Health Indicators for micronaut.http.services.*

[alexsimpson440dev]

Potentially a question or an idea, but when setting up and testing a service in micronaut under the configuration:

micronaut:
  http:
    services:
      foo:
        url: some-url
        health-check: true
        health-check-interval: 15s
        health-check-uri: /health

I didn't really notice any difference when our health endpoint would return an error such as a 404, 401, 500, etc. After looking into Micronauts code and documentation I noticed that this health seems to only remove a single URL from the load balancer if an endpoint returns as unhealthy.

Potentially I am missing a way to tie this to a health indicator through configuration, but if not I think that would be a nice feature.

So a potential response from the health aggregation endpoint would be:

Maybe when all urls of a given service are down (foo in this example):
