NAME

Zabbix::API::Screen -- Zabbix screen objects

SYNOPSIS

  use Zabbix::API::Screen;

  # TODO write the rest

DESCRIPTION

Handles CRUD for Zabbix screen objects.

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

METHODS

items([ITEMS])

Mutator for the screenitems array. Setting the screenitems through this means you won't have to set the hsize and vsize data attributes accordingly, as that will be done for you. It also checks that the x and y attributes have been specified for all the screenitems and throws an exception otherwise.

push()

This method handles extraneous graph => Zabbix::API::Graph attributes in the screenitems array, transforming them into resourceid and resourcetype attributes, and pushing the graphs to the server if they don't exist already.

This means you can put Zabbix::API::Graph objects in your data and the module will Do The Right Thing (assuming you agree with my definition of the Right Thing). Graphs that have been created this way will not be removed from the server if they are removed from the screen, however.

Since graphs do the same thing with their Item graphitems, you can create a bunch of items, put them in a bunch of graphs, put those in a screen, push the screen, sit back and enjoy the fireworks.

Overriden from Zabbix::API::CRUDE.
