+# Publishing New Versions
+
+## Steps to take on forked repository
+
+1. Create new branch X.Y.Zprep.
+2. Check all merged PRs since last release and verify they had changelog fragments included. If not add them to _changelogs/fragments/missing.yml_ and commit.
+3. Generate a changelog entries for new version:
+
+
+ ```
+ # python3 -m venv antsibull-env && source antsibull-env/bin/activate && pip3 install antsibull-changelog
+ antsibull-changelog release --version X.Y.Z --date YYYY-MM-DD
+ ```
+
+4. Update `galaxy.yml` file and `requirements.yml` example in `README.md` with the new `version` for the collection and commit.
+5. Push new branch for the review `git push origin X.Y.Zprep`.
+6. Before merging, ensure that date used for `antsibull-changelog` command is consistent with the day that PR was merged on.
+
+## Steps to take on ansible-collections/community.zabbix
+
+1. After merging the branch from previous steps, tag the version via git and push to GitHub:
+
+
+ ```
+ git tag -a X.Y.Z
+ git push origin X.Y.Z
+ ```
+
+2. Create new Release pointing to new X.Y.Z tag https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.zabbix/releases
+
+Additional manual steps are required when automatic publish to Ansible Galaxy is not enabled in the repository. This
+requires a user who has access to the `community.zabbix` namespace on Ansible Galaxy to publish the build artifact.
+
+3. Run the following commands to build and release the new version on Galaxy:
+
+ ```
+ ansible-galaxy collection build
+ ansible-galaxy collection publish ./community-zabbix-$VERSION_HERE.tar.gz
+ ```
+
+After the version is published, verify it exists on the [Zabbix Collection Galaxy page](https://galaxy.ansible.com/community/zabbix).

+# Release cycle and versioning
+
+## Versioning
+Versioning is using SemVer (X.Y.Z):
+- The X is a **major version** and is incremented when:
+ - Support for older Zabbix versions is removed.
+ - Support for older Ansible versions is removed.
+ - Support for older Python versions is removed.
+ - Modules, roles or plugins are removed.
+ - Module or role functionality is removed.
+ - Other breaking changes or backward-incompatible changes are introduced.
+
+- The Y is a **minor version** and is incremented when:
+ - Support for new Zabbix versions is added.
+ - Support for new Ansible versions is added.
+ - Support for new Python versions is added.
+ - A new module, role, plugin, etc., is added.
+ - New features are introduced to modules, roles, plugins.
+ - A functionality of components is adjusted in a backward-compatible way.
+
+- The Z is a **patch version** and is incremented when:
+ - Bugs are fixed in a backward-compatible way.
+ - Documentation fixes and smaller changes are introduced.
+## Releases
+Release dates are not fixed. Instead, they will be discussed at the beginning of each month following this guideline:
+- The version increment will depend on the content that will be included in the release, as discussed in the *Versioning* section.
+- New collection releases may be a result of this discussion if necessary.
+- There may be several releases during the month if needed.
+## Collection support
+The latest release of the community.zabbix is always supported.
+Older releases, which are included in the still supported Ansible versions, may obtain occasional backports or bug fixes when necessary. [1]
+
+[1] [Collection versioning requirements](https://github.com/ansible-collections/overview/blob/main/collection_requirements.rst#versioning-and-deprecation)
+## Branches
+Branch *main* always holds the code for the latest supported release.
+New branch *stable-X.Y* is pushed before starting a new *major (X+1)* version development in the main branch.
+
+The *stable-X.Y* branch provides a way to merge any necessary backports and release bug fixes for older major versions of this collection while they are still included in currently supported ansible releases.
+> For example, if the current version of the collection is *1.3.2* and a new version *2.0.0* is being released, the branch *stable-1.Y* should be pushed prior to the release, matching the last commit that was included with the *1.3.2* release.
+
+## Merging
+Merging follows this guideline:
+- *Main branch* (previously master branch) is the current branch.
+- *stable-X.Y* is a separate branch used to fix issues in older supported collection releases.
+- There should be a separate branch for each contribution.
+- There should be a separate pull request for each version increment.

+
+### Roles
+
+#### Agent
+
+A 1-on-1 copy of the Ansible role `dj-wasabi.zabbix-agent` to this collection. Due to naming of roles as part of a collection, some characters (Like the `-`) are not allowed anymore. This role is therefore renamed from `zabbix-agent` to `zabbix_agent`.
+
+Example of using the role in this collection:
+```yaml
+- hosts: all
+ roles:
+ - role: community.zabbix.zabbix_agent
+ zabbix_agent_server: 192.168.33.30
+ zabbix_agent_serveractive: 192.168.33.30
+```
+
+#### Server
+
+A 1-on-1 copy of the Ansible role `dj-wasabi.zabbix-server` to this collection. Due to naming of roles as part of a collection, some characters (Like the `-`) are not allowed anymore. This role is therefore renamed from `zabbix-server` to `zabbix_server`.
+
+Example of using the role in this collection::
+```yaml
+- hosts: zabbix-server
+ roles:
+ - role: community.zabbix.zabbix_server
+ zabbix_server_database: mysql
+ zabbix_server_database_long: mysql
+ zabbix_server_dbport: 3306
+```
+
+#### Proxy
+
+A 1-on-1 copy of the Ansible role `dj-wasabi.zabbix-proxy` to this collection. Due to naming of roles as part of a collection, some characters (Like the `-`) are not allowed anymore. This role is therefore renamed from `zabbix-proxy` to `zabbix_proxy`.

+
+ * Red Hat
+ * Fedora
+ * Debian
+ * Ubuntu
+ * opensuse
+ * Windows (Best effort)
+ * macOS
+

+
+## Ansible 2.10 and higher
+
+With the release of Ansible 2.10, modules have been moved into collections. With the exception of ansible.builtin modules, this means additonal collections must be installed in order to use modules such as seboolean (now ansible.posix.seboolean). The following collections are now required: `ansible.posix`and `community.general`. Installing the collections:
+
+```sh
+ansible-galaxy collection install ansible.posix
+ansible-galaxy collection install community.general
+```
+If you are willing to create host_groups and hosts in Zabbix via API as a part of this role execution then you need to install `ansible.netcommon` collection too:
+
+```
+ansible-galaxy collection install ansible.netcommon
+```
+
+### Docker
+
+When you are a Docker user and using Ansible 2.10 or newer, then there is a dependency on the collection named `community.docker`. This collection is needed as the `docker_` modules are now part of collections and not standard in Ansible anymmore. Installing the collection:
+
+```sh
+ansible-galaxy collection install community.docker
+```
+
+### Windows
+
+When you are a Windows user and using Ansible 2.10 or newer, then there are dependencies on collections named `ansible.windows` and `community.windows`. These collections are needed as the `win_` modules are now part of collections and not standard in Ansible anymmore. Installing the collections:
+
+```sh
+ansible-galaxy collection install ansible.windows
+ansible-galaxy collection install community.windows
+```
+
+For more information, see: https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.zabbix/issues/236
+
+## Local system access
+
+To successfully complete the install the role requires `python-netaddr` on the controller to be able to manage IP addresses. This requires that the library is available on your local machine (or that `pip` is installed to be able to run). This will likely mean that running the role will require `sudo` access to your local machine and therefore you may need the `-K` flag to be able to enter your local machine password if you are not running under root.
+
+## Zabbix Versions

