blackbox? #64

A revamped Blockbox?

ribbybibby commented 3 years ago

The tcp and https probers are adapted from the blackbox_exporter but they export richer metrics about TLS certificates. This exporter could replace the blackbox_exporter as a TLS monitor, if you could benefit from the extra information it provides. I will always try to ensure that, as it relates to TLS, this exporter matches and exceeds the capabilities of the blackbox_exporter.

It just took me quite some time to figure out what the benefits over blackbox are :-). Maybe you could outline the advantages in the README? :)
