A <a href="http://nodered.org" target="_new">Node-RED</a> node to send data to Nagios via its NSCA service.

Install
-------

Run the following command in your Node-RED user directory - typically `~/.node-red`

    npm install node-red-nagios-nsca-send

Nagios is a monitoring system. It has the NSCA service that allows data from so called passive checks to be transmitted.

This node uses allows you to send data to that NSCA service using the <b>send_nsca</b> command on your system.

The node is currently under devolpment. It does all I expect it to do. <i>Further development might take place any time or never.</i>

It is designed to run under Linux. Tested on Ubuntu 16.04 Server.
