HipSaint

Push your nagios notifications to HipChat using a simple command line tool.

Implements HipChat message API.

Inspired by https://gist.github.com/2418848.

Install

Through pip:

pip install hipsaint

Or clone and simply run:

python setup.py install

Usage in Nagios

Assuming you use Nagios 3 add the following sections to commands.cfg with <TOKEN> and <ROOM_ID> specified and macros delimited by |:

define command {
    command_name    notify-host-by-hipchat
    command_line    hipsaint -V 2 -token=<TOKEN> --room=<ROOM_ID> --type=host --inputs="$HOSTNAME$|$LONGDATETIME$|$NOTIFICATIONTYPE$|$HOSTADDRESS$|$HOSTSTATE$|$HOSTOUTPUT$" -n
}
define command {
    command_name    notify-service-by-hipchat
    command_line    hipsaint -V 2 --token=<TOKEN> --room=<ROOM_ID> --type=service --inputs="$SERVICEDESC$|$HOSTALIAS$|$LONGDATETIME$|$NOTIFICATIONTYPE$|$HOSTADDRESS$|$SERVICESTATE$|$SERVICEOUTPUT$" -n
}

To send less verbose messages to hipchat set the --type flag to either short-host or short-service.

Additional commands is available through:

hipsaint --help

Edit the Nagios contacts.cfg file by adding or editing an existing user and adding the notification commands created above:

define contact {
        ....
        .....
        service_notification_commands   notify-service-by-hipchat
        host_notification_commands      notify-host-by-hipchat
        email   /dev/null
}

Usage in Icinga 2

To use Hipsaint in Icinga 2, you can create an additional config like this :

Create two scripts, one for hosts, one for services :

Don't forget to fill <TOKEN> and <ROOM_ID>.

Hosts : /etc/icinga2/scripts/hipchat-host-notification.sh

#!/bin/bash

hipsaint --user=Icinga --token=<TOKEN> --room=<ROOM_ID> --type=host --inputs="$HOSTNAME|$LONGDATETIME|$NOTIFICATIONTYPE|$HOSTADDRESS|$HOSTSTATE|$HOSTOUTPUT" -n

Services : /etc/icinga2/scripts/hipchat-service-notification.sh

#!/bin/bash

hipsaint --user=Icinga --token=<TOKEN> --room=<ROOM_ID> --type=service --inputs="$SERVICEDESC|$HOSTALIAS|$LONGDATETIME|$NOTIFICATIONTYPE|$HOSTADDRESS|$SERVICESTATE|$SERVICEOUTPUT" -n

Then you need to tell Icinga to use those scripts :

Create a file called hipsaint.conf in your conf.d directory

/**
 * Hipchat/Hipsaint script for Icinga2
 *
 * Only applied if host/service objects have
 * the custom attribute `sla` set to `24x7`.
 */

object NotificationCommand "notify-host-by-hipchat" {
  import "plugin-notification-command"

  command = [ "/etc/icinga2/scripts/hipchat-host-notification.sh" ]

  env = {
    NOTIFICATIONTYPE = "$notification.type$"
    SERVICEDESC = "$service.name$"
    HOSTALIAS = "$host.display_name$"
    HOSTADDRESS = "$address$"
    SERVICESTATE = "$service.state$"
    LONGDATETIME = "$icinga.long_date_time$"
    SERVICEOUTPUT = "$service.output$"
  }
}

object NotificationCommand "notify-service-by-hipchat" {
  import "plugin-notification-command"

  command = [ "/etc/icinga2/scripts/hipchat-service-notification.sh" ]

  env = {
    NOTIFICATIONTYPE = "$notification.type$"
    SERVICEDESC = "$service.name$"
    HOSTALIAS = "$host.display_name$"
    HOSTADDRESS = "$address$"
    SERVICESTATE = "$service.state$"
    LONGDATETIME = "$icinga.long_date_time$"
    SERVICEOUTPUT = "$service.output$"
  }
}

apply Notification "hipchat-icingaadmin" to Host {
  command = "notify-host-by-hipchat"

  user_groups = [ "icingaadmins" ]

  assign where host.vars.sla == "24x7"
}

apply Notification "hipchat-icingaadmin" to Service {
  command = "notify-service-by-hipchat"

  user_groups = [ "icingaadmins" ]

  assign where service.vars.sla == "24x7"
}

You want to customize this to your groups and users.
