  1. What's the feature?

Docker, in API 1.44+ (and engine/compose 24+?) introduced a new feature that defines an interval to conduct healthchecks during the startup period: docker create doc with --health-start-interval, release of compose. This allows rapid checks of health while a container starts up, then falls back to the regular interval once the container has started.

This is ideal for applications such as this image, where it may take a few seconds to start up, and then does not need to be poked often (hence the current interval of 1m). It would be nice if this image would define a start interval, ideally with a small (5s?) value, as the container would be able to become healthy much quicker and speed up deployments!

  1. Extra information?

The version of docker provided in GitHub Actions may be a bit too old to build with this newer flag. You can add the following to your workflow to workaround this:

      - name: Print Docker version
        run: docker version

      - name: Install Latest Docker
        run: |
          curl -fsSL https://download.docker.com/linux/ubuntu/gpg | sudo apt-key add -
          sudo add-apt-repository "deb [arch=amd64] https://download.docker.com/linux/ubuntu  $(lsb_release -cs)  stable"
          sudo apt-get update
          sudo apt-get install docker-ce
