Feature Request: make connection to localhost without any parameters #1

Open jaykumar-jnpr opened 7 years ago

jaykumar-jnpr commented 7 years ago

Rubyipmi support creating connection to localhost without any connection parameters (without username, password, host etc) using openipmi driver. Can sensu-plugins-ipmi also support this.

rubyipmi

Additionally, if your using openipmi and will be using rubyipmi to connect to the 
localhost you can utilize the openipmi driver and not have to pass in any connection parameters.

That would be a nice addition. We could make username and password optional and adjust the connect string. Could you help with a PR to do that?

Will this be implemented. Much needed feature :+1:
