Meet The New Nagios Core Services Platform
Built on over 25 years of monitoring experience, the Nagios Core Services Platform provides insightful monitoring dashboards, time-saving monitoring wizards, and unmatched ease of use. Use it for free indefinitely.
Monitoring Made Magically Better
- Nagios Core on Overdrive
- Powerful Monitoring Dashboards
- Time-Saving Configuration Wizards
- Open Source Powered Monitoring On Steroids
- And So Much More!
The little known Nagios front-end API, which can be accessed via curl, is actually quite powerful if only it were more accessible. This project aims to wrap this functionality around a simple command line interface to query and command a Nagios instance as one would using the GUI. Nearly all basic functions of Nagios are working out of the box. Please comment and report bugs here or at github as they arise (and they always do ;).
Biggest thanks to my employer, Big Fish Games Inc., for allowing me to open source this project having learned everything I now know about Nagios at the time of this release.

How can you use https?
Owner's reply
Someone on github wanted this same feature and added it accordingly. It's now been merged into the mainline branch. Thanks for the suggestion!
