Report on Host and associated services

[tmattingly]

Hi Nagios folks!

Is there an easy way to generate a report of all the hosts that are currently being monitored and all the services related to that specific host in the report?

The API can used to this information. Below is bash script do get a list of hosts and all the services. Make sure to replace xiip and apikey with the IP address of the XI machine and the API key of that machine which can be found under Help > REST API Docs > Introduction.

Code: Select all

#!/bin/bash

xi_ip=xiip
api_key=apikey

hosts=($(curl -XGET "http://$xi_ip/nagiosxi/api/v1/objects/host?apikey=$api_key&pretty=1" 2>/dev/null | grep host_name | awk '{print $2}' | sed s/\"//g | sed s/,//))

for i in "${hosts[@]}"
do
echo "Host: $i"
        services=($(curl -XGET "http://$xi_ip/nagiosxi/api/v1/objects/service?apikey=$api_key&pretty=1&host_name=$i" 2>/dev/null | grep service_description | awk '{print $2}' | sed s/\"//g | sed s/,//))

        printf "\t%s\n" "Services:"
        printf "\t%s\n" "Service: ${services[@]}"

done

There are also these interfaces:

https://nagiosxi_ip/nagios/jsonquery.html

Under help I don't have that under Help > REST API Docs > Introduction.

See attachment.

I was able to get the APIkey. (Your interface is fascinating to display it in blue and the examples you supply have references to my Nagios HOST!)

But I get no output. I did test Bash with a "hello world" test and that works so.... Can you hep me with why its not running or displaying any output?

Double check the script and try running it with the "-x" option:

Code: Select all

bash -x report.sh

You can try running the curl commands from the command line as well:

Code: Select all

curl -XGET "http://$xi_ip/nagiosxi/api/v1/objects/host?apikey=$api_key&pretty=1"
curl -XGET "http://$xi_ip/nagiosxi/api/v1/objects/service?apikey=$api_key&pretty=1&host_name=$i"
