How to check for worker health.

Created by: lan-nguyen91

Question: Worker HealthCheck

I have a simple implementation where API create jobs, and multiple workers just subscribe and process jobs.

I would like to scale the workers and monitor their health. Worker is just a simple script file and doesn't have any rest endpoint. What would be the best way to get the health of the worker. Ideally worker will be running in a separate container which has no knowledge of the main API.

Is Bull provide such functionality, if not is it prefer if I just open another queue for healthcheck (sound like a hack) 🤔

Thanks.
