indeedeng / status Goto Github PK

Hi there! I'm making CORS requests from one webapp that is using status to another webapp that exposes an ad-hoc JSON api that also uses status, and I'd like my healthcheck to reflect this dependency. Is the best way to do this to use an http client to contact the dependencies healthcheck, parse the json and check its status? Is there any existing subclass of PingableDependency or PingMethod that might make this easier? I see that status-web has a Jackson serializer; is there an equivalent deserializer?

Currently the DependencyPinger sends the delegate wrapped dependency to the StatusUpdateDelegate. We should instead send ourselves so that any state inside the DependencyPinger itself can be accessed if needed. Plus this seems a little cleaner than sharing the delegated dependency.

Our projects are using this library and we want to upgrade this library to higher version. But I can't find the compatible java version in file build.gradle or README.md. Please add the compatible java version in build.gradle file or README.md

Jackson databind version 2.9.10 has a few CVEs related to polymorphic deserialization, and while there are micro-patches up to 2.9.10.8, the easiest way to resolve all known CVEs is to move to 2.10.

The latest and last 2.10 release for jackson-databind is 2.10.5.1. I will create a PR to update dependency.

The following explanation potentially can be added to README (I captured the idea in such way while analyzed how system status evaluation actually works):

Dependency check status is converted to a efficient dependency check status based on Urgency of the correspondent dependency:

System status = min(efficient dependency check status)

The default branch name for new repositories created on GitHub is now main. See github guidance

To better inform followers on how to contribute to this library, lets add a CONTRIBUTING.md

If you ever want to deploy a new dependency that may be noisy then it is very difficult to do this in a safe way that we can also monitor. I propose that we add an additional Urgency that downgrades the check to OK always. This would mean that the check would never effect the overall health of the application, but would still cause the listeners on the individual dependencies to log state changes.

Currently status is using org.codehaus.jackson, since this is old and deprecated http://jackson.codehaus.org/ says https://github.com/FasterXML/jackson which says https://github.com/FasterXML/jackson-databind where the maven import code says to use 'com.fasterxml.jackson.core'

First paragraph of "Healthchecks" section ends abruptly:

Healthchecks are pages within applications that take all the dependencies and dump their statuses in a JSON format They can help shed light into services that are currently unavailable or unhealthy. This feature is only available through the status-web package, but sim

README should give a good introduction. Docs on indeedeng.github.io should have a Getting Started guide and more Usage details.

Current version has a known vulnerability.

Typing indeed.com into address bar in The Netherlands will correctly direct you to indeed.nl. However at the bottom it then state "Voor vacatures in Nederland gaat u naar Indeed Nederland" which means: For jobs in The Netherlands go to Indeed Netherlands.
It should say: For jobs in the USA go to indeed.com (in the whatever local language).

Notes:

1. This is a text error only as when you click on the link it WILL send you correctly to indeed.com(USA).
2. Had the same issue logging in from Spain and Germany.
