Log verbose results of the health check

David Thielen 3,186

Hi all;

Is there a way, when my app first starts up, just before calling app.Run() in Program.cs - to write to ILogger verbose results of all the health checks? That way I have in the log at startup a listing of the health of all my dependencies.

thanks - dave

We can't do that. Health checks are exposed by an app as HTTP endpoints, so we have to get the health check result after calling the app.Run() and via the related Http endpoints.

@Jim Olewis is there a way to get the details from the endpoint? Or is the endpoint, when it's all working right, just the word healthy?

I don't like trusting a black box that basically says, don't worry, it's all good.
