##Overview

This module will install and configure an instance of NagiosQL on your system.

##Module Description

The module can optionally manage the requirements of NagiosQL (apache, php, mysql and nagios) by setting the various parameter values. When managing nagios with this module you'll get a complete nagiosql configuration integrated with a default installation of nagios. If you decide to manage nagios from another module you'll need to add the nagios.cfg cfg_file and cfg_dir values yourself and set the appropriate permissions for the nagios binary and command file. See http://www.nagiosql.org/documentation.html#Installation.

The same goes for mysql and php. If you already manage php and apache's mod_php do not set it here but check the installation guide for required settings. Not managing mysql from this module will still create the required database and schema for you.

##Setup

###Beginning with nagiosql

class { 'nagiosql':
  admin_password => 'somesecret'
}

This will install into /var/www/nagiosql, create a database with permissions and set various configuration files. This requires:

##Usage

Installed as a virtual host

class { 'nagiosql':
  htdocs_path     => '/vhosts',
  http_vhost      => true,
  http_servername => 'nagiosql.mydomain.com',
  admin_password  => 'test1234',
  nagios_manage   => true,
}

This will install into /vhosts/nagiosql, create a database with permissions and set various configuration files. It will also install nagios and handle the nagiosql integration with it. This would probably be the best configuration for you if you intend to use nagiosql to configure your entire nagios environment.

I don't care just pile it on

class { 'nagiosql':
  mysql_manage    => true,
  php_manage      => true,
  nagios_manage   => true,
  admin_password  => 'test12345',
}

This will give you a complete working nagiosql environment out of the box. Great for testing, but you'll probably want more control over your other modules than what's given here.
