NAME

       appfeed.cgi - Xymon CGI feeder for Smartphone apps

SYNOPSIS

       appfeed.cgi [options]

DESCRIPTION

       appfeed.cgi is invoked as a CGI script via the appfeed.sh CGI wrapper.

       appfeed.cgi  is optionally passed a QUERY_STRING environment variable with the "filter=FILTER" parameter.
       FILTER is a filter for the "xymondboard" command sent to xymond(8) daemon. These filters are described in
       detail in the xymon(1) manual. Typically, the filter will specify hosts found on a specific (sub)page  to
       be  returned,  e.g. "filter=page=webservers" will cause appfeed.cgi to only return hosts that are present
       on the "webservers" page in Xymon.

       If no filter is specified, appfeed.cgi returns data for all red, yellow or purple statuses (equivalent to
       the data present on the "All non-green" page), or if invoked with the "--critical" option it returns data
       from the "Critical systems" page.

       The output is an XML document with the current status of the selected hosts/services.

OPTIONS

       --env=FILENAME
              Loads the environment from FILENAME before executing the CGI.

       --critical[=FILENAME]
              FILENAME specifies the "Critical Systems" configuration file (default: critical.cfg).  appfeed.cgi
              will only return the statuses currently on the "Critical Systems" view.

       --access=FILENAME
              In addition to the filtering done by the "filter"  parameter  or  the  "--critical"  option,  this
              option  limits the output to hosts that the user has access to as defined in the Apache-compatible
              group-definitions in FILENAME. See xymon-webaccess(5) for more details of this.  Note: Use of this
              option requires that access to the appfeed.cgi tool is password-protected by whatever  means  your
              webserver  software  provides,  and  that  the  login  userid  is  available  via  the REMOTE_USER
              environment variable (this is standard CGI behaviour, so all webservers should provide it  if  you
              use the webserver's built-in authentication mechanisms).
