HealthIndicators for spring boot actuator

we are trying to healthcheck a spring boot application, we are planning to use spring boot actuator health to get the health status.

what is confusing is which classes provide the default healthcheck status ({"status":"UP"}) when CassandraHealthIndicator, DiskSpaceHealthIndicator, DataSourceHealthIndicator, ElasticsearchHealthIndicator, JmsHealthIndicator, MailHealthIndicator, MongoHealthIndicator, RabbitHealthIndicator, RedisHealthIndicator, SolrHealthIndicator are not applicable.

Found the answer after tracing the health request. Default Health information is derived from DiskSpaceHealthIndicator, the request for health is handled from HealthMvcEndpoint

I believe the default is ApplicationHealthIndicator but you can of course write your own:

public class CustomHealthIndicator implements HealthIndicator {


    @Override
    public Health health() {
        int errorCode = check(); // perform some specific health check
        if (errorCode != 0) {
            return Health.down().withDetail("Error Code", errorCode).build();
        }
        return Health.up().build();
    }

    private int check() {

        return 0;
    }

}
