# Description
This document introduces the best practices in the development of "centreon-plugins".
As all plugins are written in Perl, “there is more than one way to do it”.
But to avoid reinventing the wheel, you should first take a look at the “example” directory, you will get an overview of how to build your own plugin and associated modes.
There are 3 chapters:
* [Quick Start](#quick-start) : Howto create file structure.
* [Libraries Reference](#libraries-reference) : API description.
* [Code Style Guidelines](#code-style-guidelines) : Follow it.
* [Model Classes Usage](#model-classes-usage) : description of classes you should use for your plugin.
The lastest version is available on following git repository: https://github.com/centreon/centreon-plugins.git

## Quick Start
---
### Directory creation
---
First of all, you need to create a directory on the git to store the new plugin.
Root directories are organized by section:
* Application : apps
* Database : database
* Hardware : hardware
* network equipment : network
* Operating System : os
* Storage equipment : storage
According to the monitored object, it exists an organization which can use:
* Type
* Constructor
* Model
* Monitoring Protocol
For example, if you want to add a plugin to monitor Linux by SNMP, you need to create this directory:
```shell
$ mkdir -p os/linux/snmp
```
You also need to create a "mode" directory for futures modes:
```shell
$ mkdir os/linux/snmp/mode
```
### Plugin creation
Once the directory is created, create the plugin file inside it:
```shell
$ touch plugin.pm
```
Then, edit plugin.pm to add **license terms** by copying it from an other plugin. Don't forget to put your name at the end of it:
```perl
# ...
# Authors : <your name> <<your email>>
```
Next, describe your **package** name : it matches your plugin directory.
```perl
package path::to::plugin;
```
Declare used libraries (**strict** and **warnings** are mandatory). Centreon libraries are described later:
```perl
use strict;
use warnings;
use base qw(**centreon_library**);
```
The plugin need a **new** constructor to instantiate the object:
```perl
sub new {
my ($class, %options) = @_;
my $self = $class->SUPER::new(package => __PACKAGE__, %options);
bless $self, $class;
...
return $self;
}
```
Plugin version must be declared in the **new** constructor:
```perl
$self->{version} = '0.1';
```
Several modes can be declared in the **new** constructor:
```perl
$self->{modes} = {
'mode1' => '<plugin_path>::mode::mode1',
'mode2' => '<plugin_path>::mode::mode2',
...
};
```
Then, declare the module:
```perl
1;
```
A description of the plugin is needed to generate the documentation:
```perl
__END__
=head1 PLUGIN DESCRIPTION
<Add a plugin description here>.
=cut
```
> **TIP**: You can copy-paste an other plugin.pm and adapt some lines (package, arguments...).
> **TIP**: The plugin has ".pm" extension because it's a Perl module. So don't forget to add **1;** at the end of the file.
## Mode creation
---
Once **plugin.pm** is created and modes are declared in it, create modes in the **mode** directory:
```shell
cd mode
touch mode1.pm
```
Then, edit mode1.pm to add **license terms** by copying it from an other mode. Don't forget to put your name at the end of it:
```perl
# ...
# Authors : <your name> <<your email>>
```
Next, describe your **package** name: it matches your mode directory.
```perl
package path::to::plugin::mode::mode1;
```
Declare used libraries (always the same):
```perl
use strict;
use warnings;
use base qw(centreon::plugins::mode);
```
The mode needs a **new** constructor to instantiate the object:
```perl
sub new {
my ($class, %options) = @_;
my $self = $class->SUPER::new(package => __PACKAGE__, %options);
bless $self, $class;
...
return $self;
}
```
Mode version must be declared in the **new** constructor:
```perl
$self->{version} = '1.0';
```
Several options can be declared in the **new** constructor:
```perl
$options{options}->add_options(arguments => {
"option1:s" => { name => 'option1' },
"option2:s" => { name => 'option2', default => 'value1' },
"option3" => { name => 'option3' },
});
```
Here is the description of arguments used in this example:
* option1 : String value
* option2 : String value with default value "value1"
* option3 : Boolean value
> **TIP** : You can have more informations about options format here: http://perldoc.perl.org/Getopt/Long.html
The mode need a **check_options** method to validate options:
```perl
sub check_options {
my ($self, %options) = @_;
$self->SUPER::init(%options);
...
