Javascript - Nagios CGIs

[estebanmonge]

Hi folks:

Is it possible to insert Javascript code in Extra Actions icon for make a dropdown menu instead a link?

The idea is add more than one link in the icon for different actions.

Thanks

The only way to do this is to modify the core CGI's and then recompile Nagios, this is a standard feature on Nagios XI but not core.

If Nagios XI is completely out of the question you could checkout V-Shell. Its a popular web frontend for Nagios Core.

OK... Can I obtain vía PHP/HTML/JavaScript without modify CGI some variables, such IP or HOSTNAME? For example adding HTML code to SSI share files.

I tried to insert PHP code in SSI files but doesn't works

Well, you could try the SSI approach, I would recommend using a PHP frontend, but if you want to go this route its availabe, here is the overview on sourceforge:

http://nagios.sourceforge.net/docs/3_0/cgiincludes.html

It will only include headers and footers, but that should do it for you.

OK, to use PHP you need create a PHP CLI script, for example:
#!/usr/bin/php
<?php
echo "<b>Nagios es pura vida</b>";
?>
But I have the dude... I want capture the hostname and create a dropdown menu in header for make ping.

Okis, I can make a little menu with util options with pure CSS and PHP code, I can adquire via URL the hostname.

In the image can see the look, and for demonstrative purposes I printed the hostname.

Now I need the IP, but via URL it's impossible, I have two options:
Via MK livestatus, I know how do it, but isn't standard and need additional steps
Via pure Nagios tricks... I don't know how, status.cgi, status.dat ¿? ¡¡¡Help appreciated!!!
