<h1 id="plugins-implementation-details">Plugins Implementation Details</h1>
<p>Plugins provide data to the NetAlertX core, which processes it to detect changes, discover new devices, raise alerts, and apply heuristics.</p>
<hr />
<h2 id="overview-plugin-data-flow">Overview: Plugin Data Flow</h2>
<ol>
<li>Each plugin runs on a defined schedule.</li>
<li>Aligning all plugin schedules is recommended so they execute in the same loop.</li>
<li>During execution, all plugins write their collected data into the <strong><code>CurrentScan</code></strong> table.</li>
<li>After all plugins complete, the <code>CurrentScan</code> table is evaluated to detect <strong>new devices</strong>, <strong>changes</strong>, and <strong>triggers</strong>.</li>
</ol>
<p>Although plugins run independently, they contribute to the shared <code>CurrentScan</code> table.
To inspect its contents, set <code>LOG_LEVEL=trace</code> and check for the log section:</p>
<pre><code>================ CurrentScan table content ================
</code></pre>
<hr />
<h2 id="configjson-lifecycle"><code>config.json</code> Lifecycle</h2>
<p>This section outlines how each plugin’s <code>config.json</code> manifest is read, validated, and used by the core and plugins.
It also describes plugin output expectations and the main plugin categories.</p>
<div class="admonition tip">
<p class="admonition-title">Tip</p>
<p>For detailed schema and examples, see the <a href="../PLUGINS_DEV/">Plugin Development Guide</a>.</p>
</div>
<hr />
<h3 id="1-loading">1. Loading</h3>
<ul>
<li>On startup, the core loads <code>config.json</code> for each plugin.</li>
<li>The file acts as a <strong>plugin manifest</strong>, defining metadata, runtime configuration, and database mappings.</li>
</ul>
<hr />
<h3 id="2-validation">2. Validation</h3>
<ul>
<li>The core validates required keys (for example, <code>RUN</code>).</li>
<li>Missing or invalid entries may be replaced with defaults or cause the plugin to be disabled.</li>
</ul>
<hr />
<h3 id="3-preparation">3. Preparation</h3>
<ul>
<li>Plugin parameters (paths, commands, and options) are prepared for execution.</li>
<li>Database mappings (<code>mapped_to_table</code>, <code>database_column_definitions</code>) are parsed to define how data integrates with the main app.</li>
</ul>
<hr />
<h3 id="4-execution">4. Execution</h3>
<ul>
<li>
<p>Plugins may run:</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>On a fixed schedule.</p>
</li>
<li>Once at startup.</li>
<li>After a notification or other trigger.</li>
<li>The scheduler executes plugins according to their <code>interval</code>.</li>
</ul>
<hr />
<h3 id="5-parsing">5. Parsing</h3>
<ul>
<li>Plugin output must be <strong>pipe-delimited (<code>|</code>)</strong>.</li>
<li>The core parses each output line following the <strong>Plugin Interface Contract</strong>, splitting and mapping fields accordingly.</li>
</ul>
<hr />
<h3 id="6-mapping">6. Mapping</h3>
<ul>
<li>Parsed fields are inserted into the plugin’s <code>Plugins_*</code> table.</li>
<li>
<p>Data can be mapped into other tables (e.g., <code>Devices</code>, <code>CurrentScan</code>) as defined by:</p>
</li>
<li>
<p><code>database_column_definitions</code></p>
</li>
<li><code>mapped_to_table</code></li>
</ul>
<p><strong>Example:</strong> <code>Object_PrimaryID → devMAC</code></p>
<hr />
<h3 id="6a-plugin-output-contract">6a. Plugin Output Contract</h3>
<p>All plugins must follow the <strong>Plugin Interface Contract</strong> defined in <code>PLUGINS_DEV.md</code>.
