NAME
   Opsview::REST - Interface to the Opsview REST API

SYNOPSIS
       use Opsview::REST;

       my $ops = Opsview::REST->new(
           base_url => 'http://opsview.example.com/rest',
           user     => 'username',
           pass     => 'password',
       );

       # Check status
       my $status = $ops->status(
           'hostgroup',
           'hostgroupid' => [1, 2],
           'filter'      => 'unhandled',
       );

       # Configuration methods
       my $host1 = $ops->create_host(
           ip                  => '192.168.0.1',
           name                => 'monitoring-slave',

           name => 'another-host',
           ip   => '192.168.0.2',
       );

       # Search methods support complex SQL::Abstract queries
       my $hosts = $ops->get_hosts(
           -or => [
               name => { -like => '%.example.com' },
               ip   => { -like => '10.25.%' },
           ],
       );

       # Update several objects at once
       map { $_->{check_attempts} = 4 } @{ $hosts->{list} };
       my $response = $ops->create_or_update_hosts($hosts->{list});

       # ... or only one
       my $response = $ops->create_or_update_host(
           name         => 'host1.example.com',
           snmp_version => '2c',
       );

       # Reload after make changes in config
       $ops->reload;

DESCRIPTION
   Opsview::REST is a set of modules to access the Opsview REST API, which
   is the recommended method for scripting configuration changes or any
   other form of integration since version 3.9.0

METHODS
 new
   Return an instance of the Opsview::REST.

  Required Arguments
   base_url
       Base url where the REST API resides. By default it is under "/rest".

   user
       Username to login as.

  Other Arguments
   pass
   auth_tkt
       Either the pass or the auth_tkt MUST be passed. It will die horribly
       if none of these are found.

   ua  A user agent object can be provided here. It should be an HTTP::Tiny
       subclass.

 get($url)
   Makes a "GET" request to the API. The response is properly deserialized
   and returned as a Perl data structure.

 status( $endpoint, [ %args ] )
   Convenience method to request the "status" part of the API. $endpoint is
   the endpoint to send the query to. %args is a hash which will get
   properly translated to URL arguments.

   More info:
   <http://docs.opsview.com/doku.php?id=opsview-core:restapi:status>

 downtimes
 create_downtime( %args )
 delete_downtime( [ %args ] )
   Downtime related methods.

   More info:
   <http://docs.opsview.com/doku.php?id=opsview-core:restapi:downtimes>

 events( [ %args ] )
   Get events. An event is considered to be either:

   *   a host or service changing state

   *   a host or service result during soft failures

   *   a host or service in a failure state where 'alert every failure' is
       enabled

   More info:
   <http://docs.opsview.com/doku.php?id=opsview-core:restapi:event>

 acknowledge( [ %args ] )
   Acknowledge problems.

   More info:
   <http://docs.opsview.com/doku.php?id=opsview-core:restapi:acknowledge>

 acknowledge_list
   Lists the problems which the current logged in user has permission to
   acknowledge.

 reload
   Initiates a synchronous reload. Be careful: if your opsview reload takes
   more than 60 seconds to run, this call will time out. The returned data
   contains the info of the reload.

   More info:
   <http://docs.opsview.com/doku.php?id=opsview-core:restapi#initiating_an_
   opsview_reload>

 reload_info
   Get status of reload.

   More info:
   <http://docs.opsview.com/doku.php?id=opsview-core:restapi#initiating_an_
   opsview_reload>

 recheck( [ %args ] )
   Recheck services or hosts asynchronously. It returns info about the
   number of hosts and services that will be rechecked.

   More info:
   <http://docs.opsview.com/doku.php?id=opsview-core:restapi:recheck>

 Config methods for single objects
  get_*
  create_*
  clone_*
  create_or_update_*
  delete_*
   This methods will be generated for the following types of objects:
   "contact", "role", "servicecheck", "hosttemplate", "attribute",
   "timeperiod", "hostgroup", "servicegroup", "notificationmethod",
   "hostcheckcommand", "keyword", "monitoringserver".

   They all except "create", require the object's id. Additionally,
   "create", "clone" and "create_or_update" accept a list of key-value
   pairs:

       my $host1 = $ops->create_host(
           name => 'host1',
           ip   => '192.168.10.27',
       );

       $ops->clone_host(
           $host1->{object}->{id},
           name => 'host2',
           ip   => '192.168.10.28',
       );

       $host->delete($id);

 Config methods for multiple objects
  get_*
  create_*
  create_or_update_*
   This methods will be generated for the following types of objects:
   "contacts", "roles", "servicechecks", "hosttemplates", "attributes",
   "timeperiods", "hostgroups", "servicegroups", "notificationmethods",
   "hostcheckcommands", "keywords", "monitoringservers".

   "get" accepts complex queries in SQL::Abstract format.

   "create_or_update" is specially useful when you want to update several
   objects with a single call:

       # First get a list of objects you want to modify
       my $dbhosts = $ops->get_hosts(
           name    => { -like => 'db%' },
       );

       # $dbhosts = {
       #   summary => { ... },
       #   list => [ { name => 'db1.example.com , ... }, ... ],
       # };

       # Modify them as you need
       map { $_->{check_attempts} = 4 } @{ $dbhosts->{list} };

       # Make the call
       $ops->create_or_update($dbhosts->{list});

   the responses, and additional info:
