Tutorials
The following tutorials provide step-by-step instructions on using zenpacklib to extend Virtana is common ways.
This tutorial starts with the very basics of creating a ZenPack through Virtana’ web interface and adding configuration to it. Then it progresses to extending the model, creating a modeler plugin, monitoring components, and then to event management with SNMP traps as an example.
This is most likely the first tutorial you should do.
In this tutorial the basics are skipped and we jump right into extending the model, modeling a custom HTTP API, and monitoring the same API using the zenpython daemon provided by the PythonCollector ZenPack.
This is a more advanced tutorial that contains more advanced Python code.
