Wormly API - manipulate alert recipients

wormly-api.sh

# Choose a host which is configured to use host-specific alert recipients.
# You will find the Host ID in small gray text next to its' name on the 
# Host Overview page (wormly.com/answers/sid/63/topicid/13).

# Now, prepare some environment variables:

export HOSTID=12345
export WORMLY_API_KEY=<Insert your API key here>

# First, check to see if you can read the alert matrix
# for the host you chose:

curl --silent "https://api.wormly.com/?key=$WORMLY_API_KEY&response=xml&cmd=getAlertMatrix&mode=HOST&hostid=$HOSTID"

# You should see a small XML document with a <matrix> element
# Keep an eye out for errors - remember that the host you select 
# must be configured with host-specific alert recipients

# Now we'll fetch the alert matrix from the API and store it 
# in an environment variable:

export ALERTMATRIX=`curl --silent "https://api.wormly.com/?key=$WORMLY_API_KEY&response=php&cmd=getAlertMatrix&mode=HOST&hostid=$HOSTID" | \
php -r 'echo unserialize(file_get_contents("php://stdin"))->matrix;'`

# Verify that the matrix was successfully retreived and stored:

echo $ALERTMATRIX

# Now, find the ID of the host to which we want to apply this alert matrix:

export HOSTID=98765 

# And make the setAlertMatrix API call:

curl -i --silent "https://api.wormly.com/?key=$WORMLY_API_KEY&response=xml&cmd=setAlertMatrix&mode=HOST&hostid=$HOSTID" \
--data-urlencode matrix=$ALERTMATRIX

# Again, keep an eye out for a 200 OK response code, 
# otherwise inspect the error message.

# Verify that the change was made:

curl --silent "https://api.wormly.com/?key=$WORMLY_API_KEY&response=xml&cmd=getAlertMatrix&mode=HOST&hostid=$HOSTID"

# You can also verify the change within the Wormly web interface.
