NAME
Nagios::StatusLog, Nagios::(Service|Host|Program)::Status - Perl objects to represent the
Nagios status file
DESCRIPTION
Reads the Nagios status log and returns ::Status objects that can be used to get status
information about a host. For Nagios version 2.x logs, pass in the Version => 2.0
parameter to new(). And similarly, pass in the Version => 3.0 parameter to new() for
Nagios version 3.x logs.
my $log = Nagios::StatusLog->new(
Filename => "/var/opt/nagios/status.log",
Version => 1.0
);
$localhost = $log->host( "localhost" );
print "status of localhost is now ",$localhost->status(),"\n";
$log->update();
print "status of localhost is now ",$localhost->status(),"\n";
# for Nagios v2.0
my $log = Nagios::StatusLog->new(
Filename => "/var/cache/nagios2/status.dat",
Version => 2.0
);
# for Nagios v3.0
my $log = Nagios::StatusLog->new(
Filename => "/var/cache/nagios3/status.dat",
Version => 3.0
);
METHODS
new()
Create a new Nagios::StatusLog instance. The object will be initialized for you
(using $self->update()).
Nagios::StatusLog->new( "/var/opt/nagios/status.log" );

$log->update();

Returns a Nagios::Service::Status object. Input arguments can be a host_name and
description list, or a Nagios::Service object.
my $svc_stat = $log->service( "localhost", "SSH" );

STRUCTURE
This module contains 4 packages: Nagios::StatusLog, Nagios::Host::Status,
Nagios::Service::Status, and Nagios::Program::Status. The latter 3 of them are mostly
generated at compile-time in the BEGIN block. The accessor methods are real subroutines,
not AUTOLOAD, so making a ton of calls to this module should be fairly quick. Also,
update() is set up to only do what it says - updating from a fresh logfile should not
invalidate your existing ::Status objects.
