Arguments

what

(character) One of status (default), content, or an HTTP status code. If status, we just check that the HTTP status code is 200, or similar signifying the service is up. If content, we do a simple, quick check to determine if returned content matches what's expected. If an HTTP status code, it must match an appropriate code. See status_codes.
