Hi, <div>Thanks for your reply.</div><div><br></div><div>As we know, MKLivestatus is a Nagios Event Broker (NEB) Module which can be used to extend the core of Nagios. This module can provide access to the live status information kept in the running Nagios process. It serves a unix socket for data exchange with external scripts/addons, it is stable and extremely fast.</div>
<div><br></div><div>status-txt is a simple and light way to get the nagios data in plain text, it likes status-json (<a href="http://exchange.nagios.org/directory/Addons/APIs/JSON/status-2Djson/details">http://exchange.nagios.org/directory/Addons/APIs/JSON/status-2Djson/details</a>), try to making it easier for other applications/services to use Nagios data.</div>
<div><br></div><div>I hope status-txt can be useful for those who have the same need as we did (try to get the nagios data as other easily readable format).</div><div><br></div><div>Best Wishes,</div><div>Wenhua</div><div>

Hi,<br>
<br>
You could also use the "mk_livestatus" broker (available here
<a href="http://mathias-kettner.de/checkmk_livestatus.html" target="_blank">http://mathias-kettner.de/checkmk_livestatus.html</a>) which can be used
to fetch information from Nagios in JSON format by forging your own
requests.<br>
<br>
Best regards,<br>

<pre>Hi all,
Recently, we need a API or application to get the nagios data as other
easily readable format such as XML, JSON or plain text instead of the
default HTML.
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.
Compile status-txt.c to create status-txt.cgi, this cgi accepts
exactly the same URL parameters that status.cgi accepts, and filters
its output appropriately.
In this version, it accepts almost all the arguments passed in the URL
which status.cgi accepts except "style", "navbarsearch", "columns" and
"noheader".
And we will add more functionalities in the next version.
The status-txt.cgi will returns service data that appears in the
"status" table of status.cgi as "host_ip host_status
[service:service_status;......]", not includes the top portion of the
page, eg:
196.0.0.1 UP HTTP_80:OK;
196.0.0.2 UP DB_PORT_3306:OK;DB_PORT_3307:OK;
And you can use some arguments to filter its output, such as
"hostgroup", "servicegroup", "host" and so on.
The attachment is the source code, if you have any ideas about it,
please feel free to let me know.
You can also get the source code from github

Thanks,
Best Wishes,
Wenhua