}
```
For example, Warning and Critical thresholds must be validate in **check_options** method:
```perl
if (($self->{perfdata}->threshold_validate(label => 'warning', value => $self->{option_results}->{warning})) == 0) {
$self->{output}->add_option_msg(short_msg => "Wrong warning threshold '" . $self->{option_results}->{warning} . "'.");
$self->{output}->option_exit();
}
if (($self->{perfdata}->threshold_validate(label => 'critical', value => $self->{option_results}->{critical})) == 0) {
$self->{output}->add_option_msg(short_msg => "Wrong critical threshold '" . $self->{option_results}->{critical} . "'.");
$self->{output}->option_exit();
}
```
In this example, help is printed if thresholds do not have a correct format.
Then comes the **run** method, where you perform measurement, check thresholds, display output and format performance datas.
This is an example to check a SNMP value:
```perl
sub run {
my ($self, %options) = @_;
$self->{snmp} = $options{snmp};
$self->{hostname} = $self->{snmp}->get_hostname();
my $result = $self->{snmp}->get_leef(oids => [$self->{option_results}->{oid}], nothing_quit => 1);
my $value = $result->{$self->{option_results}->{oid}};
my $exit = $self->{perfdata}->threshold_check(value => $value,
threshold => [ { label => 'critical', 'exit_litteral' => 'critical' }, { label => 'warning', exit_litteral => 'warning' } ]);
$self->{output}->output_add(severity => $exit,
short_msg => sprintf("SNMP Value is %s.", $value));
$self->{output}->perfdata_add(label => 'value', unit => undef,
value => $value,
warning => $self->{perfdata}->get_perfdata_for_output(label => 'warning'),
critical => $self->{perfdata}->get_perfdata_for_output(label => 'critical'),
min => undef, max => undef);
$self->{output}->display();
$self->{output}->exit();
}
```
In this example, we check a SNMP OID that we compare to warning and critical thresholds.
There are the methods which we use:
* get_leef : get a SNMP value from an OID
* threshold_check : compare SNMP value to warning and critical thresholds
* output_add : add output
* perfdata_add : add perfdata to output
* display : display output
* exit : exit
Then, declare the module:
```perl
1;
```
A description of the mode and its arguments is needed to generate the documentation:
```perl
__END__
=head1 PLUGIN DESCRIPTION
<Add a plugin description here>.
=cut
```
## Commit and push
---
Before committing the plugin, you need to create an **enhancement ticket** on the centreon-plugins forge : http://forge.centreon.com/projects/centreon-plugins
Once plugin and modes are developed, you can commit (commit messages in english) and push your work:
```shell
git add path/to/plugin
git commit -m "Add new plugin for XXXX refs #<ticked_id>"
git push
```
## Libraries reference
---
This chapter describes Centreon libraries which you can use in your development.
### Output
---
This library allows you to build output of your plugin.

$self->{statefile_value}->check_options(%options);
$self->{statefile_value}->read(statefile => 'my_cache_file',
statefile_dir => '/var/lib/centreon/centplugins'
);
my $value = $self->{statefile_value}->get(name => 'property1');
print $value."\n";
```
Output displays value for 'property1' of the cache file.
#### write
**Description**
Write data to cache file.
**Parameters**
Parameter | Type | Default | Description
----------|--------|---------|-----------------------------
data | String | | Data to write in cache file.
**Example**
This is an example of how to use **write** method:
```perl
$self->{statefile_value} = centreon::plugins::statefile->new(%options);
$self->{statefile_value}->check_options(%options);
$self->{statefile_value}->read(statefile => 'my_cache_file',
statefile_dir => '/var/lib/centreon/centplugins'
);
my $new_datas = {};
$new_datas->{last_timestamp} = time();
$self->{statefile_value}->write(data => $new_datas);
```
Then, you can read the result in '/var/lib/centreon/centplugins/my_cache_file', timestamp is written in it.
### HTTP
---
This library provides a set of methodss to use HTTP protocol.
