* Use the `icinga2 console` to test basic functionality (e.g. iterating over a dictionary)
|
||||
* Build them step-by-step. You can always refactor your code later on.
|
||||
|
||||
#### Register and Use Global Functions <a id="use-functions-global-register"></a>
|
||||
|
||||
[Functions](17-language-reference.md#functions) can be registered into the global scope. This allows custom functions being available
|
||||
in objects and other functions. Keep in mind that these functions are not marked
|
||||
as side-effect-free and as such are not available via the REST API.
|
||||
|
||||
Add a new configuration file `functions.conf` and include it into the [icinga2.conf](04-configuring-icinga-2.md#icinga2-conf)
|
||||
configuration file in the very beginning, e.g. after `constants.conf`. You can also manage global
|
||||
functions inside `constants.conf` if you prefer.
|
||||
|
||||
The following function converts a given state parameter into a returned string value. The important
|
||||
bits for registering it into the global scope are:
|
||||
|
||||
* `globals.<unique_function_name>` adds a new globals entry.
|
||||
* `function()` specifies that a call to `state_to_string()` executes a function.
|
||||
* Function parameters are defined inside the `function()` definition.
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
globals.state_to_string = function(state) {
|
||||
if (state == 2) {
|
||||
return "Critical"
|
||||
} else if (state == 1) {
|
||||
return "Warning"
|
||||
} else if (state == 0) {
|
||||
return "OK"
|
||||
} else if (state == 3) {
|
||||
return "Unknown"
|
||||
} else {
|
||||
log(LogWarning, "state_to_string", "Unknown state " + state + " provided.")
|
||||
}
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
The else-condition allows for better error handling. This warning will be shown in the Icinga 2
|
||||
log file once the function is called.
|
||||
|
||||
> **Note**
|
||||
>
|
||||
> If these functions are used in a distributed environment, you must ensure to deploy them
|
||||
> everywhere needed.
|
||||
|
||||
In order to test-drive the newly created function, restart Icinga 2 and use the [debug console](11-cli-commands.md#cli-command-console)
|
||||
to connect to the REST API.
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
$ ICINGA2_API_PASSWORD=icinga icinga2 console --connect 'https://root@localhost:5665/'
|
||||
Icinga 2 (version: v2.8.1-373-g4bea6d25c)
|
||||
<1> => globals.state_to_string(1)
|
||||
"Warning"
|
||||
<2> => state_to_string(2)
|
||||
"Critical"
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
You can see that this function is now registered into the [global scope](17-language-reference.md#variable-scopes). The function call
|
||||
`state_to_string()` can be used in any object at static config compile time or inside runtime
|
||||
lambda functions.
|
||||
|
||||
The following service object example uses the service state and converts it to string output.
|
||||
The function definition is not optimized and is enrolled for better readability including a log message.
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
object Service "state-test" {
|
||||
check_command = "dummy"
|
||||
host_name = NodeName
|
||||
|
||||
vars.dummy_state = 2
|
||||
|
||||
vars.dummy_text = {{
|
||||
var h = macro("$host.name$")
|
||||
var s = macro("$service.name$")
|
||||
|
||||
var state = get_service(h, s).state
|
||||
|
||||
log(LogInformation, "dummy_state", "Host: " + h + " Service: " + s + " State: " + state)
|
||||
|
||||
return state_to_string(state)
|
||||
}}
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
#### Use Custom Functions as Attribute <a id="custom-functions-as-attribute"></a>
|
||||
|
||||
To use custom functions as attributes, the function must be defined in a
|
||||
slightly unexpected way. The following example shows how to assign values
|
||||
depending on group membership. All hosts in the `slow-lan` host group use 300
|
||||
as value for `ping_wrta`, all other hosts use 100.
|
||||
|
||||
globals.group_specific_value = function(group, group_value, non_group_value) {
|
||||
return function() use (group, group_value, non_group_value) {
|
||||
if (group in host.groups) {
|
||||
return group_value
|
||||
} else {
|
||||
return non_group_value
|
||||
}
|
||||
}
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
apply Service "ping4" {
|
||||
import "generic-service"
|
||||
check_command = "ping4"
|
||||
|
||||
vars.ping_wrta = group_specific_value("slow-lan", 300, 100)
|
||||
vars.ping_crta = group_specific_value("slow-lan", 500, 200)
|
||||
|
||||
assign where true
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
#### Use Functions in Assign Where Expressions <a id="use-functions-assign-where"></a>
|
||||
|
||||
If a simple expression for matching a name or checking if an item
|
||||
exists in an array or dictionary does not fit, you should consider
|
||||
writing your own global [functions](17-language-reference.md#functions).
|
||||
You can call them inside `assign where` and `ignore where` expressions
|
||||
for [apply rules](03-monitoring-basics.md#using-apply-expressions) or
|
||||
[group assignments](03-monitoring-basics.md#group-assign-intro) just like
|
||||
any other global functions for example [match](18-library-reference.md#global-functions-match).
|
||||
|
||||
The following example requires the host `myprinter` being added
|
||||
to the host group `printers-lexmark` but only if the host uses
|
||||
a template matching the name `lexmark*`.
|
||||
|
||||
template Host "lexmark-printer-host" {
|
||||
vars.printer_type = "Lexmark"
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
object Host "myprinter" {
|
||||
import "generic-host"
|
||||
import "lexmark-printer-host"
|
||||
|
||||
address = "192.168.1.1"
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
/* register a global function for the assign where call */
|
||||
globals.check_host_templates = function(host, search) {
|
||||
/* iterate over all host templates and check if the search matches */
|
||||
for (tmpl in host.templates) {
|
||||
if (match(search, tmpl)) {
|
||||
return true
|
||||
}
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
/* nothing matched */
|
||||
return false
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
object HostGroup "printers-lexmark" {
|
||||
display_name = "Lexmark Printers"
|
||||
/* call the global function and pass the arguments */
|
||||
assign where check_host_templates(host, "lexmark*")
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
Take a different more complex example: All hosts with the
|
||||
custom attribute `vars_app` as nested dictionary should be
|
||||
added to the host group `ABAP-app-server`. But only if the
|
||||
`app_type` for all entries is set to `ABAP`.
|
||||
|
||||
It could read as wildcard match for nested dictionaries:
|
||||
|
||||
where host.vars.vars_app["*"].app_type == "ABAP"
|
||||
|
||||
The solution for this problem is to register a global
|
||||
function which checks the `app_type` for all hosts
|
||||
with the `vars_app` dictionary.
|
||||
|
||||
object Host "appserver01" {
|
||||
check_command = "dummy"
|
||||
vars.vars_app["ABC"] = { app_type = "ABAP" }
|
||||
}
|
||||
object Host "appserver02" {
|
||||
check_command = "dummy"
|
||||
vars.vars_app["DEF"] = { app_type = "ABAP" }
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
globals.check_app_type = function(host, type) {
|
||||
/* ensure that other hosts without the custom attribute do not match */
|
||||
if (typeof(host.vars.vars_app) != Dictionary) {
|
||||
return false
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
/* iterate over the vars_app dictionary */
|
||||
for (key => val in host.vars.vars_app) {
|
||||
/* if the value is a dictionary and if contains the app_type being the requested type */
|
||||
if (typeof(val) == Dictionary && val.app_type == type) {
|
||||
return true
|
||||
}
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
/* nothing matched */
|
||||
return false
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
object HostGroup "ABAP-app-server" {
|
||||
assign where check_app_type(host, "ABAP")
|
||||
}
