Healthie.NET.Abstractions
▶ Live demo — healthie.compiletheory.com — a read-only Healthie.NET dashboard watching real status pages (Anthropic, OpenAI, GitHub, Cloudflare, and more), built from these packages.
Core interfaces, models, enums, and the PulseChecker abstract base class for the Healthie.NET health monitoring framework. This package contains no implementations -- only the contracts and types that all other Healthie.NET packages depend on.
Installation
dotnet add package Healthie.NET.Abstractions
Usage
Inherit from PulseChecker and override CheckAsync to implement a health check:
using Healthie.Abstractions;
using Healthie.Abstractions.Enums;
using Healthie.Abstractions.Models;
using Healthie.Abstractions.StateProviding;
public class DatabasePulseChecker : PulseChecker
{
private readonly IDbConnectionFactory _db;
public DatabasePulseChecker(IStateProvider stateProvider, IDbConnectionFactory db)
: base(stateProvider, PulseInterval.Every30Seconds, unhealthyThreshold: 3)
{
_db = db;
}
public override async Task<PulseCheckerResult> CheckAsync(
CancellationToken cancellationToken = default)
{
using var conn = await _db.CreateConnectionAsync(cancellationToken);
return new PulseCheckerResult(PulseCheckerHealth.Healthy, "OK");
}
}
Key Types
| Type | Description |
|---|---|
PulseChecker |
Abstract base class -- inherit to create a health check. |
IPulseChecker |
Full pulse checker contract (IPulse + IState + IAsyncDisposable). |
IStateProvider |
Contract for state persistence (GetStateAsync / SetStateAsync). |
IPulseScheduler |
Contract for scheduling (ScheduleAsync / UnscheduleAsync). |
PulseCheckerResult |
Record returned from CheckAsync with Health and Message. |
PulseCheckerState |
Record holding interval, threshold, failure count, history, tags, group, pin, and last result. |
PulseCheckerHealth |
Enum: Healthy, Suspicious, Unhealthy. |
PulseInterval |
Enum: 13 intervals from EverySecond to Every5Minutes. |
HealthieOptions |
Global options (e.g. MaxHistoryLength). |
Describing a checker
A checker can say where it belongs and what it is, and both are picked up by the dashboard.
public class RedisCachePulseChecker(IStateProvider stateProvider) : PulseChecker(stateProvider)
{
public override string DisplayName => "Redis Cache";
// One group at most: this is where the checker lives.
public override string DefaultGroup => "Data Stores";
// Any number of tags: these describe it, and may cut across groups.
public override IReadOnlyList<string> DefaultTags => ["tier-1", "cache"];
public override Task<PulseCheckerResult> CheckAsync(CancellationToken cancellationToken = default)
=> /* ... */;
}
Both seed PulseCheckerState the first time a checker runs and are never applied again, so a
change made later -- through SetGroupAsync / SetTagsAsync, or on the dashboard -- survives a
restart rather than being reset to what the code says.
SetPinnedAsync sorts a checker above the rest. A pin is stored with the checker rather than per
viewer, on the grounds that the checks worth watching are the same for everyone.

Twenty packages was too many, and two of them had no business being separate. This release fixes
that without breaking anything: **an application on 4.0.0 upgrades by changing nothing.**
### Added
- **`Healthie.NET`**, the package to install first. It carries no code of its own, only a dependency
on `Healthie.NET.DependencyInjection`, so it is one install and one dependency rather than a
bundle -- no provider, scheduler or UI framework arrives with it. The name people guess did not
exist before, and the actual entry point was called `DependencyInjection`, which reads like
plumbing rather than the way in.
- **Uptime reporting and leader election are in the core package.** `AddHealthieUptime()` and
`AddHealthieLeaderElection()` need nothing else installed. Both stay opt-in: nothing runs until
you call them.
### Deprecated
- **`Healthie.NET.Uptime`** and **`Healthie.NET.LeaderElection`**. Neither carried a third-party
dependency, so keeping them separate cost two installs and saved nothing -- the provider packages
exist to keep Npgsql or Temporalio off machines that do not use them, and these two were not
providers.
**Nothing breaks.** Both packages are still published, now as assemblies of type forwards, so an
application that references either keeps compiling *and* keeps running untouched. That is what
makes this a minor release: moving a type between assemblies is a binary break the compiler cannot
see, because source keeps building and only the runtime finds out. Remove the reference whenever it
suits you; neither package will gain features.
### Fixed
- **The sample Dockerfiles took their .NET base images by mutable tag.** A tag is a different image
next week, so the build that passed review is not the build that ships. Both are pinned by digest,
which Dependabot updates the way it updates a package version. Closes four OpenSSF Scorecard
*Pinned-Dependencies* findings.
### Security
- **An Azure CosmosDB key committed in May 2025 was confirmed dead and the alert closed.** It had
already been removed from the working tree; the account it belonged to no longer exists in the
owning tenant, verified by enumerating every Cosmos account across that tenant's subscriptions, so
the key authenticates to nothing. It remains in history at `ee0c78e`, inert.
- **Stray screenshots can no longer be committed.** Root-level PNGs are ignored, scoped to the root
so the images the docs and samples genuinely ship are untouched.
