Need Help with Notification methods

Hello Everyone,

I was hoping you guys could point me in the right direction to add a notification method.

I need to add a notiffcaiton method so Zenoss 5.1 will send notifications using a REST API

Problem I have is that VictorOps does not currently install in Zenoss 5.1 and I need to send things to them.

I could technically do it via email however, if my email goes down I am SOL hahahaha

So I guess 2 options would fix my problem.

1.) point me to adding a REST API (https push) notification method

or

2.) help me fix the install of VictorOps

for the people that are interested here is what happened when I tried to install the victor ops egg file from inside a docker container snapshot. YES i know you install egg files differently in 5.x this was my way of kind of hacking it in an attempt to get it to work lol

I got the following errors:

[root@f44eee4c7b73 /]# wget http://software.victorops.com/VictorOps-Public.repo
[root@f44eee4c7b73 /]# mv VictorOps-Public.repo /etc/yum.repos.d/
[root@f44eee4c7b73 /]# ll /etc/yum.repos.d/
Enter Zenoss password for user admin:
[root@f44eee4c7b73 /]# /opt/victorops/zenoss_plugin/bin/configure.sh
Enter Zenoss server URL [http://localhost:8080/]:

Enter Zenoss user: admin

I even attempted using a FQDN that resolves to a public IP outside of the docker containers but that actually failed as it could not connect.