+
+# Getting started
+
+## Minimal Configuration
+
+In order to get the Zabbix Agent running, you'll have to define the following properties before executing the role:
+
+* `zabbix_agent_version`
+* `zabbix_agent(2)_server`
+* `zabbix_agent(2)_serveractive` (When using active checks)
+
+The `zabbix_agent_version` is optional. The latest available major.minor version of Zabbix will be installed on the host(s). If you want to use an older version, please specify this in the major.minor format. Example: `zabbix_agent_version: 4.0`, `zabbix_agent_version: 3.4` or `zabbix_agent_version: 2.2`.
+
+The `zabbix_agent(2)_server` (and `zabbix_agent(2)_serveractive`) should contain the ip or fqdn of the host running the Zabbix Server.
+
+## Issues
+
+Due to issue discussed on [#291](https://github.com/dj-wasabi/ansible-zabbix-agent/issues/291), the Ansible Version 2.9.{0,1,2} isn't working correctly on Windows related targets.
+
+# Role Variables
+
+## Main variables
+
+The following is an overview of all available configuration default for this role.
+
+### Overall Zabbix
+
+* `zabbix_agent_version`: This is the version of zabbix. Default: The highest supported version for the operating system. Can be overridden to 6.2, 6.0, 5.4, 5.2 5.0, 4.4, 4.0, 3.4, 3.2, 3.0, 2.4, or 2.2. Previously the variable `zabbix_version` was used directly but it could cause [some inconvenience](https://github.com/dj-wasabi/ansible-zabbix-agent/pull/303). That variable is maintained by retrocompativility.
+* `zabbix_agent_version_minor`: When you want to specify a minor version to be installed. Is also used for `zabbix_sender` and `zabbix_get`. RedHat only. Default set to: `*` (latest available)
+* `zabbix_repo`: Default: `zabbix`
+ * `epel`: install agent from EPEL repo
+ * `zabbix`: (default) install agent from Zabbix repo
+ * `other`: install agent from pre-existing or other repo
+* `zabbix_repo_yum`: A list with Yum repository configuration.
+* `zabbix_repo_yum_schema`: Default: `https`. Option to change the web schema for the yum repository(http/https)
+* `zabbix_repo_yum_disabled`: A string with repository names that should be disabled when installing Zabbix component specific packages. Is only used when `zabbix_repo_yum_enabled` contains 1 or more repositories. Default `*`.
+* `zabbix_repo_yum_enabled`: A list with repository names that should be enabled when installing Zabbix component specific packages.
+
+### SElinux
+
+* `zabbix_selinux`: Default: `False`. Enables an SELinux policy so that the server will run.
+
+### Zabbix Agent
+
+* `zabbix_agent_ip`: The IP address of the host. When not provided, it will be determined via the `ansible_default_ipv4` fact.
+* `zabbix_agent2`: Default: `False`. When you want to install the `Zabbix Agent2` instead of the "old" `Zabbix Agent`.
+* `zabbix_agent_listeninterface`: Interface zabbix-agent listens on. Leave blank for all.
+* `zabbix_agent_package_remove`: If `zabbix_agent2: True` and you want to remove the old installation. Default: `False`.
+* `zabbix_agent_package`: The name of the zabbix-agent package. Default: `zabbix-agent`. In case for EPEL, it is automatically renamed.
+* `zabbix_sender_package`: The name of the zabbix-sender package. Default: `zabbix-sender`. In case for EPEL, it is automatically renamed.
+* `zabbix_get_package`: The name of the zabbix-get package. Default: `zabbix-get`. In case for EPEL, it is automatically renamed.
+* `zabbix_agent_package_state`: If Zabbix-agent needs to be `present` or `latest`.
+* `zabbix_agent_interfaces`: A list that configured the interfaces you can use when configuring via API.
+* `zabbix_agent_install_agent_only`: Only install the Zabbix Agent and not the `zabbix-sender` and `zabbix-get` packages. Default: `False`
+* `zabbix_agent_userparameters`: Default: `[]]`. List of userparameter names and scripts (if any). Detailed description is given in the [Deploying Userparameters](#deploying-userparameters) section.
+ * `name`: Userparameter name (should be the same with userparameter template file name)
+ * `scripts_dir`: Directory name of the custom scripts needed for userparameters
+* `zabbix_agent_userparameters_templates_src`: indicates the relative path (from `templates/`) where userparameter templates are searched
+* `zabbix_agent_userparameters_scripts_src`: indicates the relative path (from `files/`) where userparameter scripts are searched
+* `zabbix_agent_runas_user`: Drop privileges to a specific, existing user on the system. Only has effect if run as 'root' and AllowRoot is disabled.
+* `zabbix_agent_become_on_localhost`: Default: `True`. Set to `False` if you don't need to elevate privileges on localhost to install packages locally with pip.
+* `zabbix_install_pip_packages`: Default: `True`. Set to `False` if you don't want to install the required pip packages. Useful when you control your environment completely.
+* `zabbix_agent_apt_priority`: Add a weight (`Pin-Priority`) for the APT repository.
+* `zabbix_agent_conf_mode`: Default: `0644`. The "mode" for the Zabbix configuration file.
+* `zabbix_agent_dont_detect_ip`: Default `false`. When set to `true`, it won't detect available ip addresses on the host and no need for the Python module `netaddr` to be installed.
+* `zabbix_agent_chassis`: Default: `false`. When set to `true`, it will give Zabbix Agent access to the Linux DMI table allowing system.hw.chassis info to populate.
+
+### Zabbix Agent vs Zabbix Agent 2 configuration
+
+The following provides an overview of all the properties that can be set in the Zabbix Agent configuration file. When `(2)` is used in the name of the property, like `zabbix_agent(2)_pidfile`, it will show that you can configure `zabbix_agent_pidfile` for the Zabbix Agent configuration file and `zabbix_agent2_pidfile` for the Zabbix Agent 2 configuration file.
+

+
+## TLS Specific configuration
+
+These variables are specific for Zabbix 3.0 and higher. When `(2)` is used in the name of the property, like `zabbix_agent(2)_tlsconnect`, it will show that you can configure `zabbix_agent_tlsconnect` for the Zabbix Agent configuration file and `zabbix_agent2_tlsconnect` for the Zabbix Agent 2 configuration file.
+
+* `zabbix_agent(2)_tlsconnect`: How the agent should connect to server or proxy. Used for active checks.
+ Possible values:
+ * unencrypted
+ * psk
+ * cert
+* `zabbix_agent(2)_tlsaccept`: What incoming connections to accept.
+ Possible values:
+ * unencrypted
+ * psk
+ * cert
+* `zabbix_agent(2)_tlscafile`: Full pathname of a file containing the top-level CA(s) certificates for peer certificate verification.

