host sve call to unexistand API_jhook how come ?

Post by Rno »

I try to find why my plugin didn't work as expected (save of new devices dosen't call other hook)!

And I find that when you do a save on a host the function form_save (inside host.php) there is a call to the hook host_save.

Even if the documentation say :
host_save
file introduced retired
host.php 1.0.0

Nothing is saying what it suppose to be different than api_device_save or api_device_new.

So it's not clear for me if I have to register my hook to host_save, or api_device_new or save?
For what I understand api_device_save is before the ID is defined.

But it's look like their is nothing as new (only when a device is added) and called only once

All plugins hooks have to return the $save variable regardless if they change it or not because they cascade from plugin to plugin.

So, what that means is that you have a plugin using that book, that is not returning the save variable.

For those wondering, I'm still here, but lost in the shadows. Yearning for less bugs. Who want's a Cacti 1.3/2.0? Streams anyone?
