Custom Alert Message

Sensu Classic (EOL)
1

Hi there guys

I'd like to know if there is a way to customize the alert message body, I mean, given an alert, I want to include extra text on it describing what's going on

For example, I want to include a text saying. " Expect other kind of alerts being trigered because of this one, we'll take care of this..", or any other of advice..

Is that possible?

Thanks

Regards

If you are using a handler that allows customization, then take advantage of that.
For example the normal sensu email handler takes a template argument:

https://github.com/sensu-plugins/sensu-plugins-mailer/blob/master/bin/handler-mailer.rb#L46

Or modify whatever handlers you are using as you see fit to meet your needs.

For example you could edit a handler and make it your own

https://github.com/sensu-plugins/sensu-plugins-mailer/blob/master/bin/handler-mailer.rb#L140

if you need more than what a template can offer. (Custom logic, ruby function calls, etc)