+* `zabbix_agent(2)_tlsservercertsubject`: Allowed server certificate subject.
+* `zabbix_agent(2)_tlscertfile`: Full pathname of a file containing the agent certificate or certificate chain.
+* `zabbix_agent(2)_tlskeyfile`: Full pathname of a file containing the agent private key.
+* `zabbix_agent(2)_tlspskidentity`: Unique, case sensitive string used to identify the pre-shared key.
+* `zabbix_agent(2)_tlspskidentity_file`: Full pathname of a file containing the pre-shared key identity.

+* `zabbix_agent(2)_tlspsk_secret`: The pre-shared secret key that should be placed in the file configured with `agent_tlspskfile`.
+* `zabbix_agent(2)_tlspsk_auto`: Enables auto generation and storing of individual pre-shared keys and identities on clients. Is false by default. If set to true and if `zabbix_agent_tlspskfile` and `zabbix_agent_tlspsk_secret` are undefined, it generates the files `/etc/zabbix/tls_psk_auto.identity` and `/etc/zabbix/tls_psk_auto.secret`, which are populated by values automatically (identity is set to hostname, underscore and 4 random alphanumeric digits; secret is 64 random alphanumeric digits) in such a way that the values are generated once and are never overwritten.
+
+The results are stored in the Ansible variables `zabbix_agent_tlspskidentity` and `zabbix_agent_tlspsk_secret`, so that they may be used later in the code, for example with [zabbix_host](https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/latest/collections/community/zabbix/zabbix_host_module.html) to configure the Zabbix server or with `debug: msg:` to display them to the user.
+
+## Zabbix API variables

+
+## Windows Variables
+
+**NOTE**
+
+_Supporting Windows is a best effort (I don't have the possibility to either test/verify changes on the various amount of available Windows instances). PRs specific to Windows will almost immediately be merged, unless someone is able to provide a Windows test mechanism via Travis for Pull Requests._
+When `(2)` is used in the name of the property, like `zabbix_agent(2)_win_logfile`, it will show that you can configure `zabbix_agent_win_logfile` for the Zabbix Agent configuration file and `zabbix_agent2_win_logfile` for the Zabbix Agent 2 configuration file.
+
+Otherwise it just for the Zabbix Agent or for the Zabbix Agent 2.
+
+* `zabbix(2)_win_package`: file name pattern (zip only). This will be used to generate the `zabbix(2)_win_download_link` variable.
+* `zabbix_version_long`: The long (major.minor.patch) version of the Zabbix Agent. This will be used to generate the `zabbix(2)_win_package` and `zabbix(2)_win_download_link` variables. This takes precedence over `zabbix_agent_version`.

+* `zabbix_mac_download_link`: The download url to the `pkg` file.
+
+## Docker Variables
+
+When you don't want to install the Zabbix Agent on the host, but would like to run it in a container then these properties are useful. When `zabbix_agent_docker` is set to `True`, then a
+Docker image will be downloaded and a Container will be started. No other installations will be done on the host, with the exception of the PSK file and the "Zabbix Include Directory".
+
+The following directories are mounted in the Container:
+
+```
+ - /etc/zabbix/zabbix_agentd.d:/etc/zabbix/zabbix_agentd.d
+ - /:/hostfs:ro
+ - /etc:/hostfs/etc:ro
+ - /proc:/hostfs/proc:ro
+ - /sys:/hostfs/sys:ro
+ - /var/run:/var/run
+```
+
+Keep in mind that using the Zabbix Agent in a Container requires changes to the Zabbix Template for Linux as `/proc`, `/sys` and `/etc` are mounted in a directory `/hostfs`.
+
+* `zabbix_agent_docker`: Default: `False`. When set to `True`, it will install a Docker container on the target host instead of installation on the target.
+* `zabbix_agent_docker_state`: Default: `started`

