custom script parameters

[verus]

Hi,

I use a custom script (for sms_client) and years ago somebody here gave me the values i can use in the sms_client from zabbix (subject and message).
But because i switched from employer, i lost the settings and i don't find them here.
Does somebody knows how to send the zabbix parameters into the script ? (it was something with "#"or "%" signs if i remember well...).
And i don't find it in the manual, just found:

Script
Custom script. Zabbix passes three command line parameters to the script: Recipient, Subject and Message.

but not the command line parameters themself.

thanks,
Verus.

Are you referring to "Run remote commands" in the "Action operations"?

I use the following for my custom sms script:

zabbix.my.net.au:/usr/local/zabbix/bin/smsalert.pl --phone=61412345678 --message="{TRIGGER.NAME}: {ITEM.LASTVALUE}"

hi,

no, in the actions pane i send a message to a media type i have "sms.script" which is a script (of course) in the directory /etc/zabbix/alert.d
The script in that directory is "sms.script" with the following:
sms_client -l 0 user1 "<values>"

Now, there are parameters that i need for those values and these are the parameters for the message subject and body and it was something with "%" but i don't have the details and i really would like that info again.

I believe Alexei gave me those parameters before but it is years ago.
thanks, Verus.

Depends on what langage you write you script (or binary).

If your script is a shell script, you'll get those values as $1, $2, $3...
If your "script" is a C binary, you'll pull those values from argc/argv...
If your script is written in perl, you get get args with $ARGV[0], $ARGV[1]...

In php I use:
#!/usr/bin/php
<?php

$ToNumber=$argv[1];
$Subject=$argv[2];
$Message=$argv[3];
