Hi,

I am looking at making use of Quick Actions, and extending Nagios XI to send data to 'places'. So I am looking at the variable names that can be passed.
My question is about the hostchecktype variable.

Looking in the code, the function actions_component_get_host_vars and function actions_component_get_service_vars
are in place in the file actions.inc.php (in /usr/local/nagiosxi/html/includes/components/actions)

The Host Function shows this:
(near line 1116) :

Code: Select all

"hostchecktype" => strval($hoststatus_xml->hoststatus->check_type),

The Service Function shows both of these:
(near line 1227) :

Code: Select all

"hostchecktype" => strval($servicestatus_xml->servicestatus->check_type),

and
(near line 1258) :

Code: Select all

"hostchecktype" => strval($servicestatus_xml->servicestatus->host_check_type),

In the Service Function, should line 1227 be servicechecktype?

Is that a typo? It looks like to 2 variable names conflict.

Just wondering...

Thanks.

No, it is proper. Both DB fields are called check_type so the host one is labeled as host_check_type in the SQL query to differentiate them. The first one you posted is only querying the host so an alternate label is not needed.

so is there no servicechecktype?

Actually, after looking at it again, you are correct.

Line 1227 (or thereabouts) should be:

Code: Select all

"servicechecktype" => strval($servicestatus_xml->servicestatus->check_type),

okay, I'm not crazy... Please close this up - after you fix it in your code for the future...

Thanks
