Feature Request - LINK tag?

4 messages in this thread

list Stewart Larsen · Wed, 7 Mar 2007 14:57:02 -0500 ·
I'd like to have a tag that I can specify for a host that will make the
hostname become a link to something.  

For example, 

10.1.1.1	host1.localdomain	# ntp LINK:http://10.1.1.1

When displayed in the browser, the host name would then become a link
the web server running on that host.  Or it could be a FTP://, mailto,
or whatever protocols you wanted to put there. Click on the host name
and off you go.

I can do the coding, but I am unsure hereto look in the code.   If
someone can give me a little direction (or code this up faster than I),
it would be greatly appreciated.  I'd be happy to submit back a patch
for this.

Check the man page for bbgen - what you are looking for is called docurl 
I have to pointing to a php page but you can do anything you like.

The man page references using %s to substitute the host name for the
machines.  Are there other substitution variables defined somewhere like
IP address?

Can you turn this on for only certain hosts?  That's what I was really
after.

This can be done in the bb-hosts file, I use it to link to a system drawing per system:

10.1.1.1    host1.localdomain        #NAME:"<a href=/systems/host1.html>HOST1</a>"

Regards,

Johan
