PresideCMS Extension: Zabbix Reporting APIs For PresideCMS

v1.2.14 Preside Extensions

PresideCMS Extension: Zabbix Statistics Reporter

This is an extension for PresideCMS that provides configuration and an API for reporting to Zabbix.

The extension relies on Zabbix Agent being installed on the server running the preside application.

Configuration

The extension provides a system configuration screen that allows you to configure:

  • Sender executable: Path to the zabbix_sender, e.g. /usr/bin/zabbix_sender
  • Remote server: Hostname or IP address of remote Zabbix server that will receive data
  • Remote port: Port of the remote Zabbix server that will receive data (default is 10051)
  • Zabbix Hostname: The hostname of the host, as configured in Zabbix, that all data will be recorded against

API

Direct sending of data

The extension provides a single API method through the ZabbixSender service, send( data, keyPrefix="presidecms" ). Example usage:

component {
    property name="zabbixSender" inject="zabbixSender";
    property name="syncService"  inject="syncService";

    function sendSyncStatsToZabbix() {
        zabbixSender.send( data={
              syncfailures = syncService.getFailureCount()
            , syncqueued   = syncService.getQueueCount()
            , synctotal    = syncService.getTotalProcessedCount()
        } );
    }
}

All sent data keys are prefixed by default with "presidecms". In the example above, the following variables would be sent to Zabbix: presidecms[syncfailures], presidecms[syncqueued], presidecms[synctotal].

Provided scheduled task

A scheduled task (requires the Taskmanager preside extension) is supplied that announces a onCollectSystemStats interception point in order to gather statistics from the application. To provide statistics in this way, listen for the interception point with an interceptor, e.g.

component {

    property name="taskManagerService" inject="delayedInjector:taskmanagerService";

    public void function configure() output=false {
        return;
    }

// listeners
    public void function onCollectSystemStats( event, interceptData ) {
        interceptData[ "taskmanager_failure_count" ] = taskManagerService.getFailureCount();
        // etc.
    }

}

Logging

The extension defines a 'zabbixSender' logbox logger that, by default, logs to (yourapp)/logs/zabbix-sender.log. Warnings, errors and sending info will be recorded here.
