This change introduces the Weather Sensor device type which retrieves data from public APIs, and enhances the core Host/Device interfaces to provide consistent access to inventory and items across all specialized device types. It also improves search logic and fixes several bugs identified during implementation.
- Weather Sensor Extension: Added schema and recipe for a device retrieving weather data via Zabbix HTTP agent items.
- Interface Enhancements: Added inventory and items fields to Host and Device interfaces to ensure all device specialized types have consistent access to monitoring and inventory data.
- Search Logic Improvements: Enhanced ParsedArgs to support searchByAny and technical name (host) searches when a name pattern is provided.
- Bug Fixes:
- Fixed getLocations argument order in the Zabbix API datasource.
- Implemented deduplication for groupids and templateids in HostImporter to prevent Zabbix duplicate value errors.
- Added missing url field to CreateTemplateItem for HTTP Agent item support.
- Testing:
- Extended the regression test suite with 4 new automated checks covering the fixed bugs.
- Updated Jest tests to accommodate the improved search parameters.
- Documentation: Updated cookbook and test specifications to reflect new features and regression testing obligations.
