AnyStatus communicates with plugins using the API library. During startup, AnyStatus scans assemblies in the installation directory and registers all plugins.

A plugin is a set of classes that instruct AnyStatus how to display it in the dashboard and which features the plugin supports.

A class that defines the plugin.

[DisplayName("Ping")]
[DisplayColumn("Network")]
[Description("Test the reachability of a host")]
public class Ping : Plugin, IMonitored
{
 [Required]
 [Category("Ping")]
 [Description("Host Name or IP Address")]
 public string Host { get; set; }
}

A class that handles a monitor health check.

public class Pong : IMonitor<Ping>
{
 public void Handle(Ping myPing)
 {
 using (var ping = new System.Net.NetworkInformation.Ping())
 {
 var pong = ping.Send(myPing.Host);
 
 if (pong.Status == IPStatus.Success)
 ping.State = State.Ok;
 else
 ping.State = State.Failed;
 }
 }
}

In addition to the IMonitored and IMonitor<T> interfaces, you can also implement interfaces such as ICanStart, ICanStop, ICanRestart and others, to let AnyStatus know which features are supported by the plugin.
