Prtg-sensor

Simple data generator for advanced PRTG sensors.

It will help you to generate output in JSON format for the Python Script Advanced, EXE/Script Advanced, SSH Script Advanced and HTTP Data Advanced sensors.

You can refer to the official PRTG manual to figuring out all the features of custom sensors.

Installing

Install with pip

pip install prtg-sensor

Example

Executable sensors like Python Script Advanced sensor must send the result to the stdout. HTTP Data Advanced sensor must send the result in the http response body.

from prtg_sensor import Sensor

sensor = Sensor()
sensor.add_channel('Duration', 32, unit='timeseconds')
sensor.add_channel('Loading', 12.55, unit='percent', float=1, decimal_mode='all')
sensor.add_channel('Status', 0, value_lookup='prtg.standardlookups.aws.status')
sensor.text = 'Everything is ok'
print(sensor.get_result())

PRTG interprets this result to sensor by itself
