Script to get data from webpage

Votes:

0

Hi all, I'm trying PRTG to replace our old nagios monitoring and I'm very happy how easy and well documented this tool are.

Anyway I need some help to get the temperature value from an environmental sensor made for Nagios (eesensor). The sensor haven't snmp/telnet/ssh, only HTTP with only one row in the page with temperature and humnidity and illumination:

aN022631TC: 26.6HU:42.5%IL: 0.3

I've ask to support and they told me that I need a powershell script like this, but the script world out of the support: $site = invoke-webrequest IPadress $site.content

I tried to do it all alone, but I'm not a "script-guru", can someone give me a little help?

Thanks in advance

Hi there,

Please take a look at this site where we describe how the response have to look like. I would recommend to use something like regular expression to cut out the values and place them into the defined output.
