HTTP Health Check Endpoint for Events API

[jonwinton]

Hi! I'm just getting started with this library and have a demo app using the events API. I need to deploy the app to AWS ECS, and for that I'll need to set up a health check on the load balancer that exposes the endpoint. I know the http-server module exists, but the load balancer health check needs to be pointed at the same port that is receiving traffic.

What's the best way to go about this? I considered adding a /ping endpoint to the sever spun up in this module, but I hope someone else has solved this already.

Thanks!

Sorry for never answering here. Looks like this fell between the cracks and then I completely forgot about this request.
Implementing a custom health check endpoint which would run on the same port as the event API server is now supported via #21 🎉 (see unit tests in the PR)

No worries, thanks!
