Benoit Tellier created JAMES-3607:
-------------------------------------
Summary: Healthcheck for Email reception
Key: JAMES-3607
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/JAMES-3607
Project: James Server
Issue Type: New Feature
Components: guice, rabbitmq
Affects Versions: master
Reporter: Benoit Tellier
Fix For: 3.7.0
h3. Why?
As described in JAMES-3605, RabbitMQ consumers can end up being stuck.
In such a scenario we are not able to detect the failure and end up relying on
cunsumer reports to restart James.
We would like to have a health-check, allowing automatic testing about mail
reception. (Both periodical logs and also a HTTP endpoint for integration with
a monitoring system)...
So a healthcheck no longer for a technical component but for a feature.
h3. How?
In `healthcheck.properties` on could configure a user to run reception checks:
{code:java}
[email protected]
{code}
If configured, the healthcheck would then send a mail to the user, await the
email via the eventbus, then retrieve its content.
To be placed in a new `server/container/feature-checks` maven project.
h3. Definition of done
- Given a paused RabbitMQ the check fails for the distributed server
- Given a working James the check passes.
h3. Disclaimer
The idea had been first expressed by [~matthieu] years ago...