+* `zabbix_agent_docker_user_gid`: The group id of the zabbix user in the Container.
+* `zabbix_agent_docker_user_uid`: The user id of the zabbix user in the Container.
+* `zabbix_agent_docker_network_mode`: The name of the (Docker) network that should be used for the Container. Default `host`.
+* `zabbix_agent_docker_restart_policy`: Default: `unless-stopped`. The restart policy of the Container.
+* `zabbix_agent_docker_privileged`: When set to `True`, the container is running in privileged mode.
+* `zabbix_agent_docker_ports`: A list with `<PORT>:<PORT>` values to open ports to the container.
+* `zabbix_agent_docker_security_opts`: A list with available security options.
+* `zabbix_agent_docker_volumes`: A list with all directories that needs to be available in the Container.
+* `zabbix_agent_docker_env`: A dict with all environment variables that needs to be set for the Container.
+
+## FirewallD/Iptables
+
+* `zabbix_agent_firewall_enable`: If IPtables needs to be updated by opening an TCP port for port configured in `zabbix_agent_listenport`.
+* `zabbix_agent_firewall_source`: When provided, IPtables will be configuring to only allow traffic from this IP address/range.
+* `zabbix_agent_firewalld_enable`: If firewalld needs to be updated by opening an TCP port for port configured in `zabbix_agent_listenport` and `zabbix_agent_jmx_listenport` if defined.
+* `zabbix_agent_firewalld_source`: When provided, firewalld will be configuring to only allow traffic for IP configured in `zabbix_agent_server`.
+* `zabbix_agent_firewalld_zone`: When provided, the firewalld rule will be attached to this zone (only if zabbix_agent_firewalld_enable is set to true). The default behavior is to use the default zone define by the remote host firewalld configuration.
+* `zabbix_agent_firewall_action`: Default: `insert`. When to `insert` the rule or to `append` to IPTables.
+* `zabbix_agent_firewall_chain`: Default `INPUT`. Which `chain` to add the rule to IPTables.
+
+
+## IPMI variables
+
+* `zabbix_agent_ipmi_authtype`: IPMI authentication algorithm. Possible values are 1 (callback), 2 (user), 3 (operator), 4 (admin), 5 (OEM), with 2 being the API default.
+* `zabbix_agent_ipmi_password`: IPMI password.
+* `zabbix_agent_ipmi_privilege`: IPMI privilege level. Possible values are 1 (callback), 2 (user), 3 (operator), 4 (admin), 5 (OEM), with 2 being the API default.
+* `zabbix_agent_ipmi_username`: IPMI username.
+
+## proxy
+
+When the target host does not have access to the internet, but you do have a proxy available then the following properties needs to be set to download the packages via the proxy:
+
+* `zabbix_http_proxy`
+* `zabbix_https_proxy`
+
+# Dependencies
+
+There are no dependencies on other roles.
+
+# Example Playbook
+
+## zabbix_agent2_plugins
+
+Specifically for the Zabbix Agent 2, a list of extra plugins can be configured. The following provides an overview of configuring the `SystemRun` plugin by setting the `LogRemoteCommands` to `0`:
+
+```yaml
+zabbix_agent2_plugins:
+ - name: SystemRun
+ options:
+ - parameter: LogRemoteCommands
+ value: 0
+```
+
+In the `zabbix_agent2.conf` an entry will be created with the following content:
+
+```
+Plugins.SystemRun.LogRemoteCommands=0
+```
+
+## agent_interfaces
+
+This will configure the Zabbix Agent interface on the host.
+```yaml
+zabbix_agent_interfaces:
+ - type: 1
+ main: 1
+ useip: "{{ zabbix_useuip }}"
+ ip: "{{ zabbix_agent_ip }}"
+ dns: "{{ ansible_fqdn }}"
+ port: "{{ zabbix_agent_listenport }}"
+```
+
+## Other interfaces
+
+You can also configure the `zabbix_agent_interfaces` to add/configure snmp, jmx and ipmi interfaces.
+
+You'll have to use one of the following type numbers when configuring it:
+
+| Type Interface | Nr |
+|-----------------|-------|
+| Zabbix Agent | 1 |
+| snmp | 2 |
+| ipmi | 3 |
+| jmx | 4 |
+
+Configuring a snmp interface will look like this:
+
+```
+zabbix_agent_interfaces:
+ - type: 2
+ main: 1
+ useip: "{{ zabbix_useuip }}"
+ ip: "{{ agent_ip }}"
+ dns: "{{ ansible_fqdn }}"
+ port: "{{ agent_listenport }}"
+```
+
+## Vars in role configuration
+Including an example of how to use your role (for instance, with variables passed in as parameters) is always nice for users too:
+
+```yaml
+ - hosts: all
+ roles:
+ - role: community.zabbix.zabbix_agent
+ zabbix_agent_server: 192.168.33.30
+ zabbix_agent_serveractive: 192.168.33.30
+ zabbix_api_server_url: http://zabbix.example.com
+ zabbix_api_use: true # use zabbix_api_create_hosts and/or zabbix_api_create_hostgroup from 0.8.0
+ zabbix_api_login_user: Admin
+ zabbix_api_login_pass: zabbix
+ zabbix_agent_host_state: present
+ zabbix_host_groups:
+ - Linux Servers
+ zabbix_agent_link_templates:
+ - Template OS Linux
+ - Apache APP Template
+ zabbix_agent_macros:
+ - macro_key: apache_type
+ macro_value: reverse_proxy
+ macro_type: text
+ zabbix_agent_tags:
+ - tag: environment
+ value: production
+```
+
+## Combination of group_vars and playbook
+You can also use the group_vars or the host_vars files for setting the variables needed for this role. File you should change: `group_vars/all` or `host_vars/<zabbix_server>` (Where <zabbix_server> is the hostname of the machine running Zabbix Server)
+
+```yaml
+ zabbix_agent_server: 192.168.33.30
+ zabbix_agent_serveractive: 192.168.33.30
+ zabbix_api_server_url: http://zabbix.example.com
+ zabbix_api_use: true # use zabbix_api_create_hosts and/or zabbix_api_create_hostgroup from 0.8.0
+ zabbix_api_login_user: Admin
+ zabbix_api_login_pass: zabbix
+ zabbix_agent_host_state: present
+ zabbix_host_groups:
+ - Linux Servers
+ zabbix_agent_link_templates:
+ - Template OS Linux
+ - Apache APP Template
+ zabbix_agent_macros:
+ - macro_key: apache_type
+ macro_value: reverse_proxy
+ zabbix_agent_tags:
+ - tag: environment
+ value: production
+```
+
+and in the playbook only specifying:
+
+```yaml
+ - hosts: all
+ roles:
+ - role: community.zabbix.zabbix_agent
+```
+
+## Example for TLS PSK encrypted agent communication
+
+Variables e.g. in the playbook or in `host_vars/myhost`:
+
+```yaml
+ zabbix_agent_tlsaccept: psk
+ zabbix_agent_tlsconnect: psk
+ zabbix_agent_tlspskidentity: "myhost PSK"
+ zabbix_agent_tlspsk_secret: b7e3d380b9d400676d47198ecf3592ccd4795a59668aa2ade29f0003abbbd40d
+ zabbix_agent_tlspskfile: /etc/zabbix/zabbix_agent_pskfile.psk
+```
+
+# Molecule
+
+This role is configured to be tested with Molecule. You can find on this page some more information regarding Molecule:
+
+* http://werner-dijkerman.nl/2016/07/10/testing-ansible-roles-with-molecule-testinfra-and-docker/
+* http://werner-dijkerman.nl/2016/07/27/extending-ansible-role-testing-with-molecule-by-adding-group_vars-dependencies-and-using-travis-ci/
+* http://werner-dijkerman.nl/2016/07/31/testing-ansible-roles-in-a-cluster-setup-with-docker-and-molecule/
+
+With each Pull Request, Molecule will be executed via travis.ci. Pull Requests will only be merged once these tests run successfully.
+
+# Deploying Userparameters
+
+The following steps are required to install custom userparameters and/or scripts:
+
+* Put the desired userparameter file in the `templates/userparameters` directory and name it as `<userparameter_name>.j2`. For example: `templates/userparameters/mysql.j2`. You can change the default directory to a custom one modifying `zabbix_agent_userparameters_templates_src` variable.
+* Put the scripts directory (if any) in the `files/scripts` directory. For example: `files/scripts/mysql`. You can change the default directory to a custom one modifying `zabbix_agent_userparameters_scripts_src` variable.
+* Add `zabbix_agent_userparameters` variable to the playbook as a list of dictionaries and define userparameter name and scripts directory name (if there are no scripts just no not specify the `scripts_dir` variable).
+
+Example:
+
+```yaml
+- hosts: mysql_servers
+ tasks:
+ - include_role:
+ name: community.zabbix.zabbix_agent
+ vars:
+ zabbix_agent_server: zabbix.mydomain.com
+ zabbix_agent_userparameters:
+ - name: mysql
+ scripts_dir: mysql
+ - name: galera
+
+```
+
+Example of the "templates/userparameters/mysql.j2" file:
+
+```
+UserParameter=mysql.ping_to,mysqladmin -uroot ping | grep -c alive

