Nagios::Scrape - Scrapes and Parses the status.cgi page of a Nagios installation
Version 0.03
This module uses LWP to retrieve the status.cgi page of a Nagios installation, parses the data into a manageable format, and then makes it accessible.
This is a more lightweight solution to Nagios installations where the status.dat file can reach 1+mb in size.
use Nagios::Scrape;
my $foo = Nagios::Scrape->new(username => $username, password => $password, url => $url);
@service_alerts = $foo->get_service_status();
@host_alerts = $foo->get_host_status();
Creates a new class given a username and password.
my $nagios = Nagios::Scrape->new(username => $username, password => $password, url => $url);
This method allows you to filter certain host states. The table is as follows:
Hosts: PENDING 1 UP 2 DOWN 4 UNREACHABLE 8
Add the number for each state that you want to see. For example, to see DOWN and UNREACHABLE states, set this value to 12. (Default value).
This method allows you to filter certain service states. The table is as follows:
Services: PENDING 1 OK 2 WARNING 4 UNKNOWN 8 CRITICAL 16
Add the number for each state you would like to see. For example, to see WARNING, UNKNOWN, and CRITICAL states, set the number to 28. (Default value).
Connects to given URL and retrieves the requested service statuses
Connects to given url and retrieves host statuses
Will parse the service status page into a manageable array of hashed service details.
Will parse the host status page into a manageable array of hashed service details.
Simple helper method that smooths out HTML strings from Nagios status.cgi page
