You need to send your status message with a format that will either work
with the ncv support in Hobbit, or that you can handle yourself in a
"catcher" script that you add to the status and data channels.
This process is pretty well documented.
And I believe that there are folks who have done this very thing for
devmon, but I have not seen the code -- I would like a copy of it
myself.
D'oh, the answer was right in front of me. I forgot that the old Big Brother had a bb-memory.sh script that it used to generate that data, so all I had to do was replicate it, since Hobbit has that nice backwards compatibility built into it for the old clients. Just make your devmon messages file look like:
Memory Used Total Percentage
{percMemUsed.color} Physical {megMemUsed}M {megMemTotal}M {percMemUsed}%
And a transforms file like:
MemTotal : MATH : {MemUsed} + {MemAvail}
xpercMemUsed : MATH : ({MemUsed} / {MemTotal}) x 100
percMemUsed : REGSUB : {xpercMemUsed} /(.*)\..*/$1/
megMemUsed : MATH : {MemUsed} / 1024000
megMemTotal : MATH : {MemTotal} / 1024000