+* `zabbix_javagateway_startpollers`: Default: `5`. The amount of pollers to start.
+
+### proxy
+
+When the target host does not have access to the internet, but you do have a proxy available then the following properties needs to be set to download the packages via the proxy:
+
+* `zabbix_http_proxy`
+* `zabbix_https_proxy`
+
+# Dependencies
+
+The java gateway can be installed on either the zabbix-server or the zabbix-proxy machine. So one of these should be installed. You'll need to provide an parameter in your playbook for using the javagateway.
+
+When using the zabbix-server:
+```yaml
+ roles:
+ - role: community.zabbix.zabbix_server
+ zabbix_server_javagateway: 192.168.1.2
+```
+
+or when using the zabbix-proxy:
+```yaml
+ roles:
+ - role: community.zabbix.zabbix_proxy
+ zabbix_proxy_server: 192.168.1.1
+ zabbix_proxy_javagateway: 192.168.1.2
+```
+
+# Example Playbook
+
+Including an example of how to use your role (for instance, with variables passed in as parameters) is always nice for users too:
+
+```yaml
+ - hosts: zabbix-server
+ sudo: yes
+ roles:
+ - role: community.zabbix.zabbix_server
+ zabbix_server_javagateway: 192.168.1.2
+ - role: community.zabbix.zabbix_javagateway
+```
+

+# Overview
+
+## Operating systems
+
+This role will work on the following operating systems:
+
+ * Red Hat
+ * Debian
+ * Ubuntu
+
+So, you'll need one of those operating systems.. :-)
+Please send Pull Requests or suggestions when you want to use this role for other Operating systems.
+
+# Requirements
+## Ansible 2.10 and higher
+
+With the release of Ansible 2.10, modules have been moved into collections. With the exception of ansible.builtin modules, this means additonal collections must be installed in order to use modules such as seboolean (now ansible.posix.seboolean). The following collection is now required: `ansible.posix`. Installing the collection:
+
+```sh
+ansible-galaxy collection install ansible.posix
+```
+
+If you are willing to create proxy in Zabbix via API as a part of this role execution then you need to install `ansible.netcommon` collection too:
+
+```
+ansible-galaxy collection install ansible.netcommon
+```
+
+### MySQL
+
+When you are a MySQL user and using Ansible 2.10 or newer, then there is a dependency on the collection named `community.mysql`. This collections are needed as the `mysql_` modules are now part of collections and not standard in Ansible anymmore. Installing the collection:
+
+```sh
+ansible-galaxy collection install community.mysql
+```
+
+### PostgreSQL
+
+When you are a PostgreSQL user and using Ansible 2.10 or newer, then there is a dependency on the collection named `community.postgresql`. This collections are needed as the `postgresql_` modules are now part of collections and not standard in Ansible anymmore. Installing the collection:
+
+```sh
+ansible-galaxy collection install community.postgresql
+```
+

+
+## proxy
+
+When the target host does not have access to the internet, but you do have a proxy available then the following properties needs to be set to download the packages via the proxy:
+
+* `zabbix_http_proxy`
+* `zabbix_https_proxy`
+
+## Database
+
+With Zabbix Proxy you can make use of 2 different databases:
+
+* `mysql`
+* `postgresql`
+* `SQLite3`
+
+In the following paragraphs we dive into both setups.
+
+### MySQL
+
+To make the Zabbix Proxy work with a `MySQL` database, there are 2 types on setup:
+
+1. Local setup, `MySQL` running on same host as the Zabbix Proxy;
+2. Separate setup, `MySQL` running on a different host than the Zabbix Proxy.
+
+#### Local Setup
+
+We need to have the following dependencies met:
+
+1. Find an (Ansible) role that will install a `MySQL` instance on the host. Example: `geerlingguy.mysql` can be used, but also others can be used. Please make sure that before installing the Zabbix Proxy, you have a fully functional `MySQL` instance running.
+2. We need to set some variables, either as input for the playbook or set them into the `group_vars` or `host_vars` (Your preference choice). We need to set the following properties:
+
+```yaml
+zabbix_proxy_database: mysql
+zabbix_proxy_database_long: mysql
+zabbix_proxy_dbport: 3306
+zabbix_proxy_dbpassword: <SOME_SECRET_STRING>
+```
+
+Please generate a value for the `zabbix_proxy_dbpassword` property (Maybe use `ansible-vault` for this). The zabbix-proxy role will create an database and username (With the provided value for the password) in `MySQL`.
+3. Execute the role by running the Ansible playbook that calls this role. At the end of this run, the Zabbix Proxy with `MySQL` will be running.
+
+#### Separate Setup
+
+We need to have the following dependencies met:
+
+1. We need to either have a `MySQL` instance running somewhere in the environment. If this is the case, we need to have a username/password combination that is allowed to create a database and an user account. If there isn't one, please make sure there is one.
+2. We need to set some variables, either as input for the playbook or set them into the `group_vars` or `host_vars` (Your preference choice). We need to set the following properties:
+
+```yaml
+zabbix_proxy_database: mysql
+zabbix_proxy_database_long: mysql
+zabbix_proxy_dbport: 3306
+zabbix_proxy_dbhost: mysql-host
+zabbix_proxy_dbhost_run_install: false
+zabbix_proxy_dbpassword: <SOME_SECRET_STRING>
+zabbix_proxy_privileged_host: '%'
+zabbix_proxy_mysql_login_host: mysql-host
+zabbix_proxy_mysql_login_user: root
+zabbix_proxy_mysql_login_password: changeme
+zabbix_proxy_mysql_login_port: 3306
+```
+
+Please generate a value for the `zabbix_proxy_dbpassword` property (Maybe use `ansible-vault` for this). The zabbix-proxy role will create an database and username (With the provided value for the password) in `MySQL`.
+
+The `zabbix_proxy_privileged_host` can be set to the hostname/ip of the host running Zabbix Proxy for security related purposes. Also make sure that `zabbix_proxy_mysql_login_password` is set to the correct password for the user provided with `zabbix_proxy_mysql_login_host` to create a database and user in the `MySQL` instance.
+
+3. Execute the role by running the Ansible playbook that calls this role. At the end of this run, the Zabbix Proxy with `MySQL` on a different host will be running.
+
+### PostgreSQL
+
+To make the Zabbix Proxy work with a `PgSQL` database, there are 2 types on setup:
+
+1. Local setup, `PgSQL` running on same host as the Zabbix Proxy;
+2. Separate setup, `PgSQL` running on a different host than the Zabbix Proxy.
+
+#### Local Setup
+
+We need to have the following dependencies met:
+
+1. Find an (Ansible) role that will install a `PgSQL` instance on the host. Example: `geerlingguy.postgresql` can be used, but also others can be used. Please make sure that before installing the Zabbix Proxy, you have a fully functional `PgSQL` instance running.
+2. We need to set some variables, either as input for the playbook or set them into the `group_vars` or `host_vars` (Your preference choice). We need to set the following properties:
+
+```yaml
+zabbix_proxy_database: pgsql
+zabbix_proxy_database_long: postgresql
+zabbix_proxy_dbport: 5432
+zabbix_proxy_dbpassword: <SOME_SECRET_STRING>
+```
+
+Please generate a value for the `zabbix_proxy_dbpassword` property (Maybe use `ansible-vault` for this). The zabbix-proxy role will create an database and username (With the provided value for the password) in `PgSQL`.
+3. Execute the role by running the Ansible playbook that calls this role. At the end of this run, the Zabbix Proxy with `PgSQL` will be running.
+
+#### Separate Setup
+
+We need to have the following dependencies met:
+
+1. We need to either have a `PgSQL` instance running somewhere in the environment. If this is the case, we need to have a username/password combination that is allowed to create a database and an user account. If there isn't one, please make sure there is one.
+2. We need to set some variables, either as input for the playbook or set them into the `group_vars` or `host_vars` (Your preference choice). We need to set the following properties:
+
+```yaml
+zabbix_proxy_database: pgsql
+zabbix_proxy_database_long: postgresql
+zabbix_proxy_dbport: 5432
+zabbix_proxy_dbhost: pgsql-host
+zabbix_proxy_dbhost_run_install: false
+zabbix_proxy_dbpassword: <SOME_SECRET_STRING>
+zabbix_proxy_privileged_host: '%'
+zabbix_proxy_pgsql_login_host: pgsql-host
+zabbix_proxy_pgsql_login_user: postgres
+zabbix_proxy_pgsql_login_password: changeme
+zabbix_proxy_pgsql_login_port: 5432
+```
+
+Please generate a value for the `zabbix_proxy_dbpassword` property (Maybe use `ansible-vault` for this). The zabbix-proxy role will create an database and username (With the provided value for the password) in `PgSQL`.
+
+The `zabbix_proxy_privileged_host` can be set to the hostname/ip of the host running Zabbix Proxy for security related purposes. Also make sure that `zabbix_proxy_mysql_login_password` is set to the correct password for the user provided with `zabbix_proxy_mysql_login_host` to create a database and user in the `PgSQL` instance.
+
+3. Execute the role by running the Ansible playbook that calls this role. At the end of this run, the Zabbix Proxy with `PgSQL` on a different host will be running.zabbix_proxy_
+
+### SQLite3
+
+The SQLite3 can only be used on the same host as on which the Zabbix Proxy is running. If you want to use a seperate host for running the database for the proxy, please consider going for MySQL or PostGreSQL.
+
+The following properties needs to be set when using `SQLite3` as the database:
+
+```yaml
+zabbix_proxy_database: sqlite3
+zabbix_proxy_database_long: sqlite3
+zabbix_proxy_dbname: /path/to/sqlite3.db
+```
+
+NOTE: When using `zabbix_proxy_dbname: zabbix_proxy` (Which is default with this role), it will automatically be stored on `/var/lib/zabbix/zabbix_proxy.db`
+
+## Zabbix API variables
+
+These variables need to be overridden when you want to make use of the Zabbix API for automatically creating and or updating proxies, i.e. when `zabbix_api_create_proxy` is set to `True`.
+
+* `zabbix_api_http_user`: The http user to access zabbix url with Basic Auth.
+* `zabbix_api_http_password`: The http password to access zabbix url with Basic Auth.
+* `zabbix_api_server_host`: The IP or hostname/FQDN of Zabbix server. Example: zabbix.example.com
+* `zabbix_api_server_port`: TCP port to use to connect to Zabbix server. Example: 8080
+* `zabbix_api_use_ssl`: yes (Default) if we need to connect to Zabbix server over HTTPS
+* `zabbix_api_validate_certs` : yes (Default) if we need to validate tls certificates of the API. Use `no` in case self-signed certificates are used
+* `zabbix_api_login_user`: Username of user which has API access.
+* `zabbix_api_login_pass`: Password for the user which has API access.
+* `ansible_zabbix_url_path`: URL path if Zabbix WebUI running on non-default (zabbix) path, e.g. if http://<FQDN>/zabbixeu then set to `zabbixeu`
+* `zabbix_api_create_proxy`: When you want to enable the Zabbix API to create/delete the proxy. This has to be set to `True` if you want to make use of `zabbix_proxy_state`. Default: `False`
+* `zabbix_proxy_name`: name of the Zabbix proxy as it is seen by Zabbix server
+* `zabbix_proxy_state`: present (Default) if the proxy needs to be created or absent if you want to delete it. This only works when `zabbix_api_create_proxy` is set to `True`.
+* `zabbix_proxy_status`: active (Default) if the proxy needs to be active or passive.
+* `zabbix_api_timeout`: timeout for API calls (default to 30 seconds)
+
+# Example Playbook
+
+Including an example of how to use your role (for instance, with variables passed in as parameters) is always nice for users too:
+
+```yaml
+ - hosts: zabbix-proxy
+ roles:
+ - role: community.zabbix.zabbix_proxy
+ zabbix_proxy_server: 192.168.1.1
+ zabbix_proxy_database: mysql
+ zabbix_proxy_database_long: mysql
+```

