Step 2
Paste the below script in the spike.sh file.
#!/bin/bash
# Notify via Spike.sh
​
# In order to use this script:
# - copy it into your site into ~/local/share/check_mk/notificaions
# - make sure it is executable
# - Modify the spike webhook url into SPIKE_URL=
# - Create a notification rule that makes use of the new plugin
​
​
curl --header "Content-Type: application/json" \
  --request POST \
  --data '{"OMD_ROOT" : "'"$OMD_ROOT"'","OMD_SITE" : "'"$OMD_SITE"'","NOTIFY_WHAT" : "'"$NOTIFY_WHAT"'","NOTIFY_CONTACTNAME" : "'"$NOTIFY_CONTACTNAME"'","NOTIFY_CONTACTEMAIL" : "'"$NOTIFY_CONTACTEMAIL"'","NOTIFY_CONTACTPAGER" : "'"$NOTIFY_CONTACTPAGER"'","NOTIFY_DATE" : "'"$NOTIFY_DATE"'","NOTIFY_LONGDATETIME" : "'"$NOTIFY_LONGDATETIME"'","NOTIFY_SHORTDATETIME" : "'"$NOTIFY_SHORTDATETIME"'","NOTIFY_HOSTNAME" : "'"$NOTIFY_HOSTNAME"'","NOTIFY_HOSTOUTPUT" : "'"$NOTIFY_HOSTOUTPUT"'","NOTIFY_HOSTSTATE" : "'"$NOTIFY_HOSTSTATE"'","NOTIFY_NOTIFICATIONTYPE" : "'"$NOTIFY_NOTIFICATIONTYPE"'","NOTIFY_PARAMETERS" : "'"$NOTIFY_PARAMETERS"'","NOTIFY_PARAMETER_1" : "'"$NOTIFY_PARAMETER_1"'","NOTIFY_PARAMETER_2" : "'"$NOTIFY_PARAMETER_2"'","NOTIFY_SERVICEDESC" : "'"$NOTIFY_SERVICEDESC"'","NOTIFY_SERVICEOUTPUT" : "'"$NOTIFY_SERVICEOUTPUT"'","NOTIFY_SERVICESTATE" : "'"$NOTIFY_SERVICESTATE"'"}' \
  "$SPIKE_URL"
Step 3
Export the spike webhook in an environment variable as:
$ export SPIKE_URL="https://hooks.spike.sh/********************/push-events"
Step 4
Do this step once the checkmk docker container is up.
Get the container id using docker ps
Copy the spike.sh file inside the docker container at the location /opt/omd/sites/cmk/local/share/check_mk/notifications# using the following command.
replace the <CONTAINER_ID> with the container id you got from docker ps.
$ docker cp spike.sh <CONTAINER_ID>:/opt/omd/sites/cmk/local/share/check_mk/notifications/spike.sh
Step 5
Now exec into the docker container.
$ docker exec -it <CONTAINER_ID> /bin/bash
Make the spike.sh executable.
$ cd /opt/omd/sites/cmk/local/share/check_mk/notifications
$ chmod +x spike.sh
Step 6
Export the spike webhook in an environment variable as:
$ export SPIKE_URL="https://hooks.spike.sh/********************/push-events"
