Integrating Jenkins and Nagios

[Kane Bonnette]

Hello,

 

We have a Nagios server set up, and we were hoping to use this script (https://github.com/Ericbla/check_jenkins/blob/master/check_jenkins_job_time.pl) to monitor jenkins with Nagios. However, this script seems to only track completed jobs; the data we want to monitor is queue length and how long a current build has been going. However, checking the Jenkins API (https://builds.apache.org/api/), this information doesn’t seem to be exposed. Is there another way to remotely get this information, or are we stuck?

I think https://builds.apache.org/queue/api/xml?tree=items is a good
start --- you want to monitor the # of <item/> in that thing.

It's probably a good idea to expose the queue length itself from this
endpoint. I'll add that change.
