# Health Checks

Monitor stream and subscription health with ASP.NET Core health checks.

## Overview

Health checks provide visibility into system health:
- **Stream Health** - Detect unhealthy event streams
- **Consumer Health** - Monitor consumer lag and stalls
- **Subscription Health** - Track subscription status
- **ASP.NET Core Integration** - Built-in health check support

**Key Features:**

- ✅ **Stream Monitoring** - Check stream availability and status
- ✅ **Consumer Lag Detection** - Identify lagging consumers
- ✅ **Stall Detection** - Detect consumers with no progress
- ✅ **Configurable Thresholds** - Define degraded/unhealthy limits
- ✅ **Health Check UI** - Visual dashboard support
- ✅ **Kubernetes Ready** - /health endpoint for liveness/readiness probes

## Quick Start

```csharp
using Svrnty.CQRS.Events;
using Svrnty.CQRS.Events.Monitoring;

var builder = WebApplication.CreateBuilder(args);

// Register health checks
builder.Services.AddStreamHealthChecks(options =>
{
    options.DegradedConsumerLagThreshold = 1000;      // Warning at 1000 events
    options.UnhealthyConsumerLagThreshold = 10000;    // Error at 10000 events
    options.DegradedStalledThreshold = TimeSpan.FromMinutes(5);   // Warning after 5 min
    options.UnhealthyStalledThreshold = TimeSpan.FromMinutes(15); // Error after 15 min
});

// Add to ASP.NET Core health checks
builder.Services.AddHealthChecks()
    .AddCheck<StreamHealthCheck>("event-streams")
    .AddCheck<ConsumerHealthCheck>("consumers");

var app = builder.Build();

// Map health check endpoint
app.MapHealthChecks("/health");

app.Run();
```

## Health Check Components

### Stream Health Check

Monitor overall stream health:

```csharp
public class StreamHealthCheck : IHealthCheck
{
    private readonly IStreamHealthService _healthService;

    public async Task<HealthCheckResult> CheckHealthAsync(
        HealthCheckContext context,
        CancellationToken ct = default)
    {
        var result = await _healthService.CheckAllStreamsAsync(ct);

        if (result.UnhealthyCount > 0)
        {
            return HealthCheckResult.Unhealthy(
                $"{result.UnhealthyCount} unhealthy streams",
                data: new Dictionary<string, object>
                {
                    ["healthy"] = result.HealthyCount,
                    ["degraded"] = result.DegradedCount,
                    ["unhealthy"] = result.UnhealthyCount
                });
        }

        if (result.DegradedCount > 0)
        {
            return HealthCheckResult.Degraded(
                $"{result.DegradedCount} degraded streams",
                data: new Dictionary<string, object>
                {
                    ["healthy"] = result.HealthyCount,
                    ["degraded"] = result.DegradedCount
                });
        }

        return HealthCheckResult.Healthy(
            $"{result.HealthyCount} healthy streams");
    }
}
```

### Consumer Health Check

Monitor consumer lag and stalls:

```csharp
public class ConsumerHealthCheck : IHealthCheck
{
    private readonly IConsumerHealthService _healthService;
    private readonly HealthCheckOptions _options;

    public async Task<HealthCheckResult> CheckHealthAsync(
        HealthCheckContext context,
        CancellationToken ct = default)
    {
        var consumers = await _healthService.GetAllConsumersAsync(ct);
        var unhealthyConsumers = new List<string>();
        var degradedConsumers = new List<string>();

        foreach (var consumer in consumers)
        {
            var lag = consumer.Lag;
            var timeSinceUpdate = DateTimeOffset.UtcNow - consumer.LastUpdated;

            // Check for stalls
            if (timeSinceUpdate > _options.UnhealthyStalledThreshold)
            {
                unhealthyConsumers.Add($"{consumer.ConsumerId} (stalled {timeSinceUpdate.TotalMinutes:F0}m)");
            }
            else if (timeSinceUpdate > _options.DegradedStalledThreshold)
            {
                degradedConsumers.Add($"{consumer.ConsumerId} (stalled {timeSinceUpdate.TotalMinutes:F0}m)");
            }
            // Check lag
            else if (lag > _options.UnhealthyConsumerLagThreshold)
            {
                unhealthyConsumers.Add($"{consumer.ConsumerId} (lag {lag})");
            }
            else if (lag > _options.DegradedConsumerLagThreshold)
            {
                degradedConsumers.Add($"{consumer.ConsumerId} (lag {lag})");
            }
        }

        if (unhealthyConsumers.Any())
        {
            return HealthCheckResult.Unhealthy(
                $"{unhealthyConsumers.Count} unhealthy consumers",
                data: new Dictionary<string, object>
                {
                    ["unhealthy_consumers"] = unhealthyConsumers,
                    ["degraded_consumers"] = degradedConsumers
                });
        }

        if (degradedConsumers.Any())
        {
            return HealthCheckResult.Degraded(
                $"{degradedConsumers.Count} degraded consumers",
                data: new Dictionary<string, object>
                {
                    ["degraded_consumers"] = degradedConsumers
                });
        }

        return HealthCheckResult.Healthy($"{consumers.Count} healthy consumers");
    }
}
```

