Extending Icinga Web with Modules: powerful, smart and easily created
summary
Shows concrete modules built on icingaweb2 using the scaffoldbuilder and Director APIs: check-reports (PDF reports of latest check results wired into Reporting module), impersonate (login-as-user form plus audit hook), team dashboards and custom dashboards (role-mapped dashboard sharing, CLI install), monitoring-backports (restores removed host-action counts by extending list controller), a prototype plugin-doc-builder and map enhancements. Demos run live, most modules work, one report migration shows inconsistent execution times and plugin-doc-builder remains rough but functional.
