🌊 Health Check API#

The Health Check API provides a simple mechanism to verify that the DMB container and core services are operational.

🔍 Endpoint#

GET /health#

Returns a JSON response indicating whether the container is healthy.

Response#

{
  "status": "healthy"
}

If the check fails, the status will be "unhealthy" and include diagnostic output.

📊 Use Case#

  • Used by orchestrators or monitoring tools to confirm container availability.
  • Can be used to gate traffic in load balancers or uptime monitoring dashboards.

✨ Implementation#

This route executes a background health check script in the container: 

/healthcheck.py
It runs within the same virtual environment as DMB and ensures all critical files, paths, and subprocesses are functional.
