NAME

Nagios::StatusLog, Nagios::(Service|Host|Program)::Status - Perl objects to represent the Nagios status file

DESCRIPTION

Reads the Nagios status log and returns ::Status objects that can be used to get status information about a host. For Nagios version 2.x logs, pass in the Version => 2.0 parameter to new(). And similarly, pass in the Version => 3.0 parameter to new() for Nagios version 3.x logs.

my $log = Nagios::StatusLog->new(
               Filename => "/var/opt/nagios/status.log",
               Version  => 1.0
          );
$localhost = $log->host( "localhost" );
print "status of localhost is now ",$localhost->status(),"\n";
$log->update();
print "status of localhost is now ",$localhost->status(),"\n";

# for Nagios v2.0
my $log = Nagios::StatusLog->new(
               Filename => "/var/opt/nagios/status.dat",
               Version  => 2.0
          );

# for Nagios v3.0
my $log = Nagios::StatusLog->new(
               Filename => "/var/opt/nagios/status.dat",
               Version  => 3.0
          );

METHODS

new()

Create a new Nagios::StatusLog instance. The object will be initialized for you (using $self->update()). Nagios::StatusLog->new( "/var/opt/nagios/status.log" );

update()

Updates the internal data structures from the logfile. $log->update();

service()

Returns a Nagios::Service::Status object. Input arguments can be a host_name and description list, or a Nagios::Service object.

STRUCTURE

This module contains 4 packages: Nagios::StatusLog, Nagios::Host::Status, Nagios::Service::Status, and Nagios::Program::Status. The latter 3 of them are mostly generated at compile-time in the BEGIN block. The accessor methods are real subroutines, not AUTOLOAD, so making a ton of calls to this module should be fairly quick. Also, update() is set up to only do what it says - updating from a fresh logfile should not invalidate your existing ::Status objects.
