Hi,

Recently, Mozilla has announced some tools that gives grade for
website. You can get a look of what I'm talking by going to:
https://observatory.mozilla.org

For example, you can through the api do:

curl  --data "hidden=true"

https://http-observatory.security.mozilla.org/api/v1/analyze?host=www.unige.ch
{
  "end_time": "Sun, 04 Sep 2016 19:48:54 GMT",
  "grade": "F",
  "response_headers": {
    "Accept-Ranges": "bytes",
    "Connection": "Keep-Alive",
    "Content-Length": "153",
    "Content-Type": "text/html",
    "Date": "Sun, 04 Sep 2016 19:48:53 GMT",
    "Keep-Alive": "timeout=15, max=100",
    "Server": "Apache"
  },
  "scan_id": 1579077,
  "score": 0,
  "start_time": "Sun, 04 Sep 2016 19:48:50 GMT",
  "state": "FINISHED",
  "tests_failed": 6,
  "tests_passed": 5,
  "tests_quantity": 11
}


I would love to be able to display and monitor the grade.

Can someone tell me what is the best way to do this?

Some scripting will be required. You can use the curl command to get the data, then e.g. "jq" to pick out the individial fields you want to track. E.g.

GRADE=`curl -s -k https://http-observatory.security.mozilla.org/api/v1/analyze?host=www.unige.ch | jq -r .grade`
case $GRADE in
   F) COLOR=red ;;
   E|D|C) COLOR=yellow ;;
   A|B) COLOR=greed ;;
esac

and then generate a normal status report - see the example on how to create custom tests at https://xymon.com/help/xymon-tips.html#scripts
