nsclient calling external python scripts how to

[joaormp]

Hi guys,

I have some python scripts working on application monitoring and I need to find the sintax to use on the nsclient.ini

on powershell for instance I use:
[service_name] = cmd /c echo scripts[name_of_the_script.ps1] $ARG1$ ; exit $LastExitCode | powershell.exe -noprofile -executionpolicy bypass -command -

but for python scripts I'm not able to find the correct syntax.

Does anyone can help on this topic?

The last time the python documentation was updated was in 2017, it just says "todo".
I dont think you'll get a reply soon.

What kinb of script is it?

If it is a general script you can just run it like you do other scripts...

https://nsclient.org/docs/howto/external_scripts/

[/settings/external]
my_script=python scripts\script.py

There is a "PythonScript" module as well which is only used for script interacting with NSClient++ i.e. making changes or running commands or some such. For regular script they work just like regular scripts...
