Event module for MunkiReport

Event module

Provides client messages which can come from report_broken_client or other scripts

The table provides the following information:

• type (string) Use one of 'danger', 'warning', 'info' or 'success'
• module (string) The name of the reporting module
• msg (string) a localized message identifier (will be rendered by i18n)
• data (string) optional data to add to the message
• timestamp (int) UNIX timestamp

Remarks

• Every module can only store one message. So you should only store the most relevant one.
• A newer message will overwrite the previous message.
• The content of the event table will be used to render events in a widget or send notifications

There's no client component to this module, it should be invoked by other modules.

Configuration file:

If you want to filter out certain modules or certain type of events within modules, you can use a YAML config file. The file is loaded by default from:

local/module_configs/event.yml

You can override this file location by specifying the following variable:

EVENT_CONFIG_PATH=/path/to/wherever/config.yml

Example 1:

filter:
    diskreport:

This will filter out all diskreport messages

Example 2:

filter:
    diskreport:
    munkireport:
      - warnings

This will also filter out all munkireport messages of the type warnings

The available types for filtering are danger, warning, success and info.
