# Heartbeat (Experimental)
|
|
|
|
Welcome to Heartbeat.
|
|
|
|
This is a new EXPERIMENTAL beat for testing service availability using PING based on ICMP, TCP or higher level protocols.
|
|
|
|
Ensure that this folder is at the following location:
|
|
`${GOPATH}/src/github.com/elastic/beats`
|
|
|
|
## Getting Started with Heartbeat
|
|
|
|
### Requirements
|
|
|
|
* [Golang](https://golang.org/dl/) 1.7
|
|
|
|
### Build
|
|
|
|
To build the binary for Heartbeat run the command below. This will generate a binary
|
|
in the same directory with the name heartbeat.
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
make
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
### Run
|
|
|
|
To run Heartbeat with debugging output enabled, run:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
./heartbeat -c heartbeat.yml -e -d "*"
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
### Update
|
|
|
|
Each beat has a template for the mapping in elasticsearch and a documentation for the fields
|
|
which is automatically generated based on `fields.yml`.
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
make update
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
### Cleanup
|
|
|
|
To clean Heartbeat source code, run the following commands:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
make fmt
|
|
make simplify
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
To clean up the build directory and generated artifacts, run:
