WORK IN PROGRESS

Nag yourself to fix anything broken, by running Nagios plugins for you:

go install github.com/garthk/nag
nag list
nag run

You'll love it so much, you'll run it every time you open a terminal:

echo "$(which nag) check" >> ~/.profile

Or, you'll just leave it running:

watch nag check

CHECK ALL THE THINGS!

Try Nag out in Docker:

• docker run -t -i ubuntu:trusty bash
• apt-get update
• apt-get install nagios-nrpe-server
• Ok, you got me. I need to get Travis working with GitHub releases first.

If you prefer precise, apt-get install dialog nagios-nrpe-server to avoid spam during installation.

I designed Nag for:

• Operators who need to know if they fixed it now, not when Nagios next decides to poll

• Anyone developing or maintaining Nagios plugins, especially if they are learning Nagios

nag, v: harrass someone to do something

Think of your operators as frustrated Parent Shaped Objects trying to get you through your morning routine:

• /usr/local/lib/nagios/plugins/check_brushed_teeth
• /usr/local/lib/nagios/plugins/check_cleaned_shoes
• /usr/local/lib/nagios/plugins/check_made_bed
• /usr/local/lib/nagios/plugins/check_put_away_toys

Besides, Ubuntu's automatic package finder couldn't find anything:

No command 'nag' found, did you mean:
... 8 items, none called nag ...
nag: command not found

• nag run executables
• nag run commands
• nag run in one or all containers via docker exec
• nag run on another host via ssh
• automatic production of NRPE configuration
• automatic production of Nagios configuration
