Hi !

During Centreon Summit, @omercier  used a command line tool for automating service discovery with Ansible.

This tool is CentCTL. Developed in Golang by YPSI, it can be used on Windows, Linux and MacOS systems.It can manage several instances of Centreon with a single command.

Whether you want to import, export resources or manage Centreon in real time, CentCTL offers a simple interface, with built-in help.

It uses Centreon's APIv1 and APIv2 and manages platforms from 2.8 version to the latest version.

What are the use cases?

You want to export the elements of a production platform to a test platform ? In a single command, the entire configuration is exported and imported to Centreon Target.

Automate a check or a submit by a script in Powershell? This is also possible with CentCTL under Windows.

Multiple output formats are also available like CSV, YAML or JSon.

You can download the Opensource version at https://github.com/YPSI-SAS/centctl

Please don't hesitate to send us feedback of your CentCtl usage!
