[H-source-users] Can h-client be used noninteractively to monitor the health of the server?

[Yuchen Pei]

Hello,

Given the recent new activity on h-client, and the problem with the
server [1] that went unnoticed for a while, I'm thinking of adding a bit
of monitoring to the server.  After speaking to the FSF tech team, one
possibility is to set up a cron job to create, update and delete a test
entry periodically (e.g. daily), and notify me / the fsf sysadmin if the
server response is unexpected.

To that end, I wonder if h-client has any non-interactive interface
(e.g. command line), and if not, whether it is easy to add one?

Best,
Yuchen
