Zabbix Slack Alert Script

#!/bin/bash

# Slack incoming web-hook URL and user name
url=$1      # example: url='https://hooks.slack.com/services/QW3R7Y/D34DC0D3/BCADFGabcDEF123'
username='Zabbix'

## Values received by this script:
# To = $1 / Slack channel or user to send the message to, specified in the Zabbix web interface; "@username" or "#channel"
# Subject = $2 / subject of the message sent by Zabbix; by default, it is usually something like "(Problem|Resolved): Lack of free swap space on Zabbix server"
# Message = $3 / message body sent by Zabbix; by default, it is usually approximately 4 lines detailing the specific trigger involved
# Alternate URL = $4 (optional) / alternative Slack.com web-hook URL to replace the above hard-coded one; useful when multiple groups have seperate Slack teams
# Proxy = $5 (optional) / proxy host including port (such as "example.com:8080")

# Get the user/channel ($1), subject ($2), and message ($3)
to="$2"
subject="$3"
message="$4"

# Change message emoji and notification color depending on the subject indicating whether it is a trigger going in to problem state or recovering
recoversub='^RECOVER(Y|ED)?$|^OK$|^Resolved.*'
problemsub='^PROBLEM.*|^Problem.*'
