This update enhances compatibility across multiple Zabbix versions and introduces tools for easier local development and testing.
Key improvements and verified version support:
- Verified Zabbix version support: 6.2, 6.4, 7.0, and 7.4.
- Version-specific feature handling:
- `history.push` is enabled only for Zabbix 7.0+; older versions skip it with a clear error or notice.
- Conditional JSON-RPC authentication: the `auth` field is automatically added to the request body for versions older than 6.4.
- Implemented static Zabbix version caching in the datasource to minimize redundant API calls.
- Query optimization refinements:
- Added mapping for implied fields (e.g., `state` -> `items`, `deviceType` -> `tags`).
- Automatically prune unnecessary Zabbix parameters (like `selectItems` or `selectTags`) when not requested.
- Local development environment:
- Added a new `zabbix-local` Docker Compose profile that includes PostgreSQL, Zabbix Server, and Zabbix Web.
- Supports testing different versions by passing the `ZABBIX_VERSION` environment variable (e.g., 6.2, 6.4, 7.0, 7.4).
- Provided a sample environment file at `samples/zabbix-local.env`.
- Documentation and Roadmap:
- Updated README with a comprehensive version compatibility matrix and local environment instructions.
- Created a new guide: `docs/howtos/local_development.md`.
- Updated maintenance guides and added "Local Development Environment" as an achieved milestone in the roadmap.
- Test suite enhancements:
- Improved Smoketest and RegressionTest executors with more reliable resource cleanup and error reporting.
- Made tests version-aware to prevent failures on older Zabbix instances.
BREAKING CHANGE: Dropped Zabbix 6.0 specific workarounds; the minimum supported version is now 6.2.
- Implement pushHistory mutation to support pushing telemetry data to Zabbix trapper items.
- Add VERBOSITY and MCP_LOG_* environment variables for controllable request/response logging in both API and MCP server.
- Enhance ZabbixRESTDataSource with better session handling and error logging.
- Update ZabbixHistory datasource to support history push operations.
- Expand documentation with new cookbook recipes and MCP integration guides.
- Add integration tests for history pushing (src/test/history_push*).
- Reorganize documentation, moving technical product info PDF to docs/use-cases/.
- Update GraphQL generated types and VCR templates.
