According to the XML Collector wiki page, https://wiki.opennms.org/wiki/XML_Collector#XML_Sources_URLs , it is possible to configure an xml collector to utilise a local file for the xml-source url.


In addition you can use cron to collect files from somewhere else and output to a local file with the remote node's IP address in the file path.
file:///var/tmp/customstats/server-{ipaddr}.xml


Using this info, I have set up a script that runs on my opennms server that generates statistics for an application placing the data in an XML file containing the application node's IP address


    <xml-collection name="xml-Batch">
        <rrd step="300">
            <rra>RRA:AVERAGE:0.5:1:2016</rra>
            <rra>RRA:AVERAGE:0.5:12:1488</rra>
            <rra>RRA:AVERAGE:0.5:288:366</rra>
            <rra>RRA:MAX:0.5:288:366</rra>
            <rra>RRA:MIN:0.5:288:366</rra>
        </rrd>
        <xml-source url="file:///home/opennms/etc/ellipse_{ipaddr}_batch.xml">
            <import-groups>xml-datacollection/Batch.xml</import-groups>
        </xml-source>
    </xml-collection>


How do I set up a detector for this that I can use in a provisioning requisition?  There doesn't seem to be a "local file" detector.

Regards,
John
