- **Optimization**: Implemented automatic Zabbix parameter optimization by analyzing GraphQL selection sets. - **ZabbixRequest**: Added optimizeZabbixParams with support for skippable parameters and implied field dependencies (e.g., state -> items). - **Resolvers**: Updated allHosts, allDevices, allHostGroups, and templates to pass requested fields to data sources. - **Data Sources**: Optimized ZabbixQueryHostsGenericRequest and ZabbixQueryTemplatesRequest to skip unnecessary Zabbix API calls. - **Regression Tests**: Enhanced RegressionTestExecutor with new tests for optimization (REG-OPT, REG-OPT-NEG), state retrieval (REG-STATE), dependent items (REG-DEP), and empty results (REG-EMPTY). - **Documentation**: Created query_optimization.md How-To guide and updated roadmap.md, README.md, and tests.md. - **Bug Fixes**: Fixed deviceType tag assignment during host import and corrected ZabbixCreateHostRequest to support tags.

🗺️ Roadmap
This document outlines the achieved milestones and planned enhancements for the Zabbix GraphQL API project.
✅ Achieved Milestones
-
🎯 VCR Product Integration: Developed a specialized GraphQL API as part of the VCR Product to enable the use of Zabbix as a robust base for monitoring and controlling IoT devices.
- First use case: Control of mobile traffic jam warning installations on German Autobahns.
-
🔓 Open Source Extraction & AI Integration: Extracted the core functionality of the API to publish it as an Open Source project.
- AI Integration: Enhanced with Model Context Protocol (MCP) and AI agent integration to enable workflow and agent-supported use cases.
📅 Planned Enhancements
-
⚡ Query Optimization: Optimize GraphQL API queries to reduce the amount of data fetched from Zabbix depending on the fields really requested and improve performance.
-
🏗️ Trade Fair Logistics Use Case: Extend the API to support trade fair logistics use cases by analyzing requirements from business stakeholders.
- Analysis: Analysis of "Trade Fair Logistics" and derived requirements document.
- Simulation:
- Create mocked "real world sensor devices" relevant for the use case.
- Create a sample device collecting relevant information from public APIs, e.g. weather conditions or traffic conditions at a given location.
- Simulate the traffic conditions on the route by using the simulated sensor devices.
- Configuration: Analyze a real-world transport and configure Zabbix by placing sensor devices at the right places of the route.
-
📦 CI/CD & Package Publishing: Build and publish the API as an npm package as part of the
.forgejoworkflow to simplify distribution and updates. -
🧱 Flexible Usage: Transform the package into a versatile tool that can be used either standalone or as a core library (published to npmjs.com).
-
🧩 Extension Project: Add support for problem and trigger-related queries through the
zabbix-graphql-api-problemsextension.- AI Integration: Leverage MCP + AI agents to automatically react to Zabbix problems within external workflows.
