XYMONWEB(5)

💅 XYMONWEB(5) 💅

okay so bestie, this is XYMONWEB(5) from the File Formats Manual — aka the glow-up guide for your Xymon webpages. pull up a chair, we're customizing 💖

✨ NAME ✨

Xymon-Web-Templates — web page headers, footers and forms. literally the outfit your webpages wear 💅

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

okay so the Xymon webpages are somewhat customizable, and the way you do that is by editing the header- and footer-templates that live in the ~xymon/server/web/ directory. no cap 🫶

usually there's two or more files per webpage, and the lineup goes like this:

• a template_header file — that's the header for this webpage
• a template_footer file — that's the footer
• and for webpages where entry forms are used, there's also a template_form file — that's the data-entry form ✨

the one little exception is the bulletin files (more on those below 👀). but for everything else: the header files get inserted into the HTML code at the very beginning, and the footer files get inserted at the bottom. top and tail, iconic behaviour 🌈

here are all the templates you can play with, no skips, no edits:

• bulletin — okay so a bulletin_header and bulletin_footer are not shipped with Xymon, but if you make them exist, their content gets inserted into all HTML documents generated by Xymon. the bulletin_header contents show up after the normal header for the webpage, and the bulletin_footer shows up just before the normal footer for the webpage. use these to post important info about your Xymon system — like notifying users about current operational or monitoring problems. it's giving system-wide announcements, fr fr 📢
• acknowledge — header, footer and form template for the Xymon acknowledge alert webpage, generated by acknowledge.cgi(1) 🎀
• stdnormal — header and footer for the Xymon Main view webpages, generated by xymongen(1) 👑
• stdnongreen — header and footer for the Xymon All non-green view webpage, generated by xymongen(1) 🌸
• stdcritical (DEPRECATED) — header and footer for the now deprecated old critical webpage, generated by xymongen. > bestie listen: this one is deprecated, okay? you should be using the newer criticalview.cgi(1) utility instead, which uses the critical templates. don't be texting your ex 💀
• repnormal — header and footer for the Xymon Main view availability report webpages, generated by xymongen(1) when running in availability report mode 📊
• snapnormal — header and footer for the Xymon Main view snapshot webpages, generated by xymongen(1) when running in snapshot report mode 📸
• snapnongreen — header and footer for the Xymon All non-green view snapshot webpage, generated by xymongen(1) when running in snapshot report mode 📸
• columndoc — header and footer for the Xymon Column documentation webpages, generated by the csvinfo.cgi(1) utility in the default Xymon configuration 📚
• confreport — header and footer for the Xymon Configuration report webpage, generated by the confreport.cgi(1) utility. and heads up, there's also confreport_front and confreport_back templates — those get inserted into the generated report before the hostlist, and before the column documentation, respectively. so that's three templates in one vibe, we love a bundle 💖
