<h1>Python</h1>
<p>If you are already using the requests library, it is convenient to also use it here:</p>
<div class="python highlight"><pre><span></span><code><span class="kn">import</span> <span class="nn">requests</span>
<span class="k">try</span><span class="p">:</span>
<span class="n">requests</span><span class="o">.</span><span class="n">get</span><span class="p">(</span><span class="s2">&quot;PING_URL&quot;</span><span class="p">,</span> <span class="n">timeout</span><span class="o">=</span><span class="mi">10</span><span class="p">)</span>
<span class="k">except</span> <span class="n">requests</span><span class="o">.</span><span class="n">RequestException</span> <span class="k">as</span> <span class="n">e</span><span class="p">:</span>
<span class="c1"># Log ping failure here...</span>
<span class="nb">print</span><span class="p">(</span><span class="s2">&quot;Ping failed: </span><span class="si">%s</span><span class="s2">&quot;</span> <span class="o">%</span> <span class="n">e</span><span class="p">)</span>
</code></pre></div>
<p>Otherwise, you can use the urllib module from Python 3 standard libary:</p>
<div class="python highlight"><pre><span></span><code><span class="kn">import</span> <span class="nn">socket</span>
<span class="kn">import</span> <span class="nn">urllib.request</span>
<span class="k">try</span><span class="p">:</span>
<span class="n">urllib</span><span class="o">.</span><span class="n">request</span><span class="o">.</span><span class="n">urlopen</span><span class="p">(</span><span class="s2">&quot;PING_URL&quot;</span><span class="p">,</span> <span class="n">timeout</span><span class="o">=</span><span class="mi">10</span><span class="p">)</span>
<span class="k">except</span> <span class="n">socket</span><span class="o">.</span><span class="n">error</span> <span class="k">as</span> <span class="n">e</span><span class="p">:</span>
<span class="c1"># Log ping failure here...</span>
<span class="nb">print</span><span class="p">(</span><span class="s2">&quot;Ping failed: </span><span class="si">%s</span><span class="s2">&quot;</span> <span class="o">%</span> <span class="n">e</span><span class="p">)</span>
</code></pre></div>
<p>You can include additional diagnostic information in the in the request body (for POST requests):</p>
<div class="python highlight"><pre><span></span><code><span class="c1"># Passing diagnostic information in the POST body:</span>
<span class="kn">import</span> <span class="nn">requests</span>
<span class="n">requests</span><span class="o">.</span><span class="n">post</span><span class="p">(</span><span class="s2">&quot;PING_URL&quot;</span><span class="p">,</span> <span class="n">data</span><span class="o">=</span><span class="s2">&quot;temperature=-7&quot;</span><span class="p">)</span>
</code></pre></div>
