Monitoring uWSGI with Nagios

The official uWSGI distribution includes a plugin adding Nagios-friendly output.

To monitor, and eventually get warning messages, via Nagios, launch the following command, where node is the socket (UNIX or TCP) to monitor.

  1. uwsgi --socket <node> --nagios

Setting warning messages

You can set a warning message directly from your app with the uwsgi.set_warning_message() function. All ping responses (used by Nagios too) will report this message.
