URL Scanner

This simple app is to help me monitor the health of a collection of URLs. The goal is to make sure that all of them are returning 200 status codes, and if not do something to make that obvious.

Setup

1. make sure python and flask is installed
2. make sure a PostgreSQL database is ready, and specify the following environment variable:

   export DATABASE_URL=postgres://example.com
   

3. Ensure the application environment variable is set

   export FLASK_APP=app.py
   

4. Install requirements

   pip3 install -r requirements.txt
   

5. Run the application

   flask run
   

6. Browse to the /install endpoint to setup the tables and add some sample data
