NAME

Zabbix::API::Map -- Zabbix map objects

SYNOPSIS

  use Zabbix::API::Map;

  # TODO write the rest

DESCRIPTION

Handles CRUD for Zabbix map objects.

This is a subclass of Zabbix::API::CRUDE.

METHODS

hosts([HOSTS])

Specific mutator for the selements array. Setting the selements through this actually only has an effect on host type elements (that is, both elements that have the correct elementtype and elements that have a host element). All other types are ignored.

push()

This method handles extraneous host => Zabbix::API::Host attributes in the selements array, transforming them into elementid and elementtype attributes (and setting the label attribute to the hostname if it isn't set already), and pushing the hosts to the server if they don't exist already.

Overriden from Zabbix::API::CRUDE.

** WARNING ** Due to the way maps API calls are implemented in Zabbix, updating a map will delete it and create it anew. The sysmapid will change if you push an existing map.

EXPORTS

The various integers representing map element types are implemented as constants:

  MAP_ELEMENT_TYPE_HOST
  MAP_ELEMENT_TYPE_MAP
  MAP_ELEMENT_TYPE_TRIGGER
  MAP_ELEMENT_TYPE_HOSTGROUP
  MAP_ELEMENT_TYPE_IMAGE

Nothing is exported by default; you can use the tag :map_element_types (or import by name).