Output values are pipe-delimited in a fixed order.</p>
<h4 id="identifiers">Identifiers</h4>
<ul>
<li><code>Object_PrimaryID</code> and <code>Object_SecondaryID</code> uniquely identify records (for example, <code>MAC|IP</code>).</li>
</ul>
<h4 id="watched-values-watched_value14">Watched Values (<code>Watched_Value1–4</code>)</h4>
<ul>
<li>Used by the core to detect changes between runs.</li>
<li>Changes in these fields can trigger notifications.</li>
</ul>
<h4 id="extra-field-extra">Extra Field (<code>Extra</code>)</h4>
<ul>
<li>Optional additional value.</li>
<li>Stored in the database but not used for alerts.</li>
</ul>
<h4 id="helper-values-helper_value13">Helper Values (<code>Helper_Value1–3</code>)</h4>
<ul>
<li>Optional auxiliary data (for display or plugin logic).</li>
<li>Stored but not alert-triggering.</li>
</ul>
<h4 id="mapping">Mapping</h4>
<ul>
<li>While the output format is flexible, the plugin’s manifest determines the destination and type of each field.</li>
</ul>
<hr />
<h3 id="7-persistence">7. Persistence</h3>
<ul>
<li>Parsed data is <strong>upserted</strong> into the database.</li>
<li>Conflicts are resolved using the combined key: <code>Object_PrimaryID + Object_SecondaryID</code>.</li>
</ul>
<hr />
<h2 id="plugin-categories">Plugin Categories</h2>
<p>Plugins fall into several functional categories depending on their purpose and expected outputs.</p>
<h3 id="1-device-discovery-plugins">1. Device Discovery Plugins</h3>
<ul>
<li><strong>Inputs:</strong> None, subnet, or discovery API.</li>
<li><strong>Outputs:</strong> <code>MAC</code> and <code>IP</code> for new or updated device records in <code>Devices</code>.</li>
<li><strong>Mapping:</strong> Required – usually into <code>CurrentScan</code>.</li>
<li><strong>Examples:</strong> <code>ARPSCAN</code>, <code>NMAPDEV</code>.</li>
</ul>
<hr />
<h3 id="2-device-data-enrichment-plugins">2. Device Data Enrichment Plugins</h3>
<ul>
<li><strong>Inputs:</strong> Device identifiers (<code>MAC</code>, <code>IP</code>).</li>
<li><strong>Outputs:</strong> Additional metadata (for example, open ports or sensors).</li>
<li><strong>Mapping:</strong> Controlled via manifest definitions.</li>
<li><strong>Examples:</strong> <code>NMAP</code>, <code>MQTT</code>.</li>
</ul>
<hr />
<h3 id="3-name-resolver-plugins">3. Name Resolver Plugins</h3>
<ul>
<li><strong>Inputs:</strong> Device identifiers (<code>MAC</code>, <code>IP</code>, hostname`).</li>
<li><strong>Outputs:</strong> Updated <code>devName</code> and <code>devFQDN</code>.</li>
<li><strong>Mapping:</strong> Typically none.</li>
<li><strong>Note:</strong> Adding new resolvers currently requires a core change.</li>
<li><strong>Examples:</strong> <code>NBTSCAN</code>, <code>NSLOOKUP</code>.</li>
</ul>
<hr />
<h3 id="4-generic-plugins">4. Generic Plugins</h3>
<ul>
<li><strong>Inputs:</strong> Custom, based on the plugin logic or script.</li>
<li><strong>Outputs:</strong> Data displayed under <strong>Integrations → Plugins</strong> only.</li>
<li><strong>Mapping:</strong> Not required.</li>
<li><strong>Examples:</strong> <code>INTRSPD</code>, custom monitoring scripts.</li>
</ul>
<hr />
<h3 id="5-configuration-only-plugins">5. Configuration-Only Plugins</h3>
<ul>
<li><strong>Inputs/Outputs:</strong> None at runtime.</li>
<li><strong>Purpose:</strong> Used for configuration or maintenance tasks.</li>
<li><strong>Examples:</strong> <code>MAINT</code>, <code>CSVBCKP</code>.</li>
</ul>
<hr />
<h2 id="post-processing">Post-Processing</h2>
<p>After persistence:</p>
<ul>
<li>The core generates notifications for any watched value changes.</li>
<li>The UI updates with new or modified data.</li>
<li>Plugins with UI-enabled data display under <strong>Integrations → Plugins</strong>.</li>
</ul>
<hr />
<h2 id="summary">Summary</h2>
<p>The lifecycle of a plugin configuration is:</p>
<p><strong>Load → Validate → Prepare → Execute → Parse → Map → Persist → Post-process</strong></p>
<p>Each plugin must:</p>
<ul>
<li>Follow the <strong>output contract</strong>.</li>
<li>Declare its type and expected output structure.</li>
<li>Define mappings and watched values clearly in <code>config.json</code>.</li>
</ul>
