This package provides a connector which listen for events on a TCP port.
Run the script on a designated port (8000
in this example) and with the URL
of the AMQP server :
.. code-block::
$ tcp2canopsis -p 8000 -a "amqp://guest:guest@localhost:5672/" -t token
Then use telnet
to publish events :
.. code-block::
$ telnet localhost 8000 Trying ::1... Connected to localhost. Escape character is '^]'. token {"connector": "test", "connector_name": "testname", "event_type": "check", "source_type": "resource", "component": "testcmp", "resource": "testrsrc", "state": 0, "output": "test output"} {"connector": "test", "connector_name": "testname", "event_type": "check", "source_type": "resource", "component": "testcmp", "resource": "testrsrc", "state": 1, "output": "test output 2"} {"connector": "test", "connector_name": "testname", "event_type": "check", "source_type": "resource", "component": "testcmp", "resource": "testrsrc", "state": 0, "output": "test output 3"} Connection closed by foreign host.
Or in a JSON file :
.. code-block:: javascript
{"tcp2canopsis": { "port": 8000, "amqp": "amqp://guest:guest@localhost:5672/", "token": "token" }}
And load the file using :
.. code-block::
$ tcp2canopsis -c path/to/config.json
Just type :
.. code-block::
$ pip install tcp2canopsis
Or, to install it in a locally :
.. code-block::
$ ./makefile
This will create a virtual Python environment in the current folder, and install the dependencies listed by requirements.txt
.
Finally, it will perform a python setup.py install
.
After executing this script, the connector will be available in the current folder (which is now a virtual Python environment).
