bb-datepage.cgi

NAME

bb-datepage.cgi - Xymon CGI script to view pre-built reports by date

SYNOPSIS

bb-datepage.cgi?type={day,week,month} --url=URLPREFIX [options]

DESCRIPTION

bb-datepage.cgi is invoked as a CGI script via the bb-datepage.sh CGI wrapper.

bb-datepage.cgi is passed a QUERY_STRING environment variable with the type of time-selection that is desired: Either "day", "week" or "month" can be requested. It will then generate a web form with appropriate day/week/month selection boxes, and based on the users' selection a resulting url is built from the URLPREFIX and the time selection. The browser is then redirected to this URL.

The URL is constructed from the URLPREFIX, the type-parameter, the value of the "pagepath" or "host" cookie, and the users' selection as follows:

type=day

The final URL is URLPREFIX/daily/YEAR/MONTH/DAY/PAGEPATH.

type=week

The final URL is URLPREFIX/weekly/YEAR/WEEK/PAGEPATH.

type=month

The final URL is URLPREFIX/monthly/YEAR/MONTH/PAGEPATH.

YEAR is the full year (4 digits, including century). MONTH is the two-digit number of the month (01..12). DAY is the number of the day in the month (01..31). WEEK is the ISO 8601:1988 week-number (01..53). PAGEPATH is the current value of the "pagepath" cookie if set; if it is not set but the "host" cookie is set, then this host is looked up in the bb-hosts file and the page where this host is found is used for PAGEPATH. These two cookies are set by the default web-header templates supplied with Xymon.
