References PR #1765.
Docs:
- Added PIHOLEMON to docs/PLUGINS.md and a new "Approach 4" section in
docs/PIHOLE_GUIDE.md, leading with anomaly detection (the actual
differentiator vs PIHOLEAPI) and explaining when to pick each plugin.
- README/PLUGINS.md/config.json's UI-facing description all reordered
and shortened to lead with anomaly detection instead of device
import, and to drop implementation detail that belongs in the
README, not the Settings page.
- Trimmed the "Why not extend PIHOLEAPI" README section per feedback -
useful context for a maintainer, not for an end user configuring
the plugin.
config.json / pihole_monitor.py:
- RUN defaults to "disabled", matching every other non-core plugin.
- VERIFY_SSL split into PRIMARY_VERIFY_SSL / SECONDARY_VERIFY_SSL -
each instance can be http/https independently. Settings reordered so
each *_VERIFY_SSL sits right under its matching *_PASSWORD.
- GRAPHQL_TOKEN removed; graphql_token now reads the core API_TOKEN
setting instead of a plugin-specific duplicate.
- GRAPHQL_URL replaced with a GET_OWNER boolean - the endpoint is now
derived from this app's own GRAPHQL_PORT (single source of truth)
instead of a URL the user had to keep in sync by hand.
- HISTORY_LENGTH (run count) replaced with HISTORY_DAYS (a real time
window): state now stores [timestamp, delta] samples and
trim_history() drops anything older than the window, so the
baseline means the same thing regardless of schedule - a faster
schedule adds more data points instead of shrinking the window.
- STATE_FILE moved from the log folder to dbFolderPath, so the rolling
anomaly baseline survives NetAlertX upgrades instead of being wiped
with the logs.
- netalertx_device_owner() (1 GraphQL call per device) replaced by
netalertx_device_owners() (1 call per run, batched) - avoids N
blocking round-trips on a large network.
- Fixed a zero-baseline bug: `bool(... and baseline and ...)` silently
exempted a device with an all-zero blocked-query history (0.0 is
falsy in Python) from ever being flagged, even on its first real
spike. Now checks `baseline is not None`.
- Fixed the placeholder-MAC filter: only excluded the literal "ip-::",
not Pi-hole's general "ip-<address>" placeholder pattern. Caught
downstream by is_mac() either way, but now the actual placeholder
check does what it looks like it does.
- Fixed a cumulative-counter bug: Pi-hole's /api/stats/top_clients
returns a count that's cumulative since FTL last started, not a
per-interval or daily-resetting one (confirmed against FTL's own
source and long-standing user reports that it doesn't reset at
midnight). Comparing that raw total directly against a rolling
average made any device's ordinary growing traffic look like an
escalating anomaly. compute_delta() now diffs each run's raw count
against the previous run's (state gained a per-key last_raw
reference point alongside the delta history) - None (not 0) on the
first-ever run for a device or right after a counter reset, so
those runs re-anchor the reference point instead of fabricating or
swallowing a delta.
- RUN_SCHD default changed from every 6 hours to every 5 minutes now
that the baseline window is real days, not run count, so a frequent
schedule only adds data points instead of narrowing the window; also
matches the default most other device-scanner plugins use.
- RUN_SCHD gained the same live cron-validity checkmark ARPSCAN and
other scanner plugins use (a ✓/✗ icon next to the field, validated
client-side against a regex) - reuses the existing generic
validateRegex() widget, nothing plugin-specific to build.
Tests: 48 tests (up from 37), 99% line+branch coverage. Every fix
above verified via mutation testing (deliberately broken, confirmed
the relevant test fails, then restored).
- Introduced a new plugin for monitoring website health, including functionality to check URLs and log results.
- Created README and configuration files for the workflows plugin, detailing its purpose and settings.
- Updated import paths in various test files to reflect the new directory structure.
- Ensured compatibility of test cases with the updated plugin architecture.
- Added db_history.py to manage DevicesHistory table and triggers for INSERT and UPDATE operations.
- Created device_history_instance.py for querying and grouping DevicesHistory records.
- Developed change_history.php for displaying device change history with filtering and pagination.
- Introduced skel_device_details_tab_history.php for skeleton loading state in device details tab.
- Added unit tests in test_device_history.py to validate trigger functionality and history management.
- Implemented filter population and pagination in the change history UI.
