How delete custom data from custom Databases?

[mercolino]

Hi, i am trying to write a plugin and i have some troubles about how to delete custom data from custom tables. For example when a device is created I write some custom data in a custom table created just for this plugin.

But when I delete the device choosing actions I can't delete the data wrote by the plugin to the database related to de device that I want to delete. I thought that maybe device_action_execute could do the job, but with a quick review to host.php is called only when you add something new to the actions array and do not work with the default actions...

There is a way to do this or a workaraund or someone had the same problem and manage to get through of this?


Thanks

Please send a PM to Cigamit. I have the same issue presently with another plugin development and need the same hook.

However, Cigamit needs to add to other sections of the code (hosts, data sources, graphs), and needs to do this consistently.

There currently isn't a hook for everything, as they have been added on an as needed basis so far. I will see about adding a hook for the next PA to do this.

An easy work around would be to hook into top_header, page_header, etc... and check for the correct page and $_REQUEST variable combination, then remove the items you need to remove.
