Monitor...hreshold(3)

okay bestie, welcome to the Monitoring::Plugin::Threshold(3) manpage — it's a user-contributed Perl doc and literally the internal class for handling thresholds in Monitoring::Plugin. let's get into it 💅

✨ NAME ✨

Monitoring::Plugin::Threshold — the iconic class for handling Monitoring::Plugin thresholds. no cap.

💅 SYNOPSIS 💅

real talk: this is an internal Monitoring::Plugin class. if you're looking for the public interfaces, you want to see Monitoring::Plugin itself, iykyk.

here's the whole thing in code form, bestie:

# NB: This is an internal Monitoring::Plugin class.
# See Monitoring::Plugin itself for public interfaces.

# Constructor
$t = Monitoring::Plugin::Threshold->set_thresholds(
    warning  => $warning_range_string,
    critical => $critical_range_string,
);

# Value checking - returns CRITICAL if in the critical range,
# WARNING if in the warning range, and OK otherwise
$status = $t->get_status($value);

# Accessors - return the associated N::P::Range object
$warning_range  = $t->warning;
$critical_range = $t->critical;

so like, set_thresholds is the constructor — you pass in warning and critical range strings and it gives you back a threshold object. then get_status($value) checks a value and returns:

• CRITICAL if it's in the critical range
• WARNING if it's in the warning range
• OK otherwise

and the accessors warning and critical return the associated N::P::Range object for each. slay. 🎀

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

okay so this is the internal Monitoring::Plugin class for handling threshold data. again, if you want the public interfaces, go see Monitoring::Plugin. this is just the behind-the-scenes bestie doing the work. 🫶

a threshold object contains (typically) a pair of ranges, associated with a particular severity. like:

warning  => range1
critical => range2

it's giving "two ranges, two severities, one iconic object". periodt. 💖
