92+ Before you deploy the server, you must adapt it for Koyeb's environment. This

94+
95+ 1. Koyeb provides the port on which the server should listen in the ``$PORT ``

97+
98+ 2. Koyeb requires a health check to verify that the server is running. We'll add
99+ a HTTP health check.

120+ that response instead of opening a WebSocket connection. Here, requests to
121+ ``/healthz `` return an HTTP 200 status code.
122+
91123To catch the ``SIGTERM `` signal, ``main() `` creates a :class: `~asyncio.Future `
