Add dependency linking to zabbix_service module
SUMMARY
Add support for linking dependencies to a service in zabbix. This is similar to how zabbix_host supports the link_templates parameter which allows you to link a template to a host.
ISSUE TYPE
- Feature Idea
COMPONENT NAME
zabbix_service
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
It would be very useful to have the zabbix_service module support linking dependencies. It looks like the Zabbix API supports this via the service.adddependencies, service.deletedependencies, and service.update methods. This would allow you to define a list of dependencies for a server in its ansible role and then update those automatically, much like how link_templates in zabbix_host works now:
- name: Manage services
local_action:
module: community.zabbix.zabbix_service
server_url: "https://192.168.1.1"
login_user: username
login_password: password
name: apache2 service
sla: 99.99
calculate_sla: yes
algorithm: one_child
trigger_name: apache2 service status
trigger_host: webserver01
state: present
link_dependencies:
- other service 1
- other service 2
- other service 3
Thank you for considering this feature!
thank you for the suggestion @amartin3225 . The requests seems reasonable and doable, although I am not sure when we would be able to address it.
If you are considering submitting a PR it would be more than welcome! :)
