Run a Nagios passive check and submit its result via the Nagios CGI. Use with
cron.
Examples:
run-nagios-passive-check-and-submit myhost "My fancy service" /usr/lib/nagios/plugins/check_dummy 1
run-nagios-passive-check-and-submit --host myhost /usr/bin/echo OK
Requires Python >= 2.7
You need credentials for the Nagios web interface to submit the check results via the Nagios CGI. Put those in a configuration file:
~/.config/run-nagios-passive-check-and-submit.yaml:
---

nagios_user: myuser
