check-dht

Nagios plugin to monitor humidity and temperature data from a Raspberry Pi Pico

$ check_dht
DHT OK - temperature is 23°C | humidity=48%;60;65;0;100 onboard=23°C;30;40 temperature=23°C;30;40

Format

Notice: This plugin works in conjuction with the pico-dht project! It expects a device to be available which periodically prints JSON data to a serial port:

{
   "humidity":48,
   "temperature":23,
   "onboard":23,
   "error":0
}

humidity and temperature are measurements taken directly from a DHT22/DHT11 sensor
The RP2040s built-in temperature sensor is reported in the onboard field.
In case of an Issue (e.g. I/O), a POSIX errno is set in the error field.

Install

The recommended installation is via pip install check-dht.

Manually

Alternatively, the source module can be executed after installing needed dependencies:

Usage

$ poetry run check_dht --help
usage: check_dht [-h] [-p PORT] [-b BAUD] [-w TEMP] [-c TEMP]
                 [--humidity-warning PERCENT] [--humidity-critical PERCENT]

options:
  -h, --help            show this help message and exit
  -p PORT, --port PORT  the serial file to read from
  -b BAUD, --baud BAUD  baudrate of the serial port
  -w TEMP, --warning TEMP
                        return warning if air temperature is beyond TEMP
  -c TEMP, --critical TEMP
                        return critical if air temperature is beyond TEMP
  --humidity-warning PERCENT
                        return warning if humidity is beyond PERCENT
  --humidity-critical PERCENT
                        return critical if humidity is beyond PERCENT
