With `/health`, it is possible to override the overall status reported.
This change adds the same functionality to `/ready`. This allows
incident responders to take an unhealthy pod out of a service without
killing it—giving them time to gather meaningful forensic data from the
pod. The new contract is:
Force not ready:
GET /ready?force=true&ready=false
Force ready:
GET /ready?force=true&ready=true
Disable override:
GET /ready?force=false
* feat(api/health): Add a standardized health and ready check system
Build a system that can be used for both ready and health checking.
It can be used directly as a http.Handler and can be given a passthrough handler,
allowing it to operate as middleware.
