Usage

package main

import (
    "fmt"
    "os"

    livestatus "github.com/vbatoufflet/go-livestatus"
)

func main() {
    c := livestatus.NewClient("tcp", "localhost:6557")
    // or c := livestatus.NewClient("unix", "/var/run/nagios/livestatus.sock")
    defer c.Close()

    q := livestatus.NewQuery("hosts")
    q.Columns("name", "state", "last_time_down")
    q.Filter("name ~ ^db[0-9]+\\.")
    // or q := livestatus.Query("hosts").Columns("name", "state", "last_time_down").Filter("name ~ ^db[0-9]+\\.")

    resp, err := c.Exec(q)
    if err != nil {
        fmt.Fprintf(os.Stderr, "Error: %s", err)
        os.Exit(1)
    }

    for _, r := range resp.Records {
        name, err := r.GetString("name")
        if err != nil {
            fmt.Fprintf(os.Stderr, "Warning: %s", err)
        }

        state, err := r.GetInt("state")
        if err != nil {
            fmt.Fprintf(os.Stderr, "Warning: %s", err)
        }

        lastTimeDown, err := r.GetTime("last_time_down")
        if err != nil {
            fmt.Fprintf(os.Stderr, "Warning: %s", err)
        }

        fmt.Printf("Host: %s, State: %d, Last time down: %s\n", name, state, lastTimeDown)
    }
}

Output example:

Host: db1.example.net, State: 0, Last time down: 2015-04-03 06:54:32 +0200 CEST
Host: db2.example.net, State: 0, Last time down: 2015-06-07 12:34:56 +0200 CEST
