Additional notes

Sensu Go Ruby Runtime Assets

The Sensu assets packaged from this repository are built against the Sensu Ruby runtime environment. When using these assets as part of a Sensu Go resource (check, mutator, or handler), make sure to include the corresponding Sensu Ruby Runtime Asset in the list of assets needed by the resource.

Use this plugin with Sensu Go

To use handler-chef-node.rb with Sensu Go, you will need to use the event mapping command line option. See handler-chef-node.rb --help for details. Read the sensu-plugin README for more information about the event mapping functionality.