To use it, add the following line at the beginning of your **mode**:
```perl
use centreon::plugins::http;
```
Some options must be set in **plugin.pm**:
Option | Type | Description
-------------|--------|--------------------------------------------------------
**hostname** | String | IP Addr/FQDN of the webserver host.
**port** | String | HTTP port.
**proto** | String | Used protocol ('http' or 'https').
credentials | | Use credentials.
ntlm | | Use NTLM authentication (if ``--credentials`` is used).
username | String | Username (if ``--credentials`` is used).
password | String | User password (if ``--credentials`` is used).
proxyurl | String | Proxy to use.
url_path | String | URL to connect (start to '/').
#### connect
**Description**
Test a connection to an HTTP url.
Return content of the webpage.
**Parameters**
This method use plugin options previously defined.
**Example**
This is an example of how to use **connect** method.
We suppose these options are defined :
* --hostname = 'google.com'
* --urlpath = '/'
* --proto = 'http'
* --port = 80
```perl
$self->{http} = centreon::plugins::http->new(output => $self->{output}, options => $self->{options});
$self->{http}->set_options(%{$self->{option_results}});
my $webcontent = $self->{http}->request();
print $webcontent;
```
Output displays content of the webpage '\http://google.com/'.
### DBI
---
This library allows you to connect to databases.
To use it, add the following line at the beginning of your **plugin.pm**:

### Simple SNMP request
---
**Description**
This example explains how to check a single SNMP value on a PfSense firewall (memory dropped packets).
We use cache file because it's a SNMP counter. So we need to get the value between 2 checks.
We get the value and compare it to warning and critical thresholds.
#### Plugin file
First, create the plugin directory and the plugin file:
```
$ mkdir -p apps/pfsense/snmp
$ touch apps/pfsense/snmp/plugin.pm
```
> **TIP** : PfSense is a firewall application and we check it using SNMP protocol
Then, edit **plugin.pm** and add the following lines:
```perl

```
> **TIP** : Don't forget to edit 'Authors' line.
Add **new** method to instantiate the plugin:
```perl
sub new {
my ($class, %options) = @_;
my $self = $class->SUPER::new(package => __PACKAGE__, %options);
bless $self, $class;
# $options->{options} = options object
# Plugin version
$self->{version} = '0.1';
# Modes association
%{$self->{modes}} = (
# Mode name => path to the mode
'memory-dropped-packets' => 'apps::pfsense::snmp::mode::memorydroppedpackets',
);
return $self;
}
```
Declare this plugin as a perl module:
```perl
1;
```
Add a description to the plugin:
```perl
__END__
=head1 PLUGIN DESCRIPTION
Check pfSense in SNMP.
=cut
```
> **TIP** : This description is printed with '--help' option.
#### Mode file
Then, create the mode directory and the mode file:
```shell
$ mkdir apps/pfsense/snmp/mode
$ touch apps/pfsense/snmp/mode/memorydroppedpackets.pm
```
Edit **memorydroppedpackets.pm** and add the following lines:
```perl

return $self;
}
```
> **TIP** : A default value can be added to options.
Example : "warning:s" => { name => 'warning', default => '80'},
Add **check_options** method to validate options:
```perl
sub check_options {
my ($self, %options) = @_;
$self->SUPER::init(%options);
# Validate threshold options with threshold_validate method
if (($self->{perfdata}->threshold_validate(label => 'warning', value => $self->{option_results}->{warning})) == 0) {

$self->{output}->option_exit();
}
# Validate cache file options using check_options method of statefile library
$self->{statefile_value}->check_options(%options);
}
```
Add **run** method to execute mode:
```perl
sub run {
my ($self, %options) = @_;
# $options{snmp} = snmp object
# Get SNMP options
$self->{snmp} = $options{snmp};
$self->{hostname} = $self->{snmp}->get_hostname();

$result = $self->{snmp}->get_leef(oids => [ $oid_pfsenseMemDropPackets ], nothing_quit => 1);
# $result is a hash table where keys are oids
$value = $result->{$oid_pfsenseMemDropPackets};
# Read the cache file
$self->{statefile_value}->read(statefile => 'pfsense_' . $self->{hostname} . '_' . $self->{snmp_port} . '_' . $self->{mode});

$self->{output}->output_add(severity => 'OK',
short_msg => "Buffer creation...");
$self->{output}->display();
$self->{output}->exit();
}
# Fix when PfSense reboot (snmp counters initialize to 0)
$old_memDropPackets = 0 if ($old_memDropPackets > $new_datas->{memDropPackets});
# Calculate time between 2 checks
my $delta_time = $new_datas->{last_timestamp} - $old_timestamp;
$delta_time = 1 if ($delta_time == 0);
# Calculate value per second
my $memDropPacketsPerSec = ($new_datas->{memDropPackets} - $old_memDropPackets) / $delta_time;
# Calculate exit code by comparing value to thresholds
# Exit code can be : 'OK', 'WARNING', 'CRITICAL', 'UNKNOWN'
my $exit_code = $self->{perfdata}->threshold_check(value => $memDropPacketsPerSec,

}
```
Declare this plugin as a perl module:
```perl
1;
```
Add a description of the mode options:
```perl
__END__
=head1 MODE
Check number of packets per second dropped due to memory limitations.