## Configuration Options

```csharp
public class HealthCheckOptions
{
    // Consumer lag thresholds (event count)
    public long DegradedConsumerLagThreshold { get; set; } = 1000;
    public long UnhealthyConsumerLagThreshold { get; set; } = 10000;

    // Stall detection thresholds (time without progress)
    public TimeSpan DegradedStalledThreshold { get; set; } = TimeSpan.FromMinutes(5);
    public TimeSpan UnhealthyStalledThreshold { get; set; } = TimeSpan.FromMinutes(15);

    // Stream health thresholds
    public int MaxErrorRate { get; set; } = 5;  // Errors per minute
    public TimeSpan StreamUnresponsiveTimeout { get; set; } = TimeSpan.FromMinutes(5);
}
```

## Health Check Endpoints

### Basic Health Endpoint

```csharp
app.MapHealthChecks("/health");

// Returns:
// 200 OK: Healthy
// 503 Service Unavailable: Degraded or Unhealthy
```

### Detailed Health Endpoint

```csharp
app.MapHealthChecks("/health/detail", new HealthCheckOptions
{
    ResponseWriter = async (context, report) =>
    {
        context.Response.ContentType = "application/json";

        var result = new
        {
            status = report.Status.ToString(),
            totalDuration = report.TotalDuration.TotalMilliseconds,
            checks = report.Entries.Select(e => new
            {
                name = e.Key,
                status = e.Value.Status.ToString(),
                duration = e.Value.Duration.TotalMilliseconds,
                description = e.Value.Description,
                data = e.Value.Data,
                exception = e.Value.Exception?.Message
            })
        };

        await context.Response.WriteAsJsonAsync(result);
    }
});

// Returns detailed JSON response:
// {
//   "status": "Healthy",
//   "totalDuration": 45.2,
//   "checks": [
//     {
//       "name": "event-streams",
//       "status": "Healthy",
//       "duration": 23.1,
//       "description": "5 healthy streams",
//       "data": { "healthy": 5, "degraded": 0, "unhealthy": 0 }
//     }
//   ]
// }
```

### Liveness vs Readiness

```csharp
// Liveness - is the app running?
app.MapHealthChecks("/health/live", new HealthCheckOptions
{
    Predicate = check => check.Tags.Contains("live")
});

// Readiness - can the app serve traffic?
app.MapHealthChecks("/health/ready", new HealthCheckOptions
{
    Predicate = check => check.Tags.Contains("ready")
});

// Registration with tags
builder.Services.AddHealthChecks()
    .AddCheck<StreamHealthCheck>("event-streams", tags: new[] { "ready" })
    .AddCheck<ConsumerHealthCheck>("consumers", tags: new[] { "ready" })
    .AddCheck("self", () => HealthCheckResult.Healthy(), tags: new[] { "live" });
```

## Kubernetes Integration

```yaml
# deployment.yaml
apiVersion: apps/v1
kind: Deployment
metadata:
  name: event-processor
spec:
  template:
    spec:
      containers:
      - name: event-processor
        image: event-processor:latest
        ports:
        - containerPort: 80
        livenessProbe:
          httpGet:
            path: /health/live
            port: 80
          initialDelaySeconds: 10
          periodSeconds: 10
          timeoutSeconds: 5
          failureThreshold: 3
        readinessProbe:
          httpGet:

          periodSeconds: 5
          timeoutSeconds: 3
          failureThreshold: 3
```

