wait4x is a command-line utility for waiting on the availability of TCP, HTTP(s), and command-based targets. It is useful in scripts and containerized environments to ensure dependencies are ready before proceeding. wait4x is designed to be a drop-in replacement for other wait tools, but with more flexibility and protocol support.

Features

  • Wait for TCP, HTTP(s), or shell commands to succeed
  • Custom retry intervals and timeout settings
  • Zero external dependencies, written in Go
  • Works well in Docker and CI environments
  • Verbose mode for debugging connection issues
  • Simple and portable with prebuilt binaries
