CheckLib: A simple wrapper to make implementing Nagios/Icinga checks in Python
simple
===

TODO: Write a reasonable Readme :-)

Documentation
---

Probably only as a part of source code. Currently it is short and aimed
at Python developers anyway.

The primary target are plugins for Icinga 2.

Documentation of plugin API is at TODO and TODO.

Project goals (and non-goals)
----

The aim is to make writing _simple_ Python checks _really_ easy, and also to be
lightweight. Therefore, only basic and common features will likely be
implemented. (And last but not least, it mainly depends on my time :-))

If you need a fully-featured library, feel free to use
[Nagiosplugin](https://pypi.org/project/nagiosplugin/).

I would like to keep this as a pure vanilla Python code. It lowers the barrier
to code inspection and contribution and does not add dependencies, so that this
can be used in very limited environments.

The exact scope is currently not rigorously defined, feel free to contact me
if you are not sure.

Bugs, feedback, ideas, patches, contact &c.
-----
Please send anything you have on your mind to
[checklib@pokemon.ledoian.cz](mailto:checklib@pokemon.ledoian.cz).

I currently want to know if anyone else has tried to use the code :-)

(For patches you can use `git send-email` (TODO link to Drew DeVault's site))

Licence
----

Currently the code is just dumb implementation of the plugin spec,
so there is little creative value. So WTFPL it is for now. (I might decide to
change it later. Also, if any contributor comes by, they can steer the
direction. I want to keep this as Free Software, though)[^Wrote me when this
project was marked as private :-)]

(TODO: Proper licencing, maybe even SPDX info)
