New module zabbix_scripts

[rockaut]

SUMMARY

Since 5.4 Zabbix has a central scripts "repository" under Administration > Scripts with different types (actions, hosts, etc.) and accordingly also an API module for that.

It is crucial that we implement a new Ansible Module for this too. As without this module we can not provide support for Zabbix 5.4 and higher at all. For example: we need to create such a central script to reference it as an operation in a trigger action. Without this no trigger action with an script operation can be created. And my guess it, that this is only one example already.

My problem is, that I don't have time and energy to write the whole new module for this currenlty. I will post an comment and help-call on the ansible community channels and will ask the community managers to include our call-for-help in the next Bullhorn newsletter.

@rockaut Is anyone assigned this issue? If not, I'll create this module!

@masa-orca I don't think that this is assigned to anyone. Feel free to work on it if you are interested.

Btw would you be willing to also contribute some zabbix_action fixes that rely on this module for 5.4/6.0? @rockaut described it in the description of this module

@masa-orca I've went ahead and assigned this to you. If you change your mind please let us know.

Many thanks in advance for taking charge! :)
