SVGmonit, turn a system overview in SVG into a live network monitor

The simplest live system overview monitor that runs http checks directly from an in SVG thats for example exported from yEd. Add CHECK-tag to any HTTP/HTTPS endpoint to the SVG and thats it. Links added to the SVG will also be interactive and will be opened in new window. Small Node.js-server updating the SVG with status colors of i.e. a network link between two systems.

Today the only check is if the url returns 200 ok.

Docker secrets
