Repository scope
GitHub describes it as 🚀 Realtime Monitoring solution for Node.js/Express.js apps, inspired by status.github.com, sponsored by https://dynobase.dev. The repository metadata lists JavaScript as its primary language. The metadata lists the MIT license. The README describes the project this way: Simple, self-hosted module based on Socket.io and Chart.js to report realtime server metrics for Express-based node servers.
Installation & setup
The README section "Installation & setup" states: 1. Run npm install express-status-monitor --save 2. Before any other middleware or router add following line: app.use(require('express-status-monitor')()); 3. Run server and go to /status
Health Checks
The README section "Health Checks" states: You can add a series of health checks to the configuration that will appear below the other stats. The health check will be considered successful if the endpoint returns a 200 status code.
Securing endpoint
The README section "Securing endpoint" states: The HTML page handler is exposed as a pageRoute property on the main middleware function. So the middleware is mounted to intercept all requests while the HTML page handler will be authenticated.
Editorial conclusion
The repository README is the source for this review. It does not replace a local installation or an independent test.
