VersionMonitorNetCore 1.0.0

Anexia Monitoring

Package to monitor dependency and framework versions for .NET Core Frameworks. It can be also used to check if the website is alive and working correctly.

Installation and configuration

Install the package via NuGet: "VersionMonitorNetCore"

Set Access Token and register monitoring routes before adding the default routes in Startup.cs:

	...        
    public void Configure(IApplicationBuilder app, IHostingEnvironment env, ILoggerFactory loggerFactory)
    {
        Anexia.Monitoring.VersionMonitor.SetAccessToken("custom_access_token");
        Anexia.Monitoring.VersionMonitor.RegisterServiceStateMonitor(app, () => true);
        Anexia.Monitoring.VersionMonitor.RegisterModulesInfoMonitor(app);
        ...
    }
	...

Usage

The package registers some custom REST endpoints which can be used for monitoring. Make sure that the custom_access_token is defined, since this is used for authorization.
