Add Healthchecks.io plugin - #140

Conversation
Healthchecks.io is a cron job and heartbeat monitoring service with no SquaredUp integration. This adds a low-code plugin built on its Management API v3, so check status, up/down history and ping logs can sit alongside other monitoring data. A configurable server URL also covers self-hosted Healthchecks instances. API keys are scoped to one project, so each data source is one project. Both key types are supported and read-only is recommended: the plugin never writes, and a read-only key covers everything except the ping log. Read-only keys identify checks by `unique_key` instead of `uuid`; checks are indexed by whichever is present, since both are accepted by the check and flips endpoints. The ping log route only matches UUIDs, so a read-only key gets an HTML 404 rather than a 401; the pings error handler detects a `unique_key` scope and explains that a read-write key is needed. Checks are the only first-class entity in the API. The `checks` stream lists them in one request and serves import, config validation, the overview and the Check perspective through optional check and tag pickers. Flips and pings only exist per check, so `statusHistory` and `pings` are scoped one request per check, matching how Pingdom and other per-object endpoints are modelled. Status history turns flips into up/down periods clipped to the timeframe, so one stream gives both an availability split and an outage list. Tags are imported as their own objects and related to checks with a `has tag` correlation rule. The check's tags use the array shape so a single column drives display, filtering, the multi-value `checkTags` graph property and the `objectPropertyPath` read-back in the per-check streams. `tags` is a reserved vertex property, hence `checkTags`. Job duration is only recorded for pings that follow a `/start` signal, which plain cron setups rarely send. The Check perspective therefore charts ping results per day rather than duration, and duration stays in the recent pings table. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

📝 Walkthrough
Priority: ➖ Normal Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to The plugin is additive and isolated. Owners should be aware that the server URL accepts http:// while sending an API key, and that read-only check links rely on a badge-URL-derived fallback that has not been confirmed against the live API. Neither blocks merge. Architecture SummaryArchitecture risk: 🟡 Medium · up to The change affects 1 system. Changed systems: Architecture concerns Review details

Review comments at @.github/CODEOWNERS:
- Line 37: Update the plugins/Healthchecks.io/ CODEOWNERS entry to use a
trailing-slash directory pattern so the owner assignment covers files in nested
directories such as v1/.
Review comments at @plugins/Healthchecks.io/v1/dataStreams/checks.json:
- Line 167: Update the check-link valueExpression to handle read-only responses
without update_url by building the link from unique_key and the configured
server origin using Healthchecks.io’s /cloaked/{unique_key}/ route; preserve the
existing update_url-based link when that field is present.
Review comments at @plugins/Healthchecks.io/v1/dataStreams/pings.json:
- Around line 115-119: Remove the hidden body_url column from the pings stream
definition; do not add a shape for a field that provides little dashboard value.
Review comments at @plugins/Healthchecks.io/v1/dataStreams/scripts/checks.js:
- Line 3: Update idOf to return a Check identifier that remains consistent
across read-only and read-write API keys, so mapped IDs and existing selections
retain the same identity when credentials change.
Review comments at @plugins/Healthchecks.io/v1/ui.json:
- Line 22: Update the URL validation pattern in the Healthchecks.io
configuration to accept only HTTPS URLs, including self-hosted instances; reject
HTTP URLs.

Read-only keys identify a check by `unique_key` and read-write keys by `uuid`, so switching a data source from one to the other re-created every check and broke dashboards scoped to specific checks. That switch is a natural path, because the README recommends starting read-only and the ping log needs read-write. Healthchecks.io derives `unique_key` as the SHA-1 of the first 16 hex digits of the UUID, so the checks script now computes it for read-write keys with `crypto.subtle` and uses it as the id for both key types. I checked the derived values against what a read-only key returns for the same project. The flips endpoint accepts `unique_key` with either key, but the ping log route only accepts UUIDs, so the UUID is indexed as its own property for `pings`, and the pings error handler now detects a read-only key by that property being absent. Read-only checks also get a link now, through Healthchecks.io's `/cloaked/<unique_key>/` route (which sends a signed-in user to the check), rooted on `badge_url` so self-hosted instances under a subpath keep it. The unused ping `body_url` column is dropped. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
A `dir/*` pattern only matches files directly inside the directory, so the entry didn't apply to anything under `v1/`. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
