Nagios2JSON
One of my current projects is the Nagios enhancement in order to send status of hosts, services etc.. using JSON format. This will be provided by a new CGI script.
Sourceforge project : http://www.sourceforge.net/projects/nagios2json
Update 21th june 2008 :
PHP Class to use JSON format sent by Nagios2JSON CGI is now online :
https://nagios2json.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/nagios2json/PHP/
Update 19th june 2008 :
I see there is a lot visitor coming on this website.
Please don't hesitate to contact me if you need help for installing my script.
Update 15th june 2008 :
I coded a XSD Backend which write directly the file status.dat in JSON
It works for the moment with Nagios2 (I am finalizing the version for Nagios3).
This enhancement will allow easy and fast developpment of Web User Interfaces.
Another project is the developement of a JSON backend for NagVis to use with the Nagios JSON format export.
You can download the sources of Nagios2JSON CGI.
Installation on Nagios 2 :
Extract nag2-statusjson.tar.gz in the cgi directory of you nagios sources folder.
Run :
patch -p1 < cgi-makefilein.patch
../configure
make
make install

Why JSON ?
JSON is a easy to parse format which parser is implemented in PHP (from 5.2 : json_decode) as an example. You can find more information on www.json.org
