Push your nagios notifications to HipChat using a simple command line tool.

Implements HipChat message API.

Inspired by https://gist.github.com/2418848.

Through pip:

pip install hipsaint

Or clone and simply run:

python setup.py install

Assuming you use Nagios 3 add the following sections to commands.cfg with <TOKEN> and <ROOM_ID> specified and macros delimited by |:

define command {
    command_name    notify-host-by-hipchat
    command_line    hipsaint --token=<TOKEN> --room=<ROOM_ID> --type=host --inputs="$HOSTNAME$|$LONGDATETIME$|$NOTIFICATIONTYPE$|$HOSTADDRESS$|$HOSTSTATE$|$HOSTOUTPUT$" -n
}
define command {
    command_name    notify-service-by-hipchat
    command_line    hipsaint --token=<TOKEN> --room=<ROOM_ID> --type=service --inputs="$SERVICEDESC$|$HOSTALIAS$|$LONGDATETIME$|$NOTIFICATIONTYPE$|$HOSTADDRESS$|$SERVICESTATE$|$SERVICEOUTPUT$" -n
}

To send less verbose messages to hipchat set the --type flag to either short-host or short-service.

Additional commands is available through:

hipsaint --help

Edit the Nagios contacts.cfg file by adding or editing an existing user and adding the notification commands created above:

define contact {
        ....
        .....
        service_notification_commands   notify-service-by-hipchat
        host_notification_commands      notify-host-by-hipchat
        email   /dev/null
}
