Nagios logs format customization

[Lorenzo Cavassa]

We want to change style of logs generated by Nagios and make customization in it.

Our idea to achieve it:
1. Define new command example:

define command{
command_name notify-service-to-json
command_line /bin/echo '{ "NotificationType" : "$NOTIFICATIONTYPE$", "Service" : "$SERVICEDESC$", "Host": "$HOSTALIAS$", "Address": "$HOSTADDRESS$", "State": "$SERVICESTATE$", "DateTime": "$LONGDATETIME$", "AdditionalInfo": "$SERVICEOUTPUT$ }' >> /var/log/nagios_json.log
}

2. Define new contact (eg. Admin_json) with ability to define service/host notification commands:

define contact{
contact_name admin_json
alias Root
service_notification_period 24x7
host_notification_period 24x7
service_notification_options w,u,c,r
host_notification_options d,r
service_notification_commands notify-host-by-json
host_notification_commands notify-host-by-json
email root@localhost
}

3. Ability to add newly created contact into contact group “admins”

define contactgroup{
contactgroup_name admins
alias Nagios Administrators
members root, admin_json
}
