Cronitor is a service for heartbeat-style monitoring of anything that can send an HTTP request. It's particularly well suited for monitoring cron jobs, Jenkins jobs, or any other scheduled task.

This .NET library provides a simple abstraction for the pinging of a Cronitor monitor. For a better understanding of the API this library talks to, please see the documentation, links below.

• Activity API
• Monitor API
• Notifications API
• Telemetry API

Getting Started

HostBuilder

When using .NET Generic Host, HostBuilder it is recommended to also install Cronitor.Extensions.Hosting to enable a simpler setup.

await Host.CreateDefaultBuilder()
    .UseCronitor("apiKey")
    .Build()
    .RunAsync();

await Host.CreateDefaultBuilder()
    .UseCronitor((context) => context.Configuration.GetValue<string>("Cronitor:ApiKey"))
    .Build()
    .RunAsync();

The easiest way to use the client is to run .UseCronitor(), this will create a static instance (Cronitor) of the client that can be used throughout your application.