## Health Check UI

```csharp
// Add Health Checks UI package
// dotnet add package AspNetCore.HealthChecks.UI
// dotnet add package AspNetCore.HealthChecks.UI.Client
// dotnet add package AspNetCore.HealthChecks.UI.InMemory.Storage

builder.Services.AddHealthChecks()
    .AddCheck<StreamHealthCheck>("event-streams")
    .AddCheck<ConsumerHealthCheck>("consumers");

builder.Services.AddHealthChecksUI()
    .AddInMemoryStorage();

var app = builder.Build();

app.MapHealthChecks("/health", new HealthCheckOptions
{
    ResponseWriter = UIResponseWriter.WriteHealthCheckUIResponse
});

app.MapHealthChecksUI(options =>
{
    options.UIPath = "/health-ui";
});

// Access UI at: http://localhost:5000/health-ui
```

## Custom Health Checks

### Projection Health Check

```csharp
public class ProjectionHealthCheck : IHealthCheck
{
    private readonly ICheckpointStore _checkpointStore;
    private readonly IEventStreamStore _eventStore;

    public async Task<HealthCheckResult> CheckHealthAsync(
        HealthCheckContext context,
        CancellationToken ct = default)
    {
        var checkpoint = await _checkpointStore.GetCheckpointAsync("order-summary", ct);
        var streamHead = await _eventStore.GetStreamHeadAsync("orders", ct);
        var lag = streamHead - checkpoint;

        if (lag > 10000)
        {
            return HealthCheckResult.Unhealthy(
                $"Projection critically lagging: {lag} events behind",
                data: new Dictionary<string, object>
                {
                    ["checkpoint"] = checkpoint,
                    ["stream_head"] = streamHead,
                    ["lag"] = lag
                });
        }

        if (lag > 1000)
        {
            return HealthCheckResult.Degraded(
                $"Projection lagging: {lag} events behind",
                data: new Dictionary<string, object>
                {
                    ["checkpoint"] = checkpoint,
                    ["stream_head"] = streamHead,
                    ["lag"] = lag
                });
        }

        return HealthCheckResult.Healthy($"Projection up-to-date (lag: {lag})");
    }
}
```

### Database Health Check

```csharp
public class PostgresHealthCheck : IHealthCheck
{
    private readonly IEventStreamStore _eventStore;

    public async Task<HealthCheckResult> CheckHealthAsync(
        HealthCheckContext context,
        CancellationToken ct = default)
    {
        try
        {
            using var cts = new CancellationTokenSource(TimeSpan.FromSeconds(5));
            await _eventStore.PingAsync(cts.Token);

            return HealthCheckResult.Healthy("PostgreSQL connection healthy");
        }
        catch (Exception ex)
        {
            return HealthCheckResult.Unhealthy(
                "PostgreSQL connection failed",
                exception: ex);
        }
    }
}
```

## Monitoring and Alerting

### Prometheus Integration

```csharp
// Export health check status as metrics
public class HealthCheckMetricsPublisher : IHealthCheckPublisher
{
    private readonly IMetrics _metrics;

    public Task PublishAsync(HealthReport report, CancellationToken ct)
    {
        foreach (var entry in report.Entries)
        {
            var status = entry.Value.Status switch
            {
                HealthStatus.Healthy => 1,
                HealthStatus.Degraded => 0.5,
                HealthStatus.Unhealthy => 0,
                _ => 0
            };

            _metrics.RecordGauge($"health_check_{entry.Key}", status);
        }

        return Task.CompletedTask;
    }
}

// Register publisher
builder.Services.AddSingleton<IHealthCheckPublisher, HealthCheckMetricsPublisher>();
```

### Alert on Unhealthy

```csharp
public class HealthCheckAlertPublisher : IHealthCheckPublisher
{
    private readonly IAlertService _alertService;

    public async Task PublishAsync(HealthReport report, CancellationToken ct)
    {
        if (report.Status == HealthStatus.Unhealthy)
        {
            await _alertService.SendAsync(new Alert
            {
                Severity = AlertSeverity.Critical,
                Title = "System Unhealthy",
                Description = $"Health check failed: {string.Join(", ", report.Entries.Where(e => e.Value.Status == HealthStatus.Unhealthy).Select(e => e.Key))}",
                Timestamp = DateTimeOffset.UtcNow
            });
        }
    }
}
```

## Best Practices

### ✅ DO

- Configure health checks for production
- Use appropriate thresholds for your workload
- Separate liveness and readiness probes
- Monitor health check metrics
- Set up alerts for unhealthy status
- Include health checks in deployment strategy
- Test health check behavior
- Document health check meanings

### ❌ DON'T

- Don't use same thresholds for all systems
- Don't ignore degraded status
- Don't skip health checks in production
- Don't make health checks too slow (> 5s)
- Don't forget to handle timeouts
- Don't expose sensitive data in health responses
- Don't use health checks for business logic
- Don't forget to test failure scenarios