+# Overview
+
+This is a Ansible role for installing and maintaining the zabbix-server. This will only install the Zabbix Server component and not the Zabbix Web.
+
+# Requirements
+
+## Operating systems
+
+This role will work on the following operating systems:
+
+ * Red Hat
+ * Debian
+ * Ubuntu
+
+So, you'll need one of those operating systems.. :-)
+Please send Pull Requests or suggestions when you want to use this role for other Operating systems.
+
+## Ansible 2.10 and higher
+
+With the release of Ansible 2.10, modules have been moved into collections. With the exception of ansible.builtin modules, this means additonal collections must be installed in order to use modules such as seboolean (now ansible.posix.seboolean). The following collection is now required: `ansible.posix`. Installing the collection:
+
+```sh
+ansible-galaxy collection install ansible.posix
+```
+
+### MySQL
+
+When you are a MySQL user and using Ansible 2.10 or newer, then there is a dependency on the collection named `community.mysql`. This collections are needed as the `mysql_` modules are now part of collections and not standard in Ansible anymmore. Installing the collection:
+
+```sh
+ansible-galaxy collection install community.mysql
+```
+
+### PostgreSQL
+
+When you are a PostgreSQL user and using Ansible 2.10 or newer, then there is a dependency on the collection named `community.postgresql`. This collections are needed as the `postgresql_` modules are now part of collections and not standard in Ansible anymmore. Installing the collection:
+
+```sh
+ansible-galaxy collection install community.postgresql
+```
+

