It would be very useful to be able to send the translated alerts to a HTTP REST endpoint as an alternative to store it in a database. I.e. a HTTP POST request with a alert message (ex. JSON) as body. Alert message in body should preferably be based on a template language like Jinja2 with possibility to include SNMPTT $-variables as part of the content.
This feature would make it easier to use NetSNMP snmptrapd and SNMPTT to integrate with modern web based tools.
Would you consider such a feature?

Other bonus features could possibly include

  • Also support HTTP GET with variables included as URL querystring
  • Support for custom HTTP headers to support authentication etc.
  • ...

Best regards
Roger
