Much like my beater car from the 80's, Aries is a beater Dropwizard application which can be used to simulate healthcheck failures, slow response times, and more for testing purposes

Build & Run

1. Download and install maven
2. mvn clean install
3. docker-compose build
4. docker-compose up

API

Application - Port 8080

GET /status?minResponseDelayMillis=x&maxResponseDelayMillis=y

Request status with immediate response

curl -v "localhost:8080/status"

{"healthy":true,"callCount":1,"responseDelayMillis":0}

Request status with a delay between 2 and 5 seconds

curl "localhost:8080/status?minResponseDelayMillis=2000&maxResponseDelayMillis=5000"

{"healthy":true,"callCount":1,"responseDelayMillis":3862}

POST /status

Simulate healthcheck failure

curl -X POST -d '{"healthy":false}' -H "Content-Type: application/json" localhost:8080/status;

{"healthy":false,"callCount":0,"responseDelayMillis":0}

Resume healthcheck success

curl -X POST -d '{"healthy":true}' -H "Content-Type: application/json" localhost:8080/status;

{"healthy":true,"callCount":0,"responseDelayMillis":0}

Admin - Port 8081

GET /healthcheck - Healthcheck endpoint. Returns 200 on success, 500 on failure

curl "localhost:8081/healthcheck"

{"countingHealthcheck":{"healthy":true,"message":"Healthy. Count: 1"},"deadlocks":{"healthy":true}}
