APPFEED.CGI(1)		     General Commands Manual		  APPFEED.CGI(1)

NAME
     appfeed.cgi - Xymon CGI feeder for Smartphone apps

SYNOPSIS
     appfeed.cgi [options]

DESCRIPTION
     appfeed.cgi is invoked as a CGI script via the appfeed.sh CGI wrapper.

     appfeed.cgi  is  optionally passed a QUERY_STRING environment variable with
     the "filter=FILTER" parameter. FILTER is a  filter  for  the  "xymondboard"
     command  sent to xymond(8) daemon. These filters are described in detail in
     the xymon(1) manual. Typically, the filter will specify hosts  found  on  a
     specific (sub)page to be returned, e.g. "filter=page=webservers" will cause
     appfeed.cgi  to only return hosts that are present on the "webservers" page
     in Xymon.

     If no filter is specified, appfeed.cgi returns data for all red, yellow  or
     purple  statuses  (equivalent  to	the  data present on the "All non-green"
     page), or if invoked with the "--critical" option it returns data from  the
     "Critical systems" page.

     The  output  is  an  XML  document  with the current status of the selected
     hosts/services.

OPTIONS
     --env=FILENAME
	    Loads the environment from FILENAME before executing the CGI.

     --critical[=FILENAME]
	    FILENAME specifies the "Critical Systems"  configuration  file  (de-
	    fault:  critical.cfg).   appfeed.cgi  will	only return the statuses
	    currently on the "Critical Systems" view.

     --access=FILENAME
	    In addition to the filtering done by the "filter" parameter  or  the
	    "--critical" option, this option limits the output to hosts that the
	    user has access to as defined in the Apache-compatible group-defini-
	    tions  in FILENAME. See xymon-webaccess(5) for more details of this.
	    Note: Use of this option requires that  access  to	the  appfeed.cgi
	    tool is password-protected by whatever means your webserver software
	    provides, and that the login userid is available via the REMOTE_USER
	    environment  variable  (this  is standard CGI behaviour, so all web-
	    servers should provide it if you use the  webserver's  built-in  au-
	    thentication mechanisms).
