API offering health metrics for the Django Server Guardian app.

Installation and Usage

To get the latest stable release from PyPi

pip install django-server-guardian-api

To get the latest commit from GitHub

pip install -e git+git://github.com/bitmazk/django-server-guardian-api.git#egg=server_guardian_api

Add server_guardian_api to your INSTALLED_APPS

INSTALLED_APPS = (
    ...,
    'server_guardian_api',
)

Add the server_guardian_api URLs to your urls.py

urlpatterns = [
    url(r'^server-guardian-api/', include('server_guardian_api.urls')),
]

As a simple auth method add the security token as described in the README of the Django Server Guardian to your settings as SERVER_GUARDIAN_SECURITY_TOKEN

SERVER_GUARDIAN_SECURITY_TOKEN = 'asd0hb42t92-example-token-39gh1g3-91hfosj325'

Add the SERVER_GUARDIAN_PROCESSORS setting where you’re endpoint metrics are defined.

SERVER_GUARDIAN_PROCESSORS = (
    'server_guardian_api.endpoints.mailer_mail',
    'myapp.mymodule.myfunction',
)

The functions defined in this setting must return a dictionary in the following format

{
    'status': 'OK', # must be one of: "OK", "WARNING", "DANGER"
    'info': 'additional text describing the status. e.g. type of error',
}

That mean, your API endpoint will, if all is correct, return something like this

[
    {
        'label': 'mail_queue',
        'status': 'OK',
        'info': "No deferred email queued. That's great!",
    },
    {
        'label': 'other_metric',
        ...
    },
]
