Beginner: use Zabbix only with cli possible?

[mixmegapol]

Hi all

I consider using zabbix (in the company we had nagios so far, and a colleague uses icinga and is happy). I would love to use zabbix but have a question which I couldn't sort out so far:
is it possible to use a whole zabbix environment only with cli so as nagios? A web frontend would be easier; but is it possible to use only cli?

Kind regards
Daniel

Zabbix doesn't provide management CLI tool out of the box. But it provides nice API, so all zabbix CLI tools use API - https://www.zabbix.org/wiki/Zabbix_CLI_Tools

I can't guarantee that you will be able to manage everything with these Zabbix CLI tools, but you have always option to implement your own CLI tool/command via API if some functionality will be missing.

API doc: https://www.zabbix.com/documentation/2.4/manual/api
