DESCRIPTION:¶ ↑

This allows you to easily write Nagios plugins in Ruby.

Example¶ ↑

#!/usr/bin/env ruby
require 'rubygems'
require 'nagios-plugin'
require 'time'

class MyNagiosCheck < Nagios::Plugin
  # What should run when check is run
  def run

    # Get more options via arguments using the OptParse object.
    # -w and -c for warning and critical thresholds are already included
    @opts.on('-H', '--host HOST', 'Proxy server to check') do |h|
      @proxy_host = h
    end

    # Init the argument parser
    parse_argv

    # Begin the check
    begin

      # Record the second when the check started to run
      started_at=Time.now

      # Run the commands you actually need for your check

      some_ruby_code_to_run

      # Calculate the run time
      run_time = Time.now - started_at

      # Add Performance data
      add_perfdata(:field => "run time", :data => run_time, :critical => @critical, :warning => @warning, :uom => 'secs')

      # Check the values against the thresholds
      if run_time > @critical.to_f
        critical("Took more than #{@critical}")
      elsif run_time > @warning.to_f
        warning("Took more than #{@warning}")
      else
        ok("Yay!")
      end

    # When the code has failed
    rescue
      critical("Check Failed!")
    end
  end
end

# Initialize and run the check!
@my_nagios_check = MyNagiosCheck.new(:shortname => 'my_nagios_check')
@my_nagios_check.run