=over 8
=item B<--warning>
Warning threshold for dropped packets in packets per second.
=item B<--critical>
Critical threshold for dropped packets in packets per second.
=back
=cut
```
#### Command line
This is an example of command line:
```
$ perl centreon_plugins.pl --plugin apps::pfsense::snmp::plugin --mode memory-dropped-packets --hostname 192.168.0.1 --snmp-community 'public' --snmp-version '2c' --warning '1' --critical '2'
```
Output may display:
```
OK: Dropped packets due to memory limitations : 0.00 /s | dropped_packets_Per_Sec=0.00;0;;1;2
```
## Code Style Guidelines
---
**Introduction**
Perl code from Pull-request must conform to the following style guidelines. If you find any code which doesn't conform, please fix it.
### Indentation
Space should be used to indent all code blocks. Tabs should never be used to indent code blocks. Mixing tabs and spaces results in misaligned code blocks for other developers who prefer different indentation settings.
Please use 4 for indentation space width.
```perl
if ($1 > 1) {
....return 1;
} else {
if ($i == -1) {
....return 0;
}
return -1
}
```
### Comments
There should always be at least 1 space between the # character and the beginning of the comment. This makes it a little easier to read multi-line comments:
```perl
# Good comment
#Wrong comment
```
### Subroutine & Variable Names
Whenever possible, use underscore to seperator words and don't use uppercase characters:
```perl
sub get_logs {}
my $start_time;
```
Keys of hash table should be used alphanumeric and underscore characters only (and no quote!):
```perl
$dogs->{meapolitan_mastiff} = 10;
```
### Curly Brackets, Parenthesis
There should be a space between every control/loop keyword and the opening parenthesis:
```perl
if ($i == 1) {
...
}
while ($i == 2) {
...
}
```
### If/Else Statements
'else', 'elsif' should be on the same line after the previous closing curly brace:
```perl
if ($i == 1) {
...
} else {
...
}
```
You can use single line if conditional:
```perl
next if ($i == 1);
```
## Model Classes Usage
---
**Introduction**
With the experience of plugin development, we have created two classes:
* centreon::plugins::templates::counter
* centreon::plugins::templates::hardware
It was developed to have a more consistent code and less redundant code. According to context, you should use one of two classes for modes.
Following classes can be used for whatever plugin type (SNMP, Custom, DBI,...).
### Class counter
#### When to use it ?
If you have some counters (CPU Usage, Memory, Session...), you should use that class.
If you have only one global counter to check, it's maybe not useful to use it (but only for these case).
#### Class methods
List of methods:
* **new**: class constructor. Overload if you need to add some specific options or to use a statefile.
* **check_options**: overload if you need to check your specific options.
* **manage_selection**: overload if *mandatory*. Method to get informations for the equipment.
* **set_counters**: overload if **mandatory**. Method to configure counters.
## Examples
---
### Example 1
We want to develop the following SNMP plugin:
* measure the current sessions and current SSL sessions usages.
