This is a framework for writing your own Sensu plugins in Python. It's not required to write a plugin (most Nagios plugins will work without modification); it just makes it easier.
To implement your own check, subclass SensuPluginCheck, like this:
from sensu_plugin import SensuPluginCheck
class MyCheck(SensuPluginCheck):
def setup(self):
# Setup is called with self.parser set and is responsible for setting up
# self.options before the run method is called
self.parser.add_argument(
'-w',
'--warning',
required=True,
type=int,
help='Integer warning level to output'
)
self.parser.add_argument(
'-m',
'--message',
default=None,
help='Message to print'
)
def run(self):
# this method is called to perform the actual check
self.check_name('my_awesome_check') # defaults to class name
if self.options.warning == 0:
self.ok(self.options.message)
elif self.options.warning == 1:
self.warning(self.options.message)
elif self.options.warning == 2:
self.critical(self.options.message)
else:
self.unknown(self.options.message)
if __name__ == "__main__":
f = MyCheck()
To submit checks on behalf of another system, import push_event:
from sensu_plugin.pushevent import push_event
Then use with:
push_event(source="a_remote_host", check_name="MyCheckName", exit_code=2, message="My check has failed")
This will submit a check result (a failure) appearing to come from the remote host 'a_remote_host', for check 'MyCheckName'.
The default assumption is that there is a local sensu client running on port 3030, but you can override this by passing in sensu_client_host and sensu_client_port parameters.
The check submits the check in json format. Arbitrary extra fields can be added, e.g.
push_event(source="a_remote_host", check_name="MyCheckName", exit_code=2, message="My check has failed", team="MyTeam")
For a metric you can subclass one of the following;
- SensuPluginMetricGraphite
- SensuPluginMetricInfluxdb
- SensuPluginMetricJSON
- SensuPluginMetricStatsd
from sensu_plugin import SensuPluginMetricGraphite
class MyGraphiteMetric (SensuPluginMetricGraphite):
def run(self):
self.ok('sensu', 1)
if __name__ == "__main__":
metric = MyGraphiteMetric()
from sensu_plugin import SensuPluginMetricInfluxdb
class MyInfluxdbMetric (SensuPluginMetricInfluxdb):
def run(self):
self.ok('sensu', 'baz=42', 'env=prod,location=us-midwest')
if __name__ == "__main__":
metric = MyInfluxdbMetric()
from sensu_plugin import SensuPluginMetricJSON
class MyJSONMetric(OLDSensuPluginMetricJSON):
def run(self):
self.ok({'foo': 1, 'bar': 'anything'})
if __name__ == "__main__":
metric = MyJSONMetric()
from sensu_plugin import SensuPluginMetricStatsd
class MyStatsdMetric(SensuPluginMetricStatsd):
def run(self):
self.ok('sensu.baz', 42, 'g')
if __name__ == "__main__":
metric = MyStatsdMetric()
