v0.5.1
Changes
- Added Support for content search in HTTP/HTTPS - courtesy of @pbombnz
let ping = new Monitor({
website: 'https://ecommorce-shop.com/playstation5',

}
});
ping.on('up', function (res, state) {

});
ping.on('error', function (error, res) {
console.error(error);
});v0.5.0
Changes
- Added
timeoutevent to Monitor instance. This event is passed from the htt/s module.
myMonitor.on('timeout', function (error, res) {
console.log(error);
});
// also make sure that you are handling the error event
myMonitor.on('error', function (error, res) {
console.log(error);
});- Dependencies update
Please note: When the timeout event is fired, it is followed by the error event which is created when we manually abort the http request.
