Querying nagios object information through command line

[Wenhua Zhang]

Hi Yu,
I think status-txt may do some help for you.
status-txt is implemented to duplicate the output of status.cgi in
plain text to achieve this goal, making it easier for other
applications/services to use Nagios data. You can also get the source
code from github "https://github.com/shiziwen/nagios-status2txt".

Besides plain text, there have been some other format you can use, XML and JSON.
JOSN: http://exchange.nagios.org/directory/Addons/APIs/JSON/status-2Djson/details
XML: http://svn.jasonantman.com/nagios-xml/statusXML-krzywanski.php,
and this(c version of nagios-xml:
http://svn.jasonantman.com/nagios-xml/php_module/), which maybe more
usefull for light-weight or high-performance purpose.

I hope it can do some help for you.
