-page/logs). This log is then pulled dynamically from status.blade.php file and displayed in a easily consumable fashion.

Testing