+
+# Installation
+
+Installing this role is very simple: `ansible-galaxy install community.zabbix.zabbix_server`
+
+Please be aware that this role only installs the Zabbix Server and not the Zabbix Web. If you do want to have a Zabbix Web, please execute the following command: `ansible-galaxy install community.zabbix.zabbix_web`
+
+# Role Variables
+
+## Main variables
+
+The following is an overview of all available configuration default for this role.
+
+### Overall Zabbix
+
+* `zabbix_server_version`: This is the version of zabbix. Default: The highest supported version for the operating system. Can be overridden to 6.2, 6.0, 5.4, 5.2, 5.0, 4.4, 4.0, 3.4, 3.2, 3.0, 2.4, or 2.2. Previously the variable `zabbix_version` was used directly but it could cause [some inconvenience](https://github.com/dj-wasabi/ansible-zabbix-agent/pull/303). That variable is maintained by retrocompativility.
+* `zabbix_server_version_minor`: When you want to specify a minor version to be installed. RedHat only. Default set to: `*` (latest available)
+* `zabbix_repo`: Default: `zabbix`
+ * `epel`: install agent from EPEL repo
+ * `zabbix`: (default) install agent from Zabbix repo
+ * `other`: install agent from pre-existing or other repo
+* `zabbix_repo_yum`: A list with Yum repository configuration.
+* `zabbix_repo_yum_schema`: Default: `https`. Option to change the web schema for the yum repository(http/https)
+* `zabbix_repo_yum_disabled`: A string with repository names that should be disabled when installing Zabbix component specific packages. Is only used when `zabbix_repo_yum_enabled` contains 1 or more repositories. Default `*`.
+* `zabbix_repo_yum_enabled`: A list with repository names that should be enabled when installing Zabbix component specific packages.
+* `zabbix_service_state`: Default: `started`. Can be overridden to stopped if needed
+* `zabbix_service_enabled`: Default: `True` Can be overridden to `False` if needed
+
+### SElinux
+
+* `zabbix_selinux`: Default: `False`. Enables an SELinux policy so that the server will run.

+* `zabbix_server_dbtlscipher13`: The list of encryption ciphersuites that Zabbix server permits for TLSv1.3 protocol. Supported only for MySQL, starting from version 8.0.16. This parameter is supported since Zabbix 5.0.0.
+
+### Custom Zabbix Scripts
+
+Define these variables to copy scripts to your respective scripts path.
+
+* `zabbix_server_alertscripts`: List of alertscripts to be added to `zabbix_server_alertscriptspath`
+* `zabbix_server_externalscripts`: List of alertscripts to be added to `zabbix_server_externalscriptspath`
+
+Example:

+```yaml
+ zabbix_server_alertscripts:
+ - path: "{{ lookup('first_found', 'zabbix-scripts/somescript.php') }}"
+ name: "somescript.php"
+```
+
+## proxy
+
+When the target host does not have access to the internet, but you do have a proxy available then the following properties needs to be set to download the packages via the proxy:
+
+* `zabbix_http_proxy`
+* `zabbix_https_proxy`
+
+## Database
+
+With Zabbix Server you can make use of 2 different databases:
+
+* `mysql`
+* `postgresql`
+
+In the following paragraphs we dive into both setups.
+
+### MySQL
+
+To make the Zabbix Server work with a `MySQL` database, there are 2 types on setup:
+
+1. Local setup, `MySQL` running on same host as the Zabbix Server;
+2. Separate setup, `MySQL` running on a different host than the Zabbix Server.
+
+#### Local Setup
+
+We need to have the following dependencies met:
+
+1. Find an (Ansible) role that will install a `MySQL` instance on the host. Example: `geerlingguy.mysql` can be used, but also others can be used. Please make sure that before installing the Zabbix Server, you have a fully functional `MySQL` instance running.
+2. We need to set some variables, either as input for the playbook or set them into the `group_vars` or `host_vars` (Your preference choice). We need to set the following properties:
+
+```yaml
+zabbix_server_database: mysql
+zabbix_server_database_long: mysql
+zabbix_server_dbport: 3306
+zabbix_server_dbpassword: <SOME_SECRET_STRING>
+```
+
+Please generate a value for the `zabbix_server_dbpassword` property (Maybe use `ansible-vault` for this). The zabbix-server role will create an database and username (With the provided value for the password) in `MySQL`.
+3. Execute the role by running the Ansible playbook that calls this role. At the end of this run, the Zabbix Server with `MySQL` will be running.
+
+#### Separate Setup
+
+We need to have the following dependencies met:
+
+1. We need to either have a `MySQL` instance running somewhere in the environment. If this is the case, we need to have a username/password combination that is allowed to create a database and an user account. If there isn't one, please make sure there is one.
+2. We need to set some variables, either as input for the playbook or set them into the `group_vars` or `host_vars` (Your preference choice). We need to set the following properties:
+
+```yaml
+zabbix_server_database: mysql
+zabbix_server_database_long: mysql
+zabbix_server_dbport: 3306
+zabbix_server_dbhost: mysql-host
+zabbix_server_dbhost_run_install: false
+zabbix_server_dbpassword: <SOME_SECRET_STRING>
+zabbix_server_privileged_host: '%'
+zabbix_server_mysql_login_host: mysql-host
+zabbix_server_mysql_login_user: root
+zabbix_server_mysql_login_password: changeme
+zabbix_server_mysql_login_port: 3306
+```
+
+Please generate a value for the `zabbix_server_dbpassword` property (Maybe use `ansible-vault` for this). The zabbix-server role will create an database and username (With the provided value for the password) in `MySQL`.
+
+The `zabbix_server_privileged_host` can be set to the hostname/ip of the host running Zabbix Server for security related purposes. Also make sure that `zabbix_server_mysql_login_password` is set to the correct password for the user provided with `zabbix_server_mysql_login_host` to create a database and user in the `MySQL` instance.
+
+3. Execute the role by running the Ansible playbook that calls this role. At the end of this run, the Zabbix Server with `MySQL` on a different host will be running.
+
+### PostgreSQL
+
+To make the Zabbix Server work with a `PgSQL` database, there are 2 types on setup:
+
+1. Local setup, `PgSQL` running on same host as the Zabbix Server;
+2. Separate setup, `PgSQL` running on a different host than the Zabbix Server.
+
+#### Local Setup
+
+We need to have the following dependencies met:
+
+1. Find an (Ansible) role that will install a `PgSQL` instance on the host. Example: `geerlingguy.postgresql` can be used, but also others can be used. Please make sure that before installing the Zabbix Server, you have a fully functional `PgSQL` instance running.
+2. We need to set some variables, either as input for the playbook or set them into the `group_vars` or `host_vars` (Your preference choice). We need to set the following properties:
+
+```yaml
+zabbix_server_database: pgsql
+zabbix_server_database_long: postgresql
+zabbix_server_dbport: 5432
+zabbix_server_dbpassword: <SOME_SECRET_STRING>
+```
+
+Please generate a value for the `zabbix_server_dbpassword` property (Maybe use `ansible-vault` for this). The zabbix-server role will create an database and username (With the provided value for the password) in `PgSQL`. Set `zabbix_server_dbpassword_hash_method` for PostgreSQL 10 and newer if they default to `scram-sha-256`.
+3. Execute the role by running the Ansible playbook that calls this role. At the end of this run, the Zabbix Server with `PgSQL` will be running.
+
+#### Separate Setup
+
+We need to have the following dependencies met:
+
+1. We need to either have a `PgSQL` instance running somewhere in the environment. If this is the case, we need to have a username/password combination that is allowed to create a database and an user account. If there isn't one, please make sure there is one.
+2. We need to set some variables, either as input for the playbook or set them into the `group_vars` or `host_vars` (Your preference choice). We need to set the following properties:
+
+```yaml
+zabbix_server_database: pgsql;
+zabbix_server_database_long: postgresql
+zabbix_server_dbport: 5432
+zabbix_server_dbhost: pgsql-host
+zabbix_server_dbhost_run_install: false
+zabbix_server_dbpassword: <SOME_SECRET_STRING>
+zabbix_server_privileged_host: '%'
+zabbix_server_pgsql_login_host: pgsql-host
+zabbix_server_pgsql_login_user: postgres
+zabbix_server_pgsql_login_password: changeme
+zabbix_server_pgsql_login_port: 5432
+```
+
+Please generate a value for the `zabbix_server_dbpassword` property (Maybe use `ansible-vault` for this). The zabbix-server role will create an database and username (With the provided value for the password) in `PgSQL`. Set `zabbix_server_dbpassword_hash_methodh` for PostgreSQL 10 and newer if they default to `scram-sha-256`.
+
+The `zabbix_server_privileged_host` can be set to the hostname/ip of the host running Zabbix Server for security related purposes. Also make sure that `zabbix_server_mysql_login_password` is set to the correct password for the user provided with `zabbix_server_mysql_login_host` to create a database and user in the `PgSQL` instance.
+
+3. Execute the role by running the Ansible playbook that calls this role. At the end of this run, the Zabbix Server with `PgSQL` on a different host will be running.
+
+# Example Playbook
+
+Including an example of how to use your role (for instance, with variables passed in as parameters) is always nice for users too:
+
+```yaml
+ - hosts: zabbix-server
+ roles:
+ - role: community.zabbix.zabbix_server
+ zabbix_server_database: mysql
+ zabbix_server_database_long: mysql
+```
+
+# Molecule
+
+This role is configured to be tested with Molecule. You can find on this page some more information regarding Molecule:
+
+* http://werner-dijkerman.nl/2016/07/10/testing-ansible-roles-with-molecule-testinfra-and-docker/
+* http://werner-dijkerman.nl/2016/07/27/extending-ansible-role-testing-with-molecule-by-adding-group_vars-dependencies-and-using-travis-ci/
+* http://werner-dijkerman.nl/2016/07/31/testing-ansible-roles-in-a-cluster-setup-with-docker-and-molecule/
+
+With each Pull Request, Molecule will be executed via Github Actions to validate the change on a new installation. Each PR should result into a correct working Zabbix Server installation and PR's will not be merged once this process fails.

