icinga2_xmpp-notifications

Small python script to send xmpp notifications from your icinga2 monitoring system. Based on this script, but without using enviroment variables (Director compatible) and different formatting.

Dependencies

python3-slixmpp (since the previous sleekxmpp is deprecated)

In debian:

apt-get install python3-slixmpp

elsewhere probably:

pip install slixmpp

Installation

Copy xmpp-notification.py to a location of your choosing (possibly /etc/icinga2/scripts besides the default the default mail scripts, but any location might suffice. Remember to set the permissions correctly, so the icinga2 daemon is able to execute the script.

Append the content of icinga2_conf/commands.conf somewhere in your config to define the command for icinga2. Set the path according to the location of the script.

Append the content of icinga2_conf/templates.conf somewhere in your config to define the notification templates for icinga2. Set JID and the password for the XMPP-Account you want to send notifications here.

Add the customvar userjid with the JID you want to notify to the user you want to notify. A hint is in icinga2_conf/users.conf.

Caveats

Since the JID and the password for the sending account are handed over via arguments, they are visible for all users on the system who are able to get their hands on a list of running processes (most likely meaning all users). This is not ideal, but this way the script can be integrated via Director.

Notes

Improvements are welcome! Send me a PR or open an issue if you think there is a problem. Also I do owe this guy a beer!
