## Example Usage

With all of the following examples, you can additionally add the following parameters:

* `name`: The health check name. Default if not specified is `influxdb`.
* `failureStatus`: The `HealthStatus` that should be reported when the health check fails. Default is `HealthStatus.Unhealthy`.
* `tags`: A list of tags that can be used to filter sets of health checks.
* `timeout`: A `System.TimeSpan` representing the timeout of the check.

### Basic

This will create a new `InfluxDBClient` and reuse it on every request to get the health check result. Use
the extension method where you provide the `Uri` to connect with.

```csharp theme={null}
  public void ConfigureServices(IServiceCollection services)
   {
    services.AddHealthChecks()
      .AddInfluxDB("http://localhost:8086/?org=iotsharp&bucket=iotsharp-bucket&token=iotsharp-token");
    }
```

If you are sharing a single `InfluxDBClient` for every time a health check is requested,
you must ensure automatic recovery is enabled so that the `InfluxDBClient` can be re-established if lost.

```csharp theme={null}
    public void ConfigureServices(IServiceCollection services)
    {
      services.AddSingleton<InfluxDBClient>(sp =>
      {
        return InfluxDBClientFactory.Create("http://localhost:8086/?org=iotsharp&bucket=iotsharp-bucket&token=iotsharp-token");
      })
      .AddHealthChecks()
      .AddInfluxDB();
    }
```
