Intermediate data API
=====================
The following classes allow to handle intermediate data that are used during the
plugin's execution in a structured way. Most of them are used by the
:mod:`nagiosplugin` library itself to create objects which are passed into
code written by plugin authors. Other classes (like
:class:`~nagiosplugin.metric.Metric`) are used by plugin authors to generate
intermediate data during :term:`acquisition` or :term:`evaluation` steps.
.. note::
All classes that plugin authors typically need are imported directly into the
:mod:`nagiosplugin` name space. For example, use ::
import nagiosplugin
# ...
result = nagiosplugin.Result(nagiosplugin.Ok)
to get a :class:`~nagiosplugin.result.Result` instance.
nagiosplugin.metric
-------------------
.. automodule:: nagiosplugin.metric
:no-members:
.. autoclass:: Metric
.. automethod:: __new__
.. automethod:: __str__
nagiosplugin.state
------------------
.. automodule:: nagiosplugin.state
:no-members:
.. autoclass:: ServiceState
.. automethod:: __str__
.. automethod:: __int__
.. note::
:class:`ServiceState` is not imported into the :mod:`nagiosplugin`
top-level name space since there is usually no need to access it directly.
.. autofunction:: nagiosplugin.state.worst
State subclasses
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
The state subclasses are singletons. Plugin authors should use the class
name (without parentheses) to access the instance. For example::
state = nagiosplugin.Critical
.. autoclass:: nagiosplugin.state.Ok
.. autoclass:: nagiosplugin.state.Warn
.. autoclass:: nagiosplugin.state.Critical
.. autoclass:: nagiosplugin.state.Unknown
nagiosplugin.performance
------------------------
.. automodule:: nagiosplugin.performance
:no-members:
.. autoclass:: Performance
.. automethod:: __new__
.. automethod:: __str__
nagiosplugin.range
------------------
.. automodule:: nagiosplugin.range
:no-members:
.. autoclass:: Range
.. automethod:: __new__
.. automethod:: __str__
.. automethod:: __repr__
nagiosplugin.result
-------------------
.. automodule:: nagiosplugin.result
:no-members:
.. autoclass:: Result
.. automethod:: __new__
.. automethod:: __str__
.. autoclass:: ScalarResult
.. autoclass:: Results
.. automethod:: __iter__
.. automethod:: __len__
.. automethod:: __getitem__
.. automethod:: __contains__
