This directory contains a very efficient API to MK Livestatus for Python. It is directly taken from the Multisite GUI and has the following features: * It supports keep alive * It returns typed values * It support transparent multi-site access * It supports persistent connection caching * It supports parallelized queries (though still single-threaded) * It supports detection of dead sites (via "status_host") Please look at the two examples: example.py: Example for a single site example_multisite.py: Example querying several sites Both example are written to be run within an OMD instance and need no further configuration. If you are not using OMD, you need to modify the examples and enter the correct path to you livestatus socket. Or even better: give OMD a try --> omdistro.org. This will make you live *really* easier!
