@Siumauricio improved documentations for zero-downtime.
I ran into a lot of issues with this for a Dockerfile-based deployment using NextJS - it was difficult to debug due to limited logging available for healthchecks.
The main issues were:
curl
is not installed in alphine-based images (only wget is available by default)HOSTNAME
environment variable to0.0.0.0
localhost
command used inwget
/curl
was resolving to::1
(IPv6 loopback) instead of 127.0.0.1 (IPv4), resulting in 404.I've updated the documentations for now, but some logging for the healthcheck, or even an icon/indicator to differentiate between healthy vs perpetually restarting, would be helpful.
