Java and C# agent library 🔗 link

Hello.
I have several Java and c# daemons running some missinon critical tasks and I want to monitor those daemons with Hobbit.
I heard that I could use the HTTP POST command to post heartbeats to the Hobbit but I cant seem to find any dicumentation about this.
Can anyone give me a hint here where I could find some documentation about this?
Are there maybe some existing Java or C# libraries out there?

Look at the bbmessage.cgi manpage.

You need to send a normal Hobbit message - like the text you would put
in the 
   $BB $BBDISP "status fooserver.myapp green ..." 
message - and send the "status foo..." text as the contents of the HTTP 
POST that you pass to the bbmessage.cgi CGI script.

So something like

   POST /cgi-bin/bbmessage.cgi HTTP/1.0
   Content-Length: 81

   status fooserver.com.myapp green 23 May 2008 10:41:00

   The application is OK
 
and send it off to the Hobbit server's web interface. Presumably your
Java / C# libraries have some utility functions for doing a POST to
a webserver, so you just need to concern yourself with the status
message.
