external command doc for Nagios 4.x ?

[nagmoto]

For eaxmple I can lookup DEL_SVC_DOWNTIME at following URL
https://old.nagios.org/developerinfo/ex ... and_id=126
But above URL is old. I am wondering if there is a newer externacommands doc for Nagios 4.x ?

Did you have any specific questions, or just looking for https://assets.nagios.com/downloads/nag ... mands.html ?

I am interested to learn more about DEL_SVC_DOWNTIME and found linked to old.nagios.org site like following.

>https://old.nagios.org/developerinfo/ex ... mmand_id=4

and DEL_SVC_DOWNTIME from above old site only showing supported version up to nagios 3.x.

Question : Is there a newer developerinfo site other than old.nagios.org ?

It's in the latest version: https://github.com/NagiosEnterprises/na ... commands.c

All I can find as far as developer info is https://labs.nagios.com/tag/developer-documentation/

I also sent this thread to our Core developer, in case he has a better place to send you for development documentation.

Thanks for the developer tag, it has some good article from Bryan Heden, like "Extending Nagios functionality with libnagios".
I am hoping external command part of doc can be updated with Nagios 4.2.4 status.
reading command.c is ok, but it means to me use it one's own risk, since it is not documented(after tested).

Ok, dev said first that the old.nagios.com is not actually all that old and should work just fine.

Also, he suggested you take a look at https://old.nagios.org/developerinfo/ex ... ndlist.php

Ultimately, Core development moves much more quickly than XI development, so it is hard to document. I did make our documentation team aware of this issue. I apologize that I cannot be more clear than that. Certainly if you run into issues using DEL_SVC_DOWNTIME, we will support it and file bugs as as appropriate. If you wish to bypass the support forum and file bugs directly, you can do so at https://github.com/NagiosEnterprises/na ... issues/new

Still says old.nagios.com, but 4.x has been added to https://old.nagios.org/developerinfo/ex ... mit=Update
