weewx-healthchecks

A WeeWX extension that uses Healthchecks.io to monitor WeeWX.

At WeeWX startup, a start signal is sent to Healthchecks.io.

When WeeWX shutsdown, a failure signal is sent to Healthchecks.io.

Every WeeWX report cycle, a success signal is sent to Healthchecks.io.

How to handle missing or late success signals can be configured at Healthchecks.io.

The method(s) of notification are also selected at Healthchecks.io.

The getting started is a good introduction.
