* How It Works

  Nagios-Dashboard parses the nagios status.dat file & sends the current status to clients via an HTML5 WebSocket.

  The dashboard monitors the status.dat file for changes, any modifications trigger client updates (push).

  Nagios-Dashboard queries a Chef server or Opscode platform organization for additional host information.

* Requirements

  - Nagios http://www.nagios.org/

  - Ruby (MRI) & RubyGems http://www.ruby-lang.org/en/

  - An OpsCode Chef server or platform oranization http://opscode.com/chef/ http://opscode.com/platform/

  - Credentials to query Chef, user name & private key http://wiki.opscode.com/display/chef/Authentication

  - Two open ports, one for the UI (default is 80, can change with -p), and port 8000 for an HTML5 WebSocket

* Install

  : sudo gem install nagios-dashboard

* Run

  : -> % nagios-dashboard -h
