Nagios plugins and test code for EIDA services

Scripts to check EIDA service from a Nagios system or from the command line.

Overview

This package provides the needed tools to check if different EIDA services are working properly. It follows the standard specification to develop Nagios plugins, but can also be used from the command line as a regular executable.

check_EIDA_auth

This utility lets you check an EIDA auth endpoint by presenting a token and trying to authenticate.

A typical help message from check_EIDA_auth looks like the following:

$ check_EIDA_auth -h
usage: check_EIDA_auth [-h] [-H HOSTNAME | -u URL] [-t TIMEOUT]
                       [-a AUTHENTICATION] [-V] [-v]
