Sensu Bind DNS Metrics Check

Overview

The Sensu Bind DNS metrics check is a metrics handler that pulls metrics from bind DNS name servers. It can read the metrics from the statistics file, HTTP XML port or HTTP JSON port.

Functionality

After successfully creating a project from this template, update the Config struct with any configuration options for the plugin, map those values as plugin options in the variable options, and customize the checkArgs and executeCheck functions in main.go.

When writing or updating a plugin's README from this template, review the Sensu Community plugin README style guide for content suggestions and guidance. Remove everything prior to # Bind DNS Server Metrics Check from the generated README file, and add additional context about the plugin per the style guide.

Releases with Github Actions

To release a version of your project, simply tag the target sha with a semver release without a v prefix (ex. 1.0.0). This will trigger the GitHub action workflow to build and release the plugin with goreleaser. Register the asset with Bonsai to share it with the community!