+# Requirements
+## Operating Systems
+
+This role will work on the following operating systems:
+
+ * RedHat
+ * Debian
+ * Ubuntu
+
+So, you'll need one of those operating systems.. :-)
+Please send Pull Requests or suggestions when you want to use this role for other Operating systems.
+
+## Ansible 2.10 and higher
+
+With the release of Ansible 2.10, modules have been moved into collections. With the exception of ansible.builtin modules, this means additonal collections must be installed in order to use modules such as seboolean (now ansible.posix.seboolean). The following collections are now required: `ansible.posix`. The `community.general` collection is required when defining the `zabbix_web_htpasswd` variable (see variable section below). Installing the collections:
+
+```sh
+ansible-galaxy collection install ansible.posix
+ansible-galaxy collection install community.general
+```
+
+## Zabbix Versions
+
+See the following list of supported Operating Systems with the Zabbix releases.

+
+## proxy
+
+When the target host does not have access to the internet, but you do have a proxy available then the following properties needs to be set to download the packages via the proxy:
+
+* `zabbix_http_proxy`
+* `zabbix_https_proxy`
+
+# Example Playbook
+
+There are two ways of using the zabbix-web:
+
+* Single instance
+* Multi host setup
+
+## Single instance
+
+When there is one host running both Zabbix Server and the Zabbix Web (Running MySQL as database):
+
+```yaml
+- hosts: zabbix-server
+ become: yes
+ roles:
+ - role: geerlingguy.apache
+ - role: geerlingguy.php
+ - role: community.zabbix.zabbix_server
+ zabbix_server_database: mysql
+ zabbix_server_database_long: mysql
+ zabbix_server_dbport: 3306
+ - role: community.zabbix.zabbix_web
+ zabbix_api_server_url: zabbix.mydomain.com
+ zabbix_server_database: mysql
+ zabbix_server_database_long: mysql
+ zabbix_server_dbport: 3306
+```
+
+## Multi host setup
+
+This is a two host setup. On one host (Named: "zabbix-server") the Zabbix Server is running, and the other host (Named: zabbix-web) runs Zabbix Web (with MySQL as database):
+
+```yaml
+- hosts: zabbix-server
+ become: yes
+ roles:
+ - role: community.zabbix.zabbix_server
+ zabbix_server_database: mysql
+ zabbix_server_database_long: mysql
+ zabbix_server_dbport: 3306
+
+- hosts: zabbix-web
+ become: yes
+ roles:
+ - role: geerlingguy.apache
+ - role: geerlingguy.php
+ - role: community.zabbix.zabbix_web
+ zabbix_api_server_url: zabbix.mydomain.com
+ zabbix_server_hostname: zabbix-server
+ zabbix_server_database: mysql
+ zabbix_server_database_long: mysql
+ zabbix_server_dbport: 3306
+```
+
+## Adding Environment Variables for zabbix_web
+
+Sometimes you need to add environment variables to your
+zabbix.conf.php, for example to add LDAP CA certificates. To do this add a `zabbix_web_env` dictionary:
+
+```yaml
+- hosts: zabbix-web
+ become: yes
+ roles:
+ - role: geerlingguy.apache
+ - role: geerlingguy.php
+ php_memory_limit: "128M"
+ php_max_execution_time: "300"
+ php_upload_max_filesize: "256M"
+ php_packages:
+ - php
+ - php-fpm
+ - php-acpu
+ - role: geerlingguy.apache-php-fpm
+ - role: community.zabbix.zabbix_web
+ zabbix_api_server_url: zabbix.mydomain.com
+ zabbix_server_hostname: zabbix-server
+ zabbix_server_database: mysql
+ zabbix_server_database_long: mysql
+ zabbix_server_dbport: 3306
+ zabbix_web_env:
+ LDAPTLS_CACERT: /etc/ssl/certs/ourcert.pem
+```
+
+## Using Elasticsearch for history storage
+
+To use Elasticsearch for history storage you need to configure the `zabbix_server_history_url` and `zabbix_server_history_types`. You will also need to configure Elasticsearch
+in the zabbix_server role.
+
+Zabbix can store the following history types
+in Elasticsearch:
+* Numeric (unsigned) - `uint`
+* Numeric (float) - `dbl`
+* Character - `str`
+* Log - `log`
+* Text - `text`
+
+To store all history types in the same history URL the following variables should be set (make sure history url points to your Elasticsearch cluster):
+
+```
+zabbix_server_history_url: "http://localhost:9200"
+zabbix_server_history_types:
+ - 'str'
+ - 'text'
+ - 'log'
+ - 'uint'
+ - 'dbl'
+```
