typesense-healthcheck

A lightweight Go service that reports the aggregated health status of a Typesense cluster and exposes both a JSON-based API and a built-in web UI for visualizing node status in real time.

Features

Cluster readiness & liveness:

• /livez returns a simple 200 OK for basic liveness probes.
• /readyz returns a detailed JSON report of cluster's and each node’s health, e.g. :

{
    "cluster_status": "OK",
    "cluster_health": true,

Web UI

Interactive single-page Vue.js + Vuetify application inspired (sic!) by podinfo landing page.

• Auto-refresh every 3 seconds.
• Color-coded status indicators per node.

Important

Although this lightweight server is designed to run as a sidecar in the same Pod as your Typesense nodes deployed by TyKO, you can monitor any Typesense Cluster as long as you provide a reachable path using TYPESENSE_NODES variable (e.g. by running this service as a docker container and mounting your nodes list file in it)
