Add an healthcheck endpoint without authentication

[ludopaquet]

It could be nice especially for k8s if we could expose a /healthcheck or /ping without httpauth in any case. For liveness/readiness probe.

Thanks !

Hi @ludopaquet, installing the auth-check independently for each command is not available. I want to keep the utility as simple as possible. And setup auth per-command will complicate the interface too much. Alternatively there are two solutions:

• disable global auth and check auth header inside shell-command where it needed
• or add auth to the URL in k8s like: http://user:pass@host/healthcheck

Understood.
However, my intention is not to have auth per command but just one single point (like index) without auth in any case. Maybe I can propose a PR and you will decide if it's good for you or not ?

I could document and even make this path customizable from the command line if you want.
