laffra / happyweb Goto Github PK

I'm playing around with happyweb and I am attracted to it's simplicity. However, I'm trying to wrap my head around the logic used to determine the status.

Here is happyweb running 'natively' on OSX - fully current Big Sure 11.6

Here is happyweb running on a Linux VM under virtual box on the same OSX machine - so we have a layer of virtualization, but still reasonable performance.

It is concerning that I have so much red in general - I'm only on 75/10 cable (down/up) .. but as a user the web feels pretty good.

It appears that the color of the tile is dependent on the 'load time' of the page.

It is concerning that in both examples - I see FAILED. This would indicate a 10second time-out to fetch the page? Or is the timeout parameter busted and not really 10 seconds?

From OSX native

% time curl https://www.netflix.com/ca
curl https://www.netflix.com/ca  0.02s user 0.03s system 9% cpu 0.483 total

From the virtual linux on OSX

$ time curl https://www.netflix.com/ca

real    0m0.372s
user    0m0.014s
sys     0m0.005s

I like the simplicity of happyweb, but I'm thinking that for my situation (and probably I'm not way out there in terms of network performance) I need the ability to easily specify the scale used to determine badness. Otherwise I'm left with a big page of red.

It might be nice to allow integration with Prometheus. This might help inform you about the happyweb status over time vs. just the 'right now' status.

I'd be happy to sketch out a PR if there is interest.
