CSVINFO.CGI(1) General Commands Manual CSVINFO.CGI(1) NAME csvinfo.cgi - CGI program to show host information from a CSV file SYNOPSIS csvinfo.cgi DESCRIPTION csvinfo.cgi is invoked as a CGI script via the csvinfo.sh CGI wrapper. Based on the parameters it receives, it searches a comma- separated file for the matching host, and presents the information found as a table. csvinfo.cgi is passed a QUERY_STRING environment variable with the follow- ing parameters: key (string to search for, typically hostname) column (columnnumber to search - default 0) db (name of the CSV database file in $XYMONHOME/etc/, default hostinfo.csv) delimiter (delimiter character for columns, default semi-colon) CSV files are easily created from e.g. spreadsheets, by exporting them in CSV format. You should have one host per line, with the first line contain- ing the column headings. Despite their name, the default delimiter for CSV files is the semi-colon - if you need a different delimiter, invoke csv- info.cgi with the "delimiter=<character>" in the query string. Example usage This example shows how you can use the csvinfo CGI. It assumes you have a CSV-formatted file with information about the hosts stored as $XYMON- HOME/etc/hostinfo.csv, and the hostname is in the first column of the file. Use with the xymongen --docurl The --docurl option to xymongen(1) sets up all of the hostnames on your Xymon webpages to act as links to a CGI script. To invoke the csvinfo CGI script, run xymongen with the option --docurl=/cgi-bin/csvinfo.sh?db=hostinfo.csv&key=%s SEE ALSO hosts.cfg(5), xymonserver.cfg(5), xymongen(1) Xymon Version 4.3.30: 4 Sep 2019 CSVINFO.CGI(1)
