Zabbix Partitioning Tests

This directory contains a Docker-based test environment for the Zabbix Partitioning script.

Prerequisites

• Docker & Docker Compose
• Python 3

Setup & Run

1. Start the database container:

   docker compose up -d
   

   This will start a MySQL 8.0 container and import the Zabbix schema.

2. Create valid config (done automatically): The test_config.yaml references the running container.

3. Run the partitioning script:

   # Create virtual environment if needed
   python3 -m venv venv
   ./venv/bin/pip install pymysql pyyaml
   
   # Dry Run
   ./venv/bin/python3 ../../partitioning/zabbix_partitioning.py -c test_config.yaml --dry-run --init
   
   # Live Run
   ./venv/bin/python3 ../../partitioning/zabbix_partitioning.py -c test_config.yaml --init
   

Cleanup

docker compose down
rm -rf venv