```perl
package my::module::name;
use base qw(centreon::plugins::templates::counter);
use strict;
use warnings;
sub set_counters {
my ($self, %options) = @_;
$self->{maps_counters_type} = [
{ name => 'global', type => 0, message_separator => ' - ' },
];
$self->{maps_counters}->{global} = [
{ label => 'sessions', set => {
key_values => [ { name => 'sessions' } ],
output_template => 'Current sessions : %s',
perfdatas => [
{ label => 'sessions', template => '%s', min => 0 },
],
}
},
{ label => 'sessions-ssl', set => {
key_values => [ { name => 'sessions_ssl' } ],
output_template => 'Current ssl sessions : %s',
perfdatas => [
{ label => 'sessions_ssl', template => '%s', min => 0 },
],
}
},
];
}
sub manage_selection {
my ($self, %options) = @_;
# OIDs are fake. Only for the example.
my ($oid_sessions, $oid_sessions_ssl) = ('.1.2.3.4.0', '.1.2.3.5.0');
my $result = $options{snmp}->get_leef(
oids => [ $oid_sessions, $oid_sessions_ssl ],
nothing_quit => 1
);
$self->{global} = {
sessions => $result->{$oid_sessions},
sessions_ssl => $result->{$oid_sessions_ssl}
};
}
```
Output may display:
```
OK: Current sessions : 24 - Current ssl sessions : 150 | sessions=24;;;0; sessions_ssl=150;;;0;
```
As you can see, we create two arrays of hash tables in **set_counters** method. We use arrays to order the output.
* **maps_counters_type**: global configuration. Attributes list:
* *name*: the name is really important. It will be used in hash **map_counters** and also in **manage_selection** as you can see.
* *type*: 0 or 1. With 0 value, the output will be written in the short output. With the value 1, it depends if we have one or multiple instances.
* *message_multiple*: only useful with *type* 1 value. The message will be displayed in short ouput if we have multiple instances selected.
* *message_separator*: the string displayed between counters (Default: ', ').
* *cb_prefix_output*, *cb_suffix_output*: name of a method (in a string) to callback. Methods will return a string to be displayed before or after **all** counters.
* *cb_init*: name of a method (in a string) to callback. Method will return 0 or 1. With 1 value, counters are not checked.
* **maps_counters**: complex structure to configure counters. Attributes list:
* *label*: name used for threshold options.
* *threshold*: if we set the value to 0. There is no threshold check options (can be used if you want to set and check option yourself).
* *set*: hash table:
* *keys_values*: array of hashes. Set values used for the counter. Order is important (by default, the first value is used to check).
* *name*: attribute name. Need to match with attributes in **manage_selection** method!
* *diff*: if we set the value to 1, we'll have the difference between two checks (need a statefile!).
* *per_second*: if we set the value to 1, the *diff* values will be calculated per seconds (need a statefile!). No need to add diff attribute.
* *output_template*: string to display. '%s' will be replaced by the first value of *keys_values*.
* *output_use*: which value to be used in *output_template* (If not set, we use the first value of *keys_values*).
* *output_change_bytes*: if we set the value to 1 or 2, we can use a second '%s' in *output_template* to display the unit. 1 = divide by 1024 (Bytes), 2 = divide by 1000 (bits).
* *perfdata*: array of hashes. To configure perfdatas
* *label*: name displayed.
* *value*: value to used. It's the name from *keys_values*.
* *template*: value format (could be for example: '%.3f').
* *unit*: unit displayed.
* *min*, *max*: min and max displayed. You can use a value from *keys_values*.
* *label_extra_instance*: if we set the value to 1, perhaps we'll have a suffix concat with *label*.
* *instance_use*: which value from *keys_values* to be used. To be used if *label_extra_instance* is 1.
### Example 2
We want to add the current number of sessions by virtual servers.
