How to use httping and the customapi widget to monitor network proxy status

[jmbooth2000]

All, I created a configurable httping docker instances that allows you to periodically httping a website through a network proxy. I'm using this combined with the customapi widget to track if my proxies go down. The docker container allows you to specify the destination url, periodicity, and proxy settings.

You can't do this with ping as it won't work through most proxies and the SiteMonitor option doesn't support proxies.

See the httping Docker Hub page if you are interested in down loading.
