This might be useful if we want to support other UIs like Thruk.

moving main issue to next milestone (history). config and status queries are working, based on that list: https://wiki.icinga.org/display/icinga2/Livestatus#Livestatus-Attributes (primary tests with thruk)

Hi,

I guess this is the proper place to ask about the current status of the livestatus component? :-) If not, apologies!

I wrote a benchmarking tool (reusing part of what Sven did for its tests) that makes use of the livestatus API. Unfortunately, some of the most important info (like the service_checks for example) are missing, as reported on the link you give above. I was wondering if you had the slightest idea when they will be implemented?

In any case, it all looks extremely promising and I am looking forward to test it further! Congrats! :-)

If you mean the historical tables, those are postponed until there's a solution found for the historical backend (as well as the events triggering historical stuff).

the config and status tables are working so far. so in terms of querying a service for its current state and check output, you'll get your results.

No I mean the status table which is half empty as of now (https://wiki.icinga.org/display/icinga2/Livestatus#Livestatus-StatusTable)

that's livestatus specific stuff intercepting the callbacks for servicechecksin icinga 1.x.
since they do not exist in icinga2 (checks will be delegated and executed in a different manner) those counters remain useless (or will be 0 if the current master does not execute any checks if we would find an event "service has been checked" to count for).

generally speaking, all options have been evaluated if they make sense in the icinga2 architecture. those with an (x) are currently not supported.

though, retrieving such statistics might be necessary in the future, but is handled in a different issue #3598

oops, indeed, this other ticket might have been more appropriate to post, sorry.

In any case, if I can give my opinion as a lambda user (and even if I have a good idea of how complicated this is for the implementation :-) ), it would be cool to be able to get global statistics easily (in addition to the per-instance one).
