Like last year we will be present at the (new) Icinga Summit in Berlin: On the second day we offer the workshop Write your own monitoring plugin in Python using the Linuxfabrik Libraries.
Starting with the example plugin, we will develop a monitoring plugin from scratch in 90 minutes. We will discuss the general structure, discuss the Linuxfabrik Python libraries and use them to extend the plugin step by step until it offers some advanced features and can be tested with unit tests. Of course, the structure of the README file - the most important file of any plugin - will also be practiced.
The workshop is based on the standards and procedures of the CONTRIBUTING file of the Linuxfabrik Monitoring Plugins project. Basic knowledge of Python is helpful.
See you in Berlin. 🙂
