Hello!
if you are looking for a solution where you can hook in your own
custom scripts easily observium may not fit your needs
I disagree. With the unix agent, Observium is easily extendable. It took me just a few hours to read the source code and copy&paste/write my own and then I was graphing Minecraft players. Not that hard.
However, let's be realistic: the documentation sucks. You need to know PHP and you need to read Observium source in order to learn how to graph these things,. The unix agent itself has documentation available though and there are some basic things about graphing in the docs. But you need to do some research yourself.
But all in all, I like the structure of Observium's source code. In some parts, it's very easy to extend, and graphing is one of them.
Kind regards, Teemu Grönqvist Net9 Oy

observium uses mainly snmp to get data from devices or services. thus everything which can be polled with snmp can be monitored through observium. if you are looking for a solution where you can hook in your own custom scripts easily observium may not fit your needs.
i am not an expert observium hacker but i think that this is quite true.
