How to perform a HealthCheck on phpldapadmin?

[lsampaioweb]

I'm running openldap and phpldapadmin from a docker-compose file, for the openldap I was able to configure a healthcheck with "test: ldapwhoami -xH ldapi:// || exit 1". Is this the best way?

How can I perform a HealthCheck on phpldapadmin if you guys removed curl and wget?

I would like to run:
test: curl --fail -s http://localhost/ || exit 1

Maybe not ideal, but I've used pgrep:

    healthcheck:
      test: ["CMD-SHELL", "[ $$(pgrep -u www-data -c -f /usr/sbin/apache2) -gt 0 ] || exit 1"]

Doesn't prove the UI is actually available, but at least confirms the Apache httpd process is running (which should be service the PHP, but it could have errored and not shutdown).

I use this PHP script
It connects and checks the ssl fingerprint and exists+echo 0 if the contents where received, else exit+echo 1

        healthcheck:
            test: 'php -r ''$$c = is_string(file_get_contents("https://localhost?ping=pong", false, stream_context_create(["ssl" => ["verify_peer"=> false, "verify_peer_name"=> true, "peer_name"=> "${DOMAIN_NAME}", "peer_fingerprint" => openssl_x509_fingerprint(file_get_contents("/container/service/phpldapadmin/assets/apache2/certs/fullchain.cer")) ]]))); echo $$c; exit($$c === true ? 0 : 1);'''
            interval: 30s
            timeout: 3s
            retries: 3

I have used your command for a long time now in a docker-compose and it worked well. I'm trying to use the same command in docker run and it seems to be impossible. I have no idea what is wrong but the syntax will always complain. I tried like 10 different variants of this command but it won't work. I need docker run for my UNRAID system...
