matrix-server-chain-check

Description

This check-plugin complies to the monitoring plugin development guidelines, and is therefore compatible with Nagios, Icinga, Zabbix, CheckMK, etc.

This is a chain check for testing connectivity between two matrix servers, written in Go. The check sends a message to a (remote) room (on the other server) with one user (the sending user) and the other user (the receiving user) checks if the message contains the same message it should receive.

Usage

Flags you have to set to use this check:

Required-Flags

• -sending-homeserver (here you have to specify the matrix server, which contains the sending user that you´ve registered.)
• -sending-username (here you have to specify the username, that you have registered for your user, on the sending homeserver)
• -sending-password (here you have to specify the password, that you have entered with the registration of your sending user)
• -receiving-homeserver (here you have to specify the matrix server, which contains the receiving user that you´ve registered.)
• -receiving-username (here you have to specify the username, that you have registered for your user, on the receiving homeserver)
• -receiving-password (here you have to specify the password, that you have entered with the registration of your sending user)
• -room-id (here you have to specify the room-id where you want to send you message, that will be checked)

Optional Flags

• -timeout (here you can specify the timeout in seconds, when theres no matching message)

The output of this check-plugin will be handled by the go-monitoringplugin. So you dont need to prettify or do something else to implement this in your monitoring system.
