Hi,

We need to develop an event broker module. Is there any updated documents or web site I can reference to?

Thanks you.

I'm not sure if there are any new for the 3.x series (I haven't found them), but there is some old documentation at http://old.nagios.org/developerinfo/ and in Chapter 8 of the book "Building a Monitoring Infrastructure with Nagios".

Thanks. That is all I can find too.
How much we can rely on those old documents? I don't want to spend so much time on developing something base on it and ends up failed.

Is there any kind of we sites or info for people who want to develop something for Nagios? Thanks a lot.

I'm told that the old documents should still be mostly or entirely accurate, so you can use them as your base. Unfortunately there is not anything else that we are aware of. Most people who have developed EBMs have done so just by looking at the code for other existing ones. For that, ones you can look for are NDOUtils, DNX, Merlin, and MkLiveStatus.
