I've got 2 IRC bot specific transports in the pipeline as well ;-)

One for a TCP connection to eggdrop, one for the all known gozerbot-and-clones udp.py.

Awesome! I've actually got a patch to the IRC bot to upstream, and this can remove some code I've modified in the alerter.

I've got the IRC bot to send alerts to a specific channel, currently doing it via named pipes between alerter and the IRC bot.

Hi Spencer,

r7272 added a script execution transport, that should do the trick for you - and others who have requested similar things.

Things still need to be documented, but here's how it works:

- Add alert contact of type "external program"
- Set endpoint to script::/usr/local/bin/myobserviumrox.sh

In the script (or binary if you're into compiling) you 'll have access to a set of environment variables:

OBSERVIUM_ALERT_STATE
OBSERVIUM_ALERT_URL
OBSERVIUM_ALERT_ID
OBSERVIUM_ALERT_MESSAGE
OBSERVIUM_CONDITIONS
OBSERVIUM_METRICS
OBSERVIUM_DURATION
OBSERVIUM_ENTITY_LINK
OBSERVIUM_ENTITY_NAME
OBSERVIUM_ENTITY_TYPE
OBSERVIUM_ENTITY_DESCRIPTION
OBSERVIUM_ENTITY_GRAPHS
OBSERVIUM_DEVICE_HOSTNAME
OBSERVIUM_DEVICE_LINK
OBSERVIUM_DEVICE_HARDWARE
OBSERVIUM_DEVICE_OS
OBSERVIUM_DEVICE_LOCATION
OBSERVIUM_DEVICE_UPTIME

Exit code of the script determines if Observium considers the alert to be successful or not: 0 is OK, anything else isn't.

Would it be possible to add a local file option to the providers for a contact?

There are situations where we would like to manipulate the data with a script of our own based on triggered alerts and recoveries and instead of mucking around the DB by hand having Observium write out the alerts to a file would be the easiest. Maybe just have it take a path and just >> the alert contents to whatever the user enters?
