Modules

什么是 PHP 前端模块？

• 模块是一个实体，具有唯一的 ID、名称、描述、作者和在其清单文件中定义的其他字段，以及位于 Zabbix 前端安装的 modules 目录内的单个目录中的 PHP、Javascript 和其他文件（例如，zabbix/ui/modules）。
• 模块应符合简单的规则以保证正确运行。
• 必须由管理员在前端安装（解压）并启用模块。

What a module can be used for

• Adding new functionality via custom frontend sections;
• Creating custom dashboard widget types (see widget modules);
• Overriding or extending the existing functionality.

What a module cannot be used for

• Registering a new API method or modifying an existing one.

How modules work

• An enabled module is launched on each HTTP request, before executing the action code.
• The module will register new actions or redefine the existing ones.
• The module will add new frontend sections and remove or redefine the existing ones.
• The module will hook to frontend events like onBeforeAction and onTerminate, if needed.
• The requested action is finally executed by running the action code - either the default one, or module-defined.
