check_brandmeister

Simple plugin for [nagios]-compatible monitoring systems to check ham-radio repeater status on the [BrandMeister] network.

It verifies the last time a ham-radio repeater was seen on the [BrandMeister] network using [BrandMeister]'s API and compares the number of seconds elapsed to thresholds for Warning or Critical state. Tested with [LibreNMS].

Installation

Build the executable and install it in your nagios plugin folder.

Example: cargo install check_brandmeister sudo mv $HOME/.cargo/bin /usr/lib/nagios/plugins/

If you do not want to compile, you may find pre-built binaries on the releases page
