## Description

Arborist is a monitoring toolkit that follows the UNIX philosophy
of small parts and loose coupling for stability, reliability, and
customizability.

This adds SNMP support to Arborist's monitoring, for things such as:

 - Disk space capacity
 - System load
 - Free memory
 - Swap in use
 - Running process checks


## Prerequisites

* Ruby 2.2 or better


## Installation

    $ gem install arborist-snmp


## Usage

In this example, we've created a resource node under an existing host, like so:

	Arborist::Host( 'example' ) do
		description "Example host"
		address     '10.6.0.169'
		resource 'load', description: 'machine load' do
			config load_error_at: 5
		end
	end


From a monitor file, require this library, and create an snmp instance.
You can reuse a single instance, or create individual ones per monitor.

	require 'arborist/monitor/snmp'

	Arborist::Monitor '5 minute load average check' do
		every 30.seconds
		match type: 'resource', category: 'load'
		include_down true
		use :addresses

		snmp = Arborist::Monitor::SNMP.new( mode: 'load', load_error_at: 10 )
		exec( snmp )
	end

Please see the rdoc for all the mode types and error_at options.  Per
node "config" vars override global defaults when instantiating the
monitor.
