The docker image for the graph-node doesn't contain a health check. It would be useful to have a simple way of checking the health of a graph node in the docker image automatically.
Docker health checks are meant to provide a very simple check if the relevant application is running correctly. They should be quick and cheap so that they can execute frequently. In the graph-node case this would be a check if the graph node is up and running and not a check for a particular subgraph.
Proposal
As graph-node doesn't have a native health check, the fairly simple command to check if the node is up and running would be a GraphQL request:
query getVersion {
version {
version
}
}
should return the version of the node. To run this as a shell command, we could use:
curl -s http://localhost:8030/graphql -H 'Content-Type: application/json' -d '{"query": "query getVersion { version { version } }" }' -f -m 2
The command runs inside the docker container. However, the default docker image does not provide curl. So the proposal is two-fold:
Add a curl dependency to the docker image (i.e. apt-get -y install curl in the docker file)
Add a health check command to the docker file.
If there is interest in this, I'm happy to create a PR for it.
