Get Linux Website Status Code

I have a small vps where I host a web application that I developed and it starts to get a lot of visits.

I need to check / check something, every X minutes, to check if the website is working (check the status code, 200) or if it is turned off (code 500) and if it is turned on, restart the script that I run made to restart some services.

Any idea how to test this on Linux? Curl, Lynx?

Ok, I created two scripts:

  • site-statush.sh http://yoursite.com => to check the status of the site, and if 200, do nothing, else call services-action.sh restart
  • services-action.sh restart = > , , $services