```perl
package my::module::name;
use base qw(centreon::plugins::templates::counter);
use strict;
use warnings;
sub set_counters {
my ($self, %options) = @_;
$self->{maps_counters_type} = [
{ name => 'global', type => 0, cb_prefix_output => 'prefix_global_output' },
{ name => 'vs', type => 1, cb_prefix_output => 'prefix_vs_output', message_multiple => 'All Virtual servers are ok' }
];
$self->{maps_counters}->{global} = [
{ label => 'total-sessions', set => {
key_values => [ { name => 'sessions' } ],
output_template => 'current sessions : %s',
perfdatas => [
{ label => 'total_sessions', template => '%s', min => 0 },
],
}
},
{ label => 'total-sessions-ssl', set => {
key_values => [ { name => 'sessions_ssl' } ],
output_template => 'current ssl sessions : %s',
perfdatas => [
{ label => 'total_sessions_ssl', template => '%s', min => 0 },
],
}
},
];
$self->{maps_counters}->{vs} = [
{ label => 'sessions', set => {
key_values => [ { name => 'sessions' }, { name => 'display' } ],
output_template => 'current sessions : %s',
perfdatas => [
{ label => 'sessions', template => '%s',
min => 0, label_extra_instance => 1, instance_use => 'display' },
],
}
},
{ label => 'sessions-ssl', set => {
key_values => [ { name => 'sessions_ssl' }, { name => 'display' } ],
output_template => 'current ssl sessions : %s',
perfdatas => [
{ label => 'sessions_ssl', template => '%s',
min => 0, label_extra_instance => 1, instance_use => 'display' },
],
}
},
];
}
sub prefix_vs_output {
my ($self, %options) = @_;
return "Virtual server '" . $options{instance_value}->{display} . "' ";
}
sub prefix_global_output {
my ($self, %options) = @_;
return "Total ";
}
sub manage_selection {
my ($self, %options) = @_;
# OIDs are fake. Only for the example.
my ($oid_sessions, $oid_sessions_ssl) = ('.1.2.3.4.0', '.1.2.3.5.0');
my $result = $options{snmp}->get_leef(oids => [ $oid_sessions, $oid_sessions_ssl ],
nothing_quit => 1);
$self->{global} = { sessions => $result->{$oid_sessions},
sessions_ssl => $result->{$oid_sessions_ssl}
};
my $oid_table_vs = '.1.2.3.10';
my $mapping = {
vsName => { oid => '.1.2.3.10.1' },
vsSessions => { oid => '.1.2.3.10.2' },
vsSessionsSsl => { oid => '.1.2.3.10.3' },
};
$self->{vs} = {};
$result = $options{snmp}->get_table(oid => $oid_table_vs,
nothing_quit => 1);
foreach my $oid (keys %{$result->{ $oid_table_vs }}) {
next if ($oid !~ /^$mapping->{vsName}->{oid}\.(.*)$/;
my $instance = $1;
my $data = $options{snmp}->map_instance(mapping => $mapping, results => $result->{$oid_table_vs}, instance => $instance);
$self->{vs}->{$instance} = { display => $data->{vsName},
sessions => $data->{vsSessions}, sessions_ssl => $data->{vsSessionsSsl}};
}
}
```
If we have at least 2 virtual servers:
```
OK: Total current sessions : 24, current ssl sessions : 150 - All Virtual servers are ok | total_sessions=24;;;0; total_sessions_ssl=150;;;0; sessions_foo1=11;;;0; sessions_ssl_foo1=70;;;0; sessions_foo2=13;;;0; sessions_ssl_foo2=80;;;0;
Virtual server 'foo1' current sessions : 11, current ssl sessions : 70
Virtual server 'foo2' current sessions : 13, current ssl sessions : 80
```
### Example 3
The model can also be used to check strings (not only counters). So we want to check the status of a virtualserver.
```perl
package my::module::name;
use base qw(centreon::plugins::templates::counter);
use strict;
use warnings;
sub set_counters {
my ($self, %options) = @_;
$self->{maps_counters_type} = [
{ name => 'vs', type => 1, cb_prefix_output => 'prefix_vs_output', message_multiple => 'All Virtual server status are ok' }
];
$self->{maps_counters}->{vs} = [
{ label => 'status', threshold => 0, set => {
key_values => [ { name => 'status' }, { name => 'display' } ],
closure_custom_calc => $self->can('custom_status_calc'),
closure_custom_output => $self->can('custom_status_output'),
closure_custom_perfdata => sub { return 0; },
closure_custom_threshold_check => $self->can('custom_threshold_output')
}
}
];
}
sub custom_threshold_output {
my ($self, %options) = @_;
my $status = 'ok';
if ($self->{result_values}->{status} =~ /problem/) {
$status = 'critical';
}

The following example show 4 new attributes:
* *closure_custom_calc*: should be used to do more complex calculation.
* *closure_custom_output*: should be used to have a more complex output (An example: want to display the total, free and used value at the same time).
* *closure_custom_perfdata*: should be used to manage yourself the perfdata.
* *closure_custom_threshold_check*: should be used to manage yourself the threshold check.
