Check backend connection on /realm endpoint #292

Closed mohierf closed 6 years ago

mohierf commented 6 years ago

Checking Alignak backend correct connection on /alignak is not the best solution. You'd rather check with the /realm endpoint, because it is not manadatory that an alignak item exists in the backend...

@mohierf , Ok I'll correct that.

I thought this endpoint was always present.

It would be nice to indicate the endpoints, in backend documentation, that are basic available with a backend... :wink:

+1 for you, the doc should be updated with this information.

It would even be better to check on the /user endpoint. I am doing this with the Web UI to get the logged in user information ... I assume you are still doing this in App also ?

Only realm, user, host, hostgroup and servicegroup are endpoints that will always exist because the backend creates one item for each it it does not exist ...

@mohierf ok, I've set /user endpoint for connection checks.

And I've also opened an issue for backend documentation.
