With that it will be possible to collect 'advanced data' for the module Icinga 2.
As always, we work according to the motto "we take what we get".
The API requests are not only for the local machine. With
--icinga2-api-endpointsyou can define every Icinga 2 endpoint you want to collect data from.For the authentication you will need to deploy a global API user. Easiest way would be to create an user in a global zone like 'director-global' and deploy.
User and password are also provided by arguments. We don't save the credentials. They are only stored inside the runtime variables.
For the moment only data from
/v1/statuswill be collected. However, the code is built in such a way that more can be added as required.
