[2.3.0] Checkmk Werk 16259 deleted: Changed local override mechanism for Checkmk plugins

by Checkmk werks level 1

Werk 16259 was deleted. The following Werk is no longer relevant. Title: Changed local override mechanism for Checkmk plugins Class: feature Compatible: incomp Component: checks Date: 1700031909 Edition: cre Level: 1 Version: 2.3.0b1 This Werk affects users that have modified existing plugins shipped with Checkmk (or intend to do so in the future). Other plugins are not affected by this change. In Checkmk, users can "hide" shipped plugin files by putting a corresponding file with the same path in the sites <tt>local/</tt> folder. Checkmk will always prefer the files found there over the shipped ones, allowing users to effectively "patch" a sites plugins. While this mechanism probably will continue to work (maybe), it is discouraged and no longer supported. Users that want to modify, replace or extend an existing plugin are advised to make a copy of the plugin, give it a new name and disable the shipped one in the Setup. We believe this step is necessary in order to provide a good user experience for plugin developers and a smooth upgrade process for plugin users. These are the main reasons: <ul> <li> While the APIs for plugin development deliberately do not care about the files names the plugins are in, the current mechanism works based on a file name. This effectively makes the file name part of the APIs. Strictly speaking, moving a plugin to a different file (or splitting large files up) would require an incompatible Werk, as it might break users local overrides. This was mostly not done in the past, and is not sustainable in the future. (Also the Werk only alerts users to the problem, they would still have to deal with it). </li> <li> In the wake of new APIs for plugin development (corresponding Werks will follow), plugins will be moved to new locations in the filesystem a lot, exacerbating the above problem. </li> <li> One of the advantages of the future APIs will be that plugins are bundled by their topic (e.g. all plugins related to Kubernetes might be found in <tt>cmk/plugins/kube</tt>, be it special agents, WATO rulespecs, check plugins or graph definitions). As a result, some changes to the plugin loading mechanism have to be made, resulting in hard to predict results if combined with the above shadowing mechanism. </li> </ul>
