# NGINX Plus by HTTP

## Overview

This template is designed for the effortless deployment of Nginx Plus monitoring by Zabbix via HTTP and doesn't require any external scripts.

> The monitoring data of the live activity is generated by the [NGINX Plus API](http://nginx.org/en/docs/http/ngx_http_api_module.html).

## Requirements

Zabbix version: 7.0 and higher.

## Tested versions

This template has been tested on:
- NGINX Plus 1.19.10

## Configuration

> Zabbix should be configured according to the instructions in the [Templates out of the box](https://www.zabbix.com/documentation/7.0/manual/config/templates_out_of_the_box) section.

## Setup

1. Enable the NGINX Plus API.
> Refer to the [vendor documentation](https://www.nginx.com/products/nginx/live-activity-monitoring/).
2. Set the {$NGINX.API.ENDPOINT} such as `<scheme>://<host>:<port>/<location>/`.

**Note** that depending on the number of zones and upstreams discovery operation may be expensive. 
Therefore, use the following filters with these macros:

- {$NGINX.LLD.FILTER.HTTP.ZONE.MATCHES}
- {$NGINX.LLD.FILTER.HTTP.ZONE.NOT_MATCHES}
- {$NGINX.LLD.FILTER.HTTP.LOCATION.ZONE.MATCHES}
- {$NGINX.LLD.FILTER.HTTP.LOCATION.ZONE.NOT_MATCHES}
- {$NGINX.LLD.FILTER.HTTP.UPSTREAM.MATCHES}
- {$NGINX.LLD.FILTER.HTTP.UPSTREAM.NOT_MATCHES}
- {$NGINX.LLD.FILTER.STREAM.ZONE.MATCHES}
- {$NGINX.LLD.FILTER.STREAM.ZONE.NOT_MATCHES}
- {$NGINX.LLD.FILTER.STREAM.UPSTREAM.MATCHES}
- {$NGINX.LLD.FILTER.STREAM.UPSTREAM.NOT_MATCHES}
- {$NGINX.LLD.FILTER.RESOLVER.MATCHES}
- {$NGINX.LLD.FILTER.RESOLVER.NOT_MATCHES}
