About

The purpose of this plugin is to perform GET requests against the Graylog REST API endpoints. The response is compliant with the Icinga plugin output format.

Disclaimer

Although used in some projects, I regard this plugin as a pamphlet and recommend others to view it for what it is: some lines scribbled on a napkin meanwhile on a beach 😉

Getting started

See how you can browse through the Graylog API here

Install JSONPath dependency with:

$ pip install -r requirements.txt

Instructions for installing Icinga plugins are here

Usage

Parameters:
-V, --version                                      |   (optional, displays script version)
-h, --help                                         |   (optional, displays this information)
-u, --user <username>                              |   (mandatory)
-p, --password <password>                          |   (mandatory)
-e, --endpoint <protocol>://<host>:<port>/<path>   |   (mandatory)
-f, --filter <object>                              |   (mandatory)
-c, --critical <integer>                           |   (mandatory)
-w, --warning <integer>                            |   (mandatory)

Example

./check_gl --endpoint http://localhost:12900/system/metrics/org.graylog2.buffers.process.usage --user dan --pass 1234 --filter buffers.input.utilization -c 50 -w 100

Some further improvements, at my earliest convenience:

  • Units for --warning and --critical paramters
  • Tests (most likely with nose2)
  • Remove the nasty JSONPath dependency
  • Enrich the output, as per the supported format by Icinga
  • Refactoring as per PEP8

Naturally, pull requests are welcome.
