pure ruby NSCA library

NSCA is a protocol for Nagios passive checks. You must run nsca on your server to use it.

This is a ruby-pure implementation.

First it was planed to provide a client-API, but now there is also a full server-API.

Tested against nsca-2.7.

TO DO AND DONE

TODO

• server side parsing of performance data
• more documentations
• mcrypt-support

DONE

• packet-API (one check will be packed in one packet)
• simple-"encryption" (only xor with password and server-side generated iv-key)
• client-API (send to server)
• server-API (recv from client)
• check-API (describe checks and performance data)
• fast usable API for sending checks
• build packet with performance data
